Usually, I'm posting depressing threads about how much I suck. Well, not today. I'm feeling pretty good about myself right now. Priscilla the Great: Bring the Pain is currently #9 in the hot new releases for Children's Science Fiction! It's been out six days and it has outsold the other three books in the series combined (this month). Still not huge numbers because it is MG, but still I think it's pretty impressive. Hurry up and look at it before it goes away! http://www.amazon.com/gp/new-releases/books/3351949011/ref=zg_bs_tabJust in case you miss it, here's a screen capture!  |

MG = Middle Grade (books written for a younger age group than say Young Adult, which is YA) Congrats to Sybil though - that's amazing. -jb |

Congrats, I'd better grab that for my daughter. She was rereading the first one a couple of weeks back.

Awesome! How exciting. Congrats. Did you self publish? And, what does "MG" stand for? Yes, I'm self pubbed. I had a publisher for that book but I left them because I thought I could do a better job myself. Now that publisher actually hires me as a consultant on book interior formatting. I make an extra $200 a month from them. I dropped down to #10 for a few hours and now I'm back at 9! |

Usually, I'm posting depressing threads about how much I suck. Well, not today. I'm feeling pretty good about myself right now. Priscilla the Great: Bring the Pain is currently #9 in the hot new releases for Children's Science Fiction! It's been out six days and it has outsold the other three books in the series combined (this month). Still not huge numbers because it is MG, but still I think it's pretty impressive. Hurry up and look at it before it goes away! http://www.amazon.com/gp/new-releases/books/3351949011/ref=zg_bs_tabJust in case you miss it, here's a screen capture! happy dance for u! |
