The last week was amazing for me and my novel, “Species Unknown.” We sold the 1,000th copy on Amazon, a significant milestone for independent authors. Most first-time self-published authors make few sales beyond family and friends. That means they are fortunate if they sell more than 100 copies. For sales of “Species Unknown” to hit 10 times that figure without much advertising beyond word of mouth is wonderful. The news inspired me to kick my work on the sequel up a notch and we’re still hoping for a fall release.
“Species Unknown has consistently been ranked in the Top 10 of Amazon’s Christian Fantasy category for the last month and today has crossed into the Top 20 in Amazon’s Christian Science Fiction category. It’s also been doing great at goodreads.com where today it hit No. 1 in the Christian Science Fiction & Steampunk category.
Reader reviews are needed and very much appreciated. If you’ve read “Species Unknown” and are willing to review it, here are a couple of links where you can do so.
