one-million

I crossed a very special milestone last week.  I’ve sold 1,000,000 books since 2011!!  Nothing quiet feels like selling your first million copies.

Actually I crossed this milestone about a year ago, but that number included a sales promotion.  I wanted this milestone to be indisputable.  To ensure that I’ve crossed the million mark, I haven’t included the promotional sales and sales where I don’t have the royalty statements or the royalty statements were a bit fuzzy.  Excluding sales from all these books is quite a tidy figure so I can categorically say without a shadow of a doubt I have sold one million books.

I am proud and a humbled by this achievement.  It seems crazy to be able to say this.  So if you are partly responsible for this having bought a book of mine, I am forever in your debt.  Thank you.
