Success! 5,000 Books Sold!

If you are new here, I am a big advocate for defining success for yourself. And part of that is breaking it down into more digestible chunks so you can give yourself a sense of accomplishment. I do this, and announce my little victories on here.

So this post I am celebrating a huge success being ticked off!

I Have Sold 5,000 Copies of My Books!

I can remember my first year doing this, where I only sold 136 books. When my second book launch sold less books than my first. There were times where I thought it would take me a decade or more to sell a thousand, much less five thousand. But thanks to my family, friends, and fans I have ticked this box, and my fat little heart has swelled three sizes this day.
