My crow is that my first indie release HARMFUL INTENT hit the top 100 in mystery > private investigator at the price of 99 cents and at $1.99 staid there for the first two days of my countdown promo. This was huge for me because my previous four-book series (out with a small publisher) was released in the Christian Fiction category. This was a much larger category and I was actually two behind Lee Child, which gave me a thrill. HARMFUL INTENT has lots of red herrings, twists and turns and a bit of humor, it is also uplifting, but is not Christian fiction. This was a departure and a risk for me, so I'm very, very pleased.Nike Chillemihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13840406107033413597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5704943052235281766.post-60789140722206305352014-07-04T00:52:24.229-06:002014-07-04T00:52:24.229-06:00Very nice.Very nice.Nike Chillemihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13840406107033413597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5704943052235281766.post-61684178636076263902014-07-04T00:51:17.777-06:002014-07-04T00:51:17.777-06:00Way to go.Way to go.Nike Chillemihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13840406107033413597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5704943052235281766.post-28011114426420775212014-07-04T00:50:36.265-06:002014-07-04T00:50:36.265-06:00Isn't it wonderful to see those good reviews.Isn't it wonderful to see those good reviews.Nike Chillemihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13840406107033413597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5704943052235281766.post-7969982115256415822014-07-04T00:48:45.658-06:002014-07-04T00:48:45.658-06:00That is huge.
