Nipping at the Heels of the Great Ones

Posted on March 10, 2013 by Charles Yallowitz

Just leaped to #96 on the Epic Fantasy ebook list. I finally figured out how to look at the part of the list that I’m on and I see this:

96- Me

95- Terry Brooks

94- R.A. Salvatore

I’m wondering if I’m getting higher up here because the big names are more paperback than ebook. I just find it strange that I’m still not at 200 ebook sales and I’m already one place away from Terry Brooks and two away from R.A. Salvatore. Don’t get me wrong, I’m beaming over here, but I thought I’d have at least a year before I ended up on a list with any of these guys.

When he isn't working hard on his epic fantasy stories, Charles can be found cooking or going on whatever adventure his son has planned for the day. 'Legends of Windemere' is his first series, but it certainly won't be his last.

  Apparently. I haven’t even released the sequel, which usually causes the first one to jump onto these lists.

    That would be fun and unexpected. Even if it’s just for an hour, I’d be bragging for days that I got ahead of an extremely popular series that has a connected HBO show.

    Get your digital camera ready, you never know how close you’ll get. And the proof will extend bragging rights for longer than a few days.

    My wife just left the house with the digital camera. Hopefully, she comes back in time.

  Thanks. I’m hoping I can hold on for the rest of the day and earn a few more sales/reviews. I’m actually surprised I’m sitting there with 3 reviews while I’m surrounded by books that have 50+ reviews at least. Though I think I saw a 7.
