Top 100 on Amazon!

As of this morning Amarna I: Ida is in the Top 100 Paid books for both Ancient Historical Fiction and Ancient Middle Eastern Fiction right along with authors such as Wilbur Smith, Elisabeth Storrs, Celeste Barclay, Libbie Hawker, Steven Saylor & Clive Cussler.

Amarna III: Raia is ALSO in the Top 100 Paid for Ancient Historical Fiction.

My poor book II is always so neglected and underrated though people tend to buy all 3 in the series. (laugh) It sits right outside of the Top 100.

Honestly, what it really comes down to is timing. These lists change quickly. Hourly to be precise. Book II just wasn't purchased enough within the same time period as the Book I & III buys and thus didn't make the time cut off for the ranking update.

So, "technically" I am and have been an Amazon Bestselling Author quite a few times. However, I'm not one who is quick to change my covers and bios to say so as I tend to jump off and on the lists.

When I have a book that stays in the Top 100 for at least a week, then I'll consider it.

Still, it's fun to see and laugh about.

Cheers!

Amarna Books: Amazon Top 100 Bestsellers UPDATE

I finally caught them!

Right now, all three Amarna books (Amarna Book I: Book of Ida , Amarna Book II: Book of Hawara & Amarna Book III: Book of Raia) are on the Top 100 Kindle Paid for both Ancient Historical Fiction & Middle Eastern Historical Fiction on Amazon US!

Amarna I has also hit a foreign Top 100 list! Which one? Keep reading to find out.

In addition, Amarna I has snuck its way onto the Top 100 UK for Middle Eastern Historical Fiction...at 29! My highest Top 100 ranking EVER.

That puts me on three different Amazon Top 100 Paid Bestseller lists in 2 different countries.
Not bad for a little ole indie of color. (wink)

How am I doing this?

No idea!

But if you're curious as to what all the fuss is about, you could always go over to Amazon, Kobo, Barnes & Noble, Smashwords, etc., buy your own copy and see for yourself. (wink)

Now if only I could figure out how to get my Fantasy/Horror Titles onto some of these lists. (laugh)

While it's pretty entertaining when I beat the likes of James Clavell, Libbie Hawker, James A. Michener, Noah Gordon and Steven Pressfield (and that a day or so ago, I was even ahead of Anne Rice), I still won't consider myself a "bestselling author" until I earn enough to live off of my book earnings alone.

Still, it's a great laugh and quite exciting.

Thank you to GOD for always supporting your wayward charge...even when I don't deserve it; and thank you everyone out there with just enough questionable taste to invest in my work (AKA those who love my books enough to buy them)!
