According to the Beginning of a Hero Amazon page, my book has reached it’s one month mark. Though, my behind-the-scenes page says the one month anniversary of the debut is tomorrow. I’m going to make two posts with one tonight before I go to bed and the other tomorrow night before I go to bed just to cover all bases. Here is what I accomplished in one month of e-book publishing:

I made my advertising costs and cover art cost back for the first book. I’m leaning toward starting the sequel at $1.99 when it’s ready to go since I had this kind of debut. Fingers are crossed that the momentum will keep going.Thank you to everyone who supported me through this and enjoyed this first adventure into Windemere.

I’m still a Luke fan though I love Stiletto. I love animals 🙂

I think Stiletto has more fans than anybody else in that book. I would have put money on Fizzle, but everyone loves Stiletto. Guess the plus side is that nobody has outright hated any of the characters. At least the ones that aren’t supposed to be hated.

🙂 I have to compliment how amazing you are at detailing your scenes. I swear it took me forever to get through it not because it was bad but because it was amazing. I had to pay close attention to every detail so I could see the picture and it was very clear. You did a fantastic job.

That I am and I honestly admit that I didn’t expect this. I made a plan that revolved around this type of explosion happening after book 2 or 3 debuted. I’m still in a little shock about this, especially now that reviews are showing up from people that I don’t know.
