The Insecure Writer's Support Group


The first Wednesday of a new month means it's time for another round of Insecure Writer's Support Group (IWSG) posts. The Insecure Writer's Support Group is a blog hop hosted by Alex J. Cavanaugh, where members share their writerly challenges or successes, and at the same time show some support for their peers.

For today's post, I'll be highlighting a recent achievement. I've been self-publishing my books on Amazon (and more recently Kobo) for close to a year now. And in all that time, I finally managed to cross my first major milestone. As at the first of November, 2012, I'd sold 100 books on Amazon. I know there are those who sell several times that amount on a daily basis. But for me, this is a major milestone indeed.

I'll like to use this opportunity to thank all those who have supported my writing either by buying one of my books, or spreading the word about my new releases. Right now, I have my sights set on the next major milestone down the line. 1000 books. Here's hoping it would come soon enough.
