It’s been exactly one (short) month since Eros and Ethos was released and it seems like a good time to talk about how things are going. In short, they’re going well.
As you can see in the graph (click to make it bigger), the ebook (orange) launched first and sold well. The paperback (grey) launched after and has been holding steady. Amazon reports paperback sales on the day they ship, so there’s a lag for the books to print and ship reflected in the data. Interestingly, the majority of sales (63%) are ebook and 37% are paperback. In total, there have been 62 total sales in only 28 days, which is a solid start.
Reviews are all very good so far. The book is currently at 4.8/5 stars with 7 reviews. Reviews at this stage are critical for helping to pick up new readers that may not be familiar with my work, so if you’ve already read it, please leave me a review. Even just a couple of sentences is enough and it makes a big difference.
All signed and numbered copies have been shipped. If you have not received yours, please contact me.
Numbered copies are half sold and I’m currently sold out of signed copies (with more coming soon!).
All in all, I’m pretty happy with the launch and I look forward to increasing sales as word of the book spreads.
If you haven’t gotten your copy yet, now’s the time!
Update!
I forgot to add, in the original post, that there will be an audiobook coming out (hopefully) by the end of the month. It is in production right now and everything seems to be on track.
