Second printings …

• Posted in About Books, On Writing

I have some more cool news to announce — both Spider’s Bite and Web of Lies have gone into small second printings. Huzzah!

So what does this mean? Well, basically that sales of both titles have been steady enough for my publisher to print more copies of the book beyond the initial print runs. In other words, there have been enough sales/interest that my publisher printed additional books in hopes of selling even more of them.

Admittedly, my initial print runs weren’t very large — certainly nowhere near the hundreds of thousands or even millions of books that are printed for the big-name authors like Nora Roberts or J.K. Rowling. Still, this is the first time that any of my books have gone into second printings, which is really cool.

I just want to say thanks to all the readers out there for making this possible. I write the books, but you guys buy them, and I appreciate everyone’s interest in the Elemental Assassin series and all the positive e-mails and comments that I’ve gotten from readers. I hope you guys enjoy Venom when it comes out on Sept. 28 even more than the first two books.

For those of who you didn’t like the books, I appreciate you giving them a chance in the first place. I know my books aren’t for everyone, and that’s cool too. Different strokes for different folks, and all that.

Anyway, I’m doing the happy dance. 😉

      It’s too early to tell, since I still have three more books that haven’t come out yet. If VENOM and TANGLED THREADS do well, then maybe. But it will all come down to sales. The second printings are a good sign, but I’ve still got my fingers crossed, especially with the economy still as craptastic as it is.

    In this economy? That’s great! I know your books are great, and I’m glad other people are sharing my opinion as well.
