Normally, I make about 5 sales a day. Today, I'm up to 9 sales, 5 of which are on my $3.99 book. So, I'm just about doubled on sales so far for Christmas.

I'm where I normally am on my one piece out there- 2 sales so far today. Usually I have them overnight, but I had 0 overnight, those 2 during the day so far today .My sales seem to usually happen at night, so we'll see what Christmas night brings for me. Sounds like many on here are doing well today-congrats!

My stuff is a bit X rated and kinky. Think 50 Shadesville. So, I don't expect much on Xmas day. Just not appropriate. I have had a few sales though, which surprises me. The weekend was strong and I'm looking forward to the rest of the week and New Year's when people's thoughts turn to things other than Christmas |

US Sales are decent, but UK sales not so, but seems to me the reports may be a bit slow. One of my books has shot up the ratings on the UK site, but the report doesn't show sales to support that, so I have my fingers crossed that I am going to log on tomorrow to see a nice surprise in my sales report (I can but hope!!)

Things have picked up here the last hour or two. Have 5 sales and a borrow for today so far, 7.15 on the east coast here. Better then both days so far this week and hit last week's average. Hoping the rest of the night will continue on this trend!

I've just run some numbers and have made more revenue in the last 12 hours than I did the entire of November... (due to low sales in November, not huge sales in the last 12 hours)
Borrows are as of midnight GMT 25 Dec running at over twice as much as sales. I hope that a decent amount still results for borrows in December what with this increase...in the last 12 hours I've been getting a sales-to-borrow ratio of 1:4

41 US sales, still 2 UK sales which is about the same as yesterday. I am pretty sure the reports are behind since I'm way up in the author rankings.

I have made no sales at all. My books must be so deeply buried in the rankings that nobody can find them.
That's pretty much the Christmas I'm having, in general.

Well, my final #s for the day- 5 sales, 1 return (bah humbug!), 3 borrows. So I count that as 7 sales, which is only slightly above an average day for me with more borrows than usual. Not the big ka-bang I was hoping for, but I'll take it gladly and we'll see what tomorrow brings! Hope everyone's #s are climbing tonight into tomorrow and beyond- Happy Holidays!
On a side note, I've spent a few nano-seconds almost hyperventilating today when I see people posting double digit sales over a few hours. Then I look and see they have more than just a handful of titles out and realize there's no way I should feel badly I don't have those kinds of sales yet-with one new book out, I'm not in that league! It does give me something to aspire to-so those who have shared their sales today who have sold more than me (and that's a lot you!) thank you for the inspiration. Those who sold less- tomorrow is another day! Every sale counts, be greatful for each and everyone, take nothing for granted!

Exactly. I have 21 titles after three years. Everyone here started where you are now.

End of the day total is 20 sales. Eight of which were for the $3.99 book. Two more sales would have made it an even ten. Oh well, still about four times better than my daily average.
