The Haunting of Lake Manor Hotel

[Juliana]

Nice!

Edit: And doing okay in Amazon US too:

 

[ratsy]

Thanks Juliana. And the Bookbub didn't run for the US either. Has been a good market for the past few days. Here is the one I was waiting for! The UK site! I hope this spurns on some momentum

*cough*

Currently #492 and #1 in all those categories [UK Amazon].

Not bad for a first go, Ratsy.

Also, it's got a nice orange bestseller banner. (Top book here: Amazon.co.uk: Thaddeus White: Books, Biogs, Audiobooks, Discussions )

I'm not sure what any of this means. Is it to do with Brexit, or something?

Good going ratsy - you've got some good stripes there. It's all a bit numbery for me to understand but I'm guessing it's good !!

Good omen for Wormhole.

Doing even better in Canada today, and up to 27th in the entire paid lists! That is some achievement. Really excellent work, Ratsy.

 

[Droflet]

Wow, Ratsy, that's bloody brilliant.

 

[Jo Zebedee]

Go, go, go! Excitement (a previous day's bookbub tends to peak in the UK in the next few hours, so get screen snapping everyone!)

 

[ratsy]

Cool, thanks for taking screen shots gang! Yeah, it's pretty neat to see it rank so high. I am hoping this translates into continued sales! Today is shaping up pretty good, and it appears that the Aussie site is behind in the bookbub promo and we had a spike of sales there overnight. We are #100 overall there right now! @Droflet can you clap them all on the back for me?

I will never doubt the power of the bookbub. To be honest, I just applied to see how the process worked. I didn't expect them to accept it, especially with only a few reviews. Happy they did.

 

[Droflet]

I don't read e books. When is the paper back coming out?

There seems no rhyme nor reason to their selection criteria. They took Inish with few reviews, but never since despite it having over 50 five star reviews now (across the various sites) and loads of external links, too.

The paperback has been out since the ebook release, but apparently not in Oz. Hmmm.

Tell you what Drof, I'll send you one with your Explorations copies

 

[Droflet]

Cheers Ratsy. I love a good scare. PM me and I'll send you my address. Check that, I'll PM you.

 

[ratsy]

I'll get it from the Contract too, which I will be sending out by the end of the month.

And just a fun screen-shot...you know what sells better than sex? The Haunting of Lake Manor hotel

 

[ratsy]

Well sales have slowed down but still managed a decent amount the day after the Bookbub. Sales are still coming in today slowly, and I attribute this to the top ranking which we still hold. Right now it is 891 overall on Amazon UK and still #1 in 3 categories. I think it will hold the top Anthology spot for a while because the #2 spot is ranked 22,000 overall. Hopefully this helps retain some sales this weekend!

Still getting some Canada sales trickling in and #1 here too.

Now if we could duplicate this in the US...Maybe in a couple months we will have enough volume and reviews to make it there??? *crosses fingers*

 

[Cathbad]

Check that, I'll PM you.

Ratsy for Prime Minister?

 

[ratsy]

At least we will always have this!

 

[ratsy]

We have now been dethroned. Currently sitting at #3 in Horror on Amazon UK. I am super proud to have sat in #1 for 10+ days!

Still sitting in #1 on Canada's site though! Not a lot of sales coming through but the promo has given us new read throughs on the lending service up here, so that's good. We are also on the most wished for list here! Amazon.ca Best Sellers: The most popular items in Anthologies

I hope to run a promo later in July for the US to see what we can do there.

 

[Droflet]

Terrific news, let hope the next one does as well.

Oh I predict some amazing things for Explorations
