I am thrilled by this first month’s sales. I sold 15 books personally (mostly friends and relatives), 25 on CreateSpace, 28 on Kindle and one autographed book from my website. Amazingly, a third of the online sales were from Europe.
For a newly published author, sixty-nine books in the first month is, in my opinion, a great start. More importantly, I have six reviews and a 4.5 rating on Amazon. For a while, the book was rated #76 on Amazon in Travel/ Europe /Spain. What a delight that was for me!
As my readers talk about the book, I am sure others will want to read it. Word of mouth is very powerful. I will have to wait until the end of this month to see just how much so.
