I´m still here Trackstar

I went away for a while, but never entirely left. Will try to resume my blogging responsibilities full-throttle. To be honest, I just write less in general these days (have a new job plus spent some time in book-promotion rehab).

I did publish a VaR piece (another one!) recently (had an interesting reply from a famous author-academic, will share with you here shortly). Will run something largish on the impossibility of knowing in finance next month.

Re Lecturing Birds, to be honest I am somewhat disappointed by the sales figures (10k give or take). Given the timeliness of the topic I was hoping for a more receptive response, but hey no one really knows why books sell or don´t sell. I still, naturally, like my humble tome very much.

Will post stuff on the book business, I find it unique in that 99% of the makers of the product can´t make a living out of it. I can´t think of any other business where this applies. And even more puzzling is that people still want to be authors.

Keep in touch.
