Still tired, but good news

Jul 17, 2006

Still wasted from the trip. I’m hoping to post the blog about the last two signings tomorrow. We’re number two on the New York Times list; number one at Publisher’s Weekly; number one at the Wall Street Journal; number one at most, or all of the chain stores (truthfully I’d have to check back through messages from my editor to be certain, so I’ll say what I’m certain of); number three on the USA Today list. DANSE MACABRE has done really well. It’s sold about 40 percent better than the last hardback, INCUBUS DREAMS, and one message from someone said 50 percent better, but I’m not certain of that. INCUBUS DREAMS sold darn well, so to have a leap of that much for DANSE MACABRE is truly cool. Jon and I are off to bed now.
