Millard, you are continuing your rise up the short story chart - when I went to look to see where I was, you were at 14, which is a page better than my position.

My short story Porch Swings is on the second page of the top "selling" free short stories, in its second promotion day:

# Amazon Best Sellers Rank: #992 Free in Kindle Store (See Top 100 Free in Kindle Store)
    * #27 in Kindle Store > Kindle eBooks > Fiction > Short Stories

So far, free promotions and/or obscure categories seems the way to go for breaking into the top 100...

Went free this morning and woke up to two bestseller rankings!  We'll see if they stick around when it's back to $3.99 -- I hope so!  My book is Young Adult so it fits into the weird "Children's Fiction" category on the Kindle Store. :-)

Yeah, free has been kind to me so far. You're not doing so bad yourself either  Grin

I just squeaked onto that sweet list below at no. 100.  Sweet.  It's getting harder and harder to get a seat on that bus.

I posted on my short ghost story The Point early this morning, and normally wouldn't bother posting a second time.  But...

Amazon Best Sellers Rank: #763 Free in Kindle Store (See Top 100 Free in Kindle Store)
    #5 in Kindle Store > Kindle eBooks > Fiction > Genre Fiction > Horror > Ghosts

Never got that high with paid titles or with the 3-day freebie promo of "They're Waiting" in Select at the end of December.  The rank won't last, of course, but breaking 1000 in total free and 10 in a category feels kinda nice.

My two books are aimed at beginner ukulele players (one is the follow on to the other) and both are doing rather well.

In the UK, this book  - http://www.amazon.co.uk/What-Ukulele-Players-Really-ebook/dp/B004JN11WK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1328784147&sr=8-1 is ranked number 13 in all music reference books, and 23 in Kindle Music books.

The follow up book - http://www.amazon.co.uk/More-Ukulele-Players-Really-ebook/dp/B0075KOZF4/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1328784147&sr=8-4 is number 20 in all music reference books, and 29 in Kindle music books

Over the pond, the first book is top 100, and the other is jumping in and out of it!

Thanks to anyone who supported them

My crime thriller, 'Run, Run, Run', is #1 in Thrillers at Amazon UK at the moment. Hardly made a dent in the States though. Would love to hear what Americans think of it.
