It also topped out as #1 for Suspense fiction and #1 in Occult fiction before it began its retreat from the top ten.
In about a week's time, this short book of mine has been downloaded over 34,000 times by readers on Amazon. Together with downloads from Smashwords, Barnes & Noble, Sony and a few other online stores, the short tale of Obsidion, Monserrat and the other Night Walkers, has been snagged in digital form a total of over 44,000 times.
That blows my mind.
I want to thank everyone who had a hand in getting those copies out to readers and everyone who has shared a tweet, a Facebook mention, or a kind word about the story itself. Not everyone digs it, but most people seem to think it's some of the best writing I've done.
And I'm not done. Not by a long shot with this world.
Have I mentioned this story is merely the prologue to a multi-layered, ongoing saga? The first book is coming along nicely and I hope to have some of it to preview shortly. In the meantime, I offer my thanks and appreciation for this milestone and hope you'll have a look at some of my other stories.
Wonderful; I love seeing blogger world making a difference.
ReplyDeleteAnother book to put on my list of Jason McIntyre reads. I've bought 3 of your books, but haven't had time to read them yet *hangs head in shame* I will though; and I'm sure I will enjoy this novella too.

Ah, Donna, you're wonderful. Whether you get to reading them or not, I thank you for endlessly dropping into this site and sharing your wisdom and support.
ReplyDeleteIt is exciting to see tweets and Facebook mentions help to make a difference, isn't it? A year ago I might have scoffed at such an idea.
Get The Night Walk Men from Amazon soon -- I have no idea when or if that site will slap a price back on it (that is, of course, if the Kindle format is your format of choice. The story is free almost everywhere else on the web).
My goodness, that's a whole lot of downloads! What a great treat for your readers - those who've read your work already, and those who will be introduced to it with "The Night Walk Men."
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Jason! Keep them coming!

Awesome news, Jason! I hope you've gained lots of new readers for your other work. And I cannot wait to read the next installment of The Night Walk Men!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Eden, I'm trying!
ReplyDeleteDarcia, thanks, I appreciate your words. So glad you liked The Night Walk Men.
ReplyDeleteThat's FANTASTIC!! Wow. So many copies. I'm so glad to hear that, Jason. :)
