Sometimes We Ran - 7 Years Published
It was seven years ago. I sat in a darkened hotel room at a car show (RIP F-Body Gathering) with my finger over the link to my Kindle publishing account. A few hours ago my book, Sometimes We Ran: A Story from the Zombie Apocalypse, had gone live and was for sale.
I hesitated. Would anyone buy my book? Would anyone pay their hard-earned $2.99 for my words? Would I be cursed by the dreaded zero sales for the month? I had to check.
With my heart actually pounding, I tapped the link. My account loaded up, and I went to the sales report. Two people had bought my book in those early hours. Two people were reading the words I wrote. I was actually selling a book on Amazon. The rest of the day just flew by.
Sometimes We Ran: A Story from the Zombie Apocalypse will be set to the low price of .99 cents to mark the occasion. And to the two people who bought my book in those early hours, you made a nervous first time author extremely happy.
Oh...my car also won a trophy at that car show. It was a great weekend.:)
