Breaking Into the Top 100

_________________________________________________________

So this happened:

Amazon Best Sellers Rank: #6,398 Paid in Kindle Store (See Top 100 Paid in Kindle Store)

     #93 in Kindle Store > Kindle eBooks > Literature & Fiction > African American > Women's Fiction

     #97 in Books > Literature & Fiction > African American > Women's Fiction

     #169 in Kindle Store > Kindle eBooks > Literature & Fiction > African American > Urban

This is in relation to my first book, The Dumb Bitch.  Just doing the math, with something like 8 million books on Amazon, a rank of 6398 puts my book in the top .10%.  (That's the top tenth of the top 1%.) And on top of that, I broke into the Top 100 in a couple of categories.

Needless to say, I've uber-excited since seeing that ranking this morning.  It seems that readers are really liking not just the first book, but also the second in the series, A Ratchet City Tale 2: Dee's Story. It makes me all the more eager to finish the third book, which I hope to release in a few weeks.
