I woke up this morning to five book sales in Australia. This was a complete read-through of the Olympic Cove series and a purchase of Breaker Zone, which is #2 in Olympic Cove so I can hope that the reader will like it enough to buy the rest of the books in the series.

As I said in the title of this blog post, it’s still early days into this change and I don’t want to be cheering just quite yet. But in 2023 I made US$43.47 in royalties from Australia and US$58.27 from Canada. The bulk of both those amounts came from KU reads, not actual book sales. As of today I’ve made US$41.96 from Australia and $US30.84 from Canada, and the bulk of that money did come from ebook sales. Seeing as it’s only July 2, I find this significant.

Oh, and I’m $54 away from passing last year’s Amazon income. Once again, it’s only the second day of July. Seeing as I just released a book, will be releasing another one in August as well as the series omnibus, and will (please God) release two more books in the Paladins of Crystal series this year, I don’t think it’s impossible to think that I may well double last year’s income.
