Today is the Day! Time for the Curse of the Spider King Amazon Blitz!

Today is the day!
October 7th
Now is the time! 


If you are planning to purchase Curse of the Spider King, would you consider preordering from Amazon TODAY, Wednesday, Oct. 7th? We are trying to get Spider King to climb (pun intended) high on the Amazon Bestseller List. 

Free signed bookplates for all who purchase Spider King on this day. Plus: If you're in on the Tribebuilding Contest, you get mega points for ordering on this day. Multiple copies count! lol

Please reply to this post if you "Blitzed Amazon" and purchased a copy of Curse of the Spider King today! And, if you get a chance, see what Curse of the Spider King's Sales Rank is up to and POST IT here on this thread.

As of 10pm on Oct. 6th (Blitz Eve), the ranking for CotSK was as you see below. 
 
Well done, so far you've helped CotSK increase its ranking: 59,165 places!!! Now it's at 10,947!
Correction, now it's at 2,217! AMAZING! 
Correction, as of 3pm EST, it's at 1,727! Spectacular! Come on folks, pour it on! 
This is getting crazy. The # is dropping by the hour. It's 5pm EST, and the number is now down to 1,426! People are emailing me with receipts of 3, 4, 5, even 8 book purchases! You are very generous and dedicated to jump in with both feet like this! 

And thank you so much for supporting us on this adventure. All glory goes to Jesus.

    One question: I'm giving one copy to my friend for his birthday, it's in one week and he just moved to Washington DC, so I don't have to send that to my house first for him to get the sticker and for me to get the extra points, do I? I don't really mind sending it to me first it will just cost a little for shipping and he'll probably get it a little late. Thanks...

  15. #1,632!! Isle of Fire peaked at #1,628. Come on, just a little more! (not that it'll stop there...)

  16. Whoa Cson! Good memory! That's exactly right.

    Isle of Swords did get the highest, however. After that Fox TV interview, Isle of Sword got as high as 369th.

    I'm praying for even better for Curse of the Spider King. I get 50 free promotional copies of the book but I'm going to buy a few copies just to invest in the work!

    Don't forget to tell friends, family, neighbors! Today's the day. Make Christopher and My hands sore from signing free bookplate stickers. lol

  17. People are getting CRAZY now, purchasing 2 and 3 books at a time. This is too cool. The # is down to 1,426 now.

    ReplyDelete
  18. 369th!? Wow! That's even better than Ted Dekker's young adult books. Do you know where The Door Within Trilogy books peaked? I can't find the info anywhere... I didn't even know you existed back then, lol.

    369... that would be SO awesome if CotSK got there! We can do it!

    This is GREAT... I was a little worried at the start of the day... the ranking was really down but now I have much more hope... I don't think we'll make the top 100 but I sure am hoping so.

    And who knows, maybe as evening approaches and people get home from work and finish with school, they'll have time to do what they've been meaning to do all day: buy the book. Sales could rocket by nightfall. Who knows?

    Endurance and Victory, Mr. Batson,

  25. DaughterofLight, Vivian, Jason, LastOlympian, and MelissaRose, thank you so much for being a part of the blitz. This is so fun...except I'm not getting any writing done b/c I keep checking Amazon. lol

    And Cson, The Door Within never got that low. I think the best ever for it was in the low 3-5,000ths.

  29. So glad to hear the book is doing well. I have been praying about it. I had my mom order a book for me, also. I live overseas so I will have to wait until the end of November to get it. I will be visiting the states then. I just finished Isle of Fire. Loved the book and loaned it out already. Looking forward to this one.
