Figure I’ll post how Prodigy of Rainbow Tower is doing. 34 sales so far and it looks like the advertising sites haven’t kicked in yet. So, another big thank you to everyone who participated in the blog blitz. I’m not on any of the big Top 100 lists, but I’m at the following:
10,463 overall ranking
#25 on Hot New Epic Fantasy Kindle Releases
#28 on Hot New Sword & Sorcery Kindle Releases
#44 on Hot New Action & Adventure Kindle Releases
Beginning of a Hero is still hanging around 50,000 area, but I figure it needs Prodigy of Rainbow Tower to rise in popularity before it gets truly affected. Still, this is less than 2 days being live, so I think it’s a success so far.
Today, I try to go back to my usual poetry and story-related posts. Maybe start doing some origins for the cities or flush out some future ideas. Or I could just sleep through the day since I’m still exhausted.
That’s awesome. I did 50 in my first week, then the blog thing kicked in and it went up. I bet in a few days your books will explode!!!!

The weekend should help. The advertising sites should have my pages up by then. I got into the 7,000 area yesterday and the top 100 people are in the 4,000 area, so I came close. I have too much fun watching my book hang around the greats.

You’ve sold more in your first day than I did in my first year. I’d call that a win.

Great news Charles! I think the resting idea sounds great! I am planning on going back to bed here shortly, just got up to maintain some sort of schedule. Maybe relax and just watch some TV… hmmm this sounds like an okay plan… I might steal it for myself 🙂

I’ve been off of tv for so long that I don’t even know where to start. I might just nap and edit one of my other books, which is rest for me. Nice leisurely pace.

Thanks. I’m going to avoid checking the rankings and sales stats until lunch. If the first time around taught me anything, it’s that I’m due for a sudden slow down. The advertising sites should kick in by the weekend.

Congratulations Charles! I vote for sleep – or some form of relaxation – too! But it is hard to turn off the brain after all that activity, isn’t it?

It really is. I think I’m going to do some editing after biking and taking a walk for vodka sauce supplies. Just wander through the week until the weekend.
