Older Title Continues In Form

Every now and then I remember to slide through KDP and take a look at my sales stats. Nothing glorious, but steady: a tank of gas here, a nice lunch there. Since it cost me nothing to produce the ebooks, I'm happy.

Interestingly, the last book I put up just this year, (my children's title Spotted Flower and the Ponokomita) has quickly zipped to the top of my sales charts, I'm sure this is in part due to my getting in on the ground floor when Paula Haataja launched Cheap Daily Reads – Junior, a neat site set up for kids to easily navigate and with books just for them.

But the book has always garnered sales since it first came out a few decades ago. Now in a third printing, I have to chuckle at its longevity. Perhaps that's because it's a history story, although I have two other history books not nearly so popular. Spotted Flower was my first published book, and I couldn't be more pleased to see it still doing well.
