I'm trippin, dudes and dudettes.

The book that started as a short short right here on ATS is now #87 in Post-Apocalyptic Science Fiction at Amazon in the UK.

Wasn't expecting that! Dunno why, but UKers are digging it!

Best Christmas present ever for me, for sure!

As fellow writer and an aspiring author myself, allow me to say, CONGRATULATIONS THAT IS AWESOME!!!


I'm actually going through my first-ever period of writers' block. Have you ever had that problem? What did you do to get out of it or did it resolve on its own?

Thanks, thanks guys, it is exciting as hell, especially seeing as it's my first book. And ATS had everything to do with it.

So congrats to all of US!

Thanks so much!

And yes, for sure there are times when I've had that. I think what helped me get through it was just not rushing it. It took me nearly two years to complete that book, in my spare time, after work. If it was flowing, then I'd write- but if not- I'd just do something else.

But I tell yas, even if that book doesn't move one single notch higher than 87, I am extremely pleased.

My heart-felt congratulations with your recent success, to say nothing of the hard work all the research and keyboard tapping must have taken. I trust you will inform your fellow ATS members of the time and place of the celebratory party with free drink(s) and cookies. However...

Cough cough

Santa. Santa likes parties too....

AWESOME!!! congratz man im gonna buy a copy after christmas.
Sure is cool to an ats member on the best seller list.

lol, well as quick as it came, it's now gone from the list, and back out of the top 100.


And that's why I took the screenie, for posterity.

Those spots are continually changing, several times per hour. You have to sell copies like a mad dog to maintain a spot or climb higher. So if there's a lull in sales, you drop like a lead balloon.

BUT, seeing as I am hovering around 100 or so, give or take, it does put me in a position for more sales, and then- back up the ladder we go!

Kinda fun- but grueling.
