Those of you who are curious about whether Amazon book rankings are a good measure of selling success might be interested in this story:
On January 30th, my Amazon ranking was 352,039. Two days later two of my books were sold through Amazon—just two (as far as I can tell), but within just hours of each other.
My Amazon ranking shot to 6,093.
So it’s kind of cool to find yourself with a high ranking, but it’s not a measure that you’re rolling in new readers.
Just the same, I’ll still shoot for number one when “No Campfire, Girls” comes up in a couple of months!

- 1 Dec 2020, 17:49This sounds like it's worth having even if you're only a casual Oz fan. (I've read all the Baum books at least once but none of the others.) I still insist the slippers should be silver! And of…
