that Busted comes out. I just visited my local bookstore, but I guess all the people who camped out overnight to get the first copies must have dispersed already.
In celebration of this momentous event, I did what all neurotic authors do and checked my amazon.com rank. And you know what? I’d entered the world of the top one million. Yep, there are no longer a million books out there selling better than mine. If I had time, I’d write a speech to commemorate the occasion.
Trouble is, I wasn’t sure what that ranking really meant. So I searched for info on the amazon sales rankings, and discovered that my ranking means that amazon is shifting at least 0.5 copies per day. This confounds and disturbs me. I want to know which half of the book people are buying. And what is amazon doing with all the leftover halves? I’m wondering if they’ll tell me which half sold best, so that I can try to work out what I did wrong with the other half. Seriously, I’m the first to admit I still have a lot to learn.
But for now I’ll just enjoy the knowledge that it’s out there, its shiny blue cover enticing readers who still aren’t sure which half to buy. Hey, why not buy it all?
Congrats. I haven’t purchased my copy yet, but will at some point this month. And just so you know, I do plan on purchasing both halves of the book.
And what’s this about a new book coming out in 2010?!! Very exciting.
i read the whole book yesterday! It was awesome. I bought it at Barnes n Noble,it looked really good so i bought it! It rox!
