Bits and pieces
I was just having a look at my Kindle sales report for the month to date, to see what was the best-selling title so far. That’s best-selling out of my own collection, you understand, none of my titles is in a real bestseller list, yet. I was very pleased to see that ‘The Saddling’ is top of my list. It is, strangely, followed by ‘Village View – a year on Symi’. I say strangely as the two books could not be further apart. Mind you, there has been a bit of a rush on ‘Symi 85600’ over in the print section, so perhaps people have enjoyed that and wanted more of Symi life in book form.
While all that was going on, I have managed to get ‘Honestly‘ up on Kindle now, and it’s only $0.99p to download. (I am not sure if I need to put the ‘p’ on the end of that price, but it is a Miss P novella, so it seems appropriate.) That went live yesterday, so I will be checking in to my account again soon to see if a) anyone has bought it, b) if anyone leaves a review (in time) and c) if it boosts sales of Remotely. The links to some of these novels/books can be found in the right column over there >> or you can head to my Amazon author page to see the full collection.
That’s book news, in other bits and pieces… We are experiencing cloud as I write this (Thursday morning) and the temperature has dropped a little. Apparently, this isn’t going to last very long, and we’re not expecting rain. I was going to take a walk today (yesterday) and take some more photos, but I spent most of the night awake with a thumping pain in my foot. This started on Wednesday after our stroll up the main road, and I assumed I had pulled a muscle or something. But today my foot had swollen up and the pain increased. I am now thinking it’s a mosquito bite in just the right place to cause the swelling and thus the pain. There’s nothing nasty going on down there, but it does mean I can’t walk very far or dance around, not that I do much of either. I’ve had a similar thing before so am not unduly worried, just annoyed that I am not as mobile as usual.
Anyway, that’s my update for today. I am off to Yialos later today (Friday, do keep up) to meet a friend from way back when. We’ve not seen each other since about 1980, so that should be interesting. A lunch is in order, a visit to the house perhaps and a good old catch-up will fill my day.
