KamikazePotato 11/30/21 1:25:28 AM #257:	Peace___Frog posted... Congratulations! Holly shit, that's some stellar company Thanks! I'm enjoying my screenshot fun while it lasts, as after today, things get a bit dicey. Next few days are going to be crucial. On the 30th (essentially, in 2 hours) Defiance of the Fall 3 releases on amazon, which is probably the 2nd-biggest LitRPG series on the market right now. On December 1st, Mother of Learning releases, which is the top-rated series on Royal Road. Both are going to hit Kindle like a freight train. https://www.amazon.com/Defiance-Fall-3-LitRPG-Adventure-ebook/dp/B09BLG8D3D/ https://www.amazon.com/Mother-Learning-ARC-1-nobody103-ebook/dp/B09M2R6QLF/ I'm glad that my Book 2 came out swinging, because those two releases are definitely going to eat into my launch to a certain degree. Defiance 3 probably starts ranking higher than me (although I should be competitive), and Mother of Learning...not sure. It's going to be big, but it's not Kindle Unlimited, which means its thankfully not as big of a competition as it would be otherwise. The main advantage I have now is that I released earlier by a little bit - which was intentional. I used to be releasing on Dec 2nd. Wasn't happy about Defiance of the Fall 3 coming out a few days prior to my book, but I was willing to roll with it until Mother of Learning announced its release date out of nowhere like, two weeks ago. Then I had to get out of dodge. Rushing to get everything prepared for a Nov 29nd released instead of a Dec 2nd release was...interesting! --- It's Reyn Time. <cite>KamikazePotato posted [p:960480622] in I publishe...

KamikazePotato 11/30/21 1:57:37 AM #259:	Generally, you want your Book 2 to come out within three months of Book 1. This helps build and retain series momentum. I also used to be releasing on Dec 9th, away from Defiance 3, and gradually moved the launch period up for various algorithm reasons. And it would've been fine without Mother of Learning randomly choosing to release on Dec 1st for no discernible reason (the two following weeks were clear of competition). --- It's Reyn Time. <cite>KamikazePotato posted [p:960481089] in I publishe...

KamikazePotato 12/09/21 7:44:09 PM #267:	Alas, the sexy werewolves have overtaken me at this time. At least the most popular sexy werewolf books have. I'll accept the consolation prize of beating most of them. In other news, Amazon shit the bed yesterday when its servers went down.
