Hi Angelique, thanks for the question.
I think "high sales" is the easy answer but not necessarily the whole one. For me, I'd consider myself successful when I had a core group of fans who really enjoyed my books, my characters, who had lively discussions about the various plots, or who looked forward to a book being set in a particular city, or who cast the books with their own ideas of who the characters were.
Second to writing, I love talking *about* writing, so success to me would be having fans who were really invested in the stories in some way. How many fans or how many books they bought is sort of second to that. :)
Great question!

?Hi Emma, I know I just recently posted a question, however I just finished reading Full Tilt+ All in and I have to say this. You are honestly one of the best authors I've ever seen. Full Tilt was the most heartbreakingly beautiful story ever; I've never in my whole life (in reading) cried that much. I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your honestly my favourite author and you mean so much to me.<3
