Sixty days ago you launched your book. Now it is time to count the orders on Amazon.com awaiting fullfillment, what orders through other sources you have, plus your reckoning of how many you will sell to students in the next year, and you will determine how many copies to order. It takes about 30 days after a book print order is placed to produce, ship and deliver to you (or your designated logistics provider.)

So, at 90 days, you begin shipping your opus magnum.
