This author thing is a new experience for me, of course, and people are naturally curious as to how it’s going. I’m not on the best seller list, but my status on Amazon varies from 100,000s to the 400,000s in rankings of books sold. That doesn’t count what I’m selling myself via the web site or in person. And I’m flattered by those who’ve posted favorable reviews on my Amazon page.
But, important as sales are, that’s not my sole criterion in assessing how After the Auction
is “going.” I am intrigued by the reactions of readers and SHOCKED that many I’ve heard from like/love it. Why am I shocked? Let’s face it–this is a new venture for me–writing fiction. From the trials and tribulations I’ve had–for instance, not hooking up with any of the myriad of agents I queried–let’s say that I had considerable self-doubt.
