I think my numbers are fairly typical of self-published authors. You tend to sell to the people you know, plus a few others here and there, but without mass publication and books in every store in the country, it's hard to sell tons. If I was really motivated I would be submitting it to publishers non-stop... I remember early on thinking 100 would be awesome…but now I’m thinking 500 or 1000 would be good, haha.

No one is modeled after anyone specifically. Before I wrote the book I sat down and made some characters up. I even found pictures of people online that I thought would look like them. I've certainly got ideas for a second...but I know I want to do something unrelated first, sort of prove to myself I can come up with another story/characters. Glad you liked it!

I really enjoyed it. Any of the characters modeled after people you know? So, when does book two of the trilogy come out? Congratulations on a great accomplishment!

The best I ever saw it was in the 20,000s on day one when I sold several. I think it's more an indicator of how well has it sold that specific day than an all-time sales thing. Whenever someone buys it the sales rank shoots to a lower number, and then slowly climbs until another purchase. Yeah, it changes really often.
