I sold my 1,000,000th book with my current publisher, Thomas & Mercer. It’s the product of determination, timing & luck. Thanks to everyone who made this possible. Two million is a long way off so I need everyone to get cracking.

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.
