FINE I’M EXAGGERATING!!
After my my last post where I announced that Happy Femdom Stories Volume 1 is available for free, I asked people all over social media to join in to see if we could get a book about real-life F/m relationships to the #1 spot on Amazon.
We didn’t quite make it, but my goodness we had a good run at it.
The peak results looked like this:
US:
#604, and #1 and #3 in two categories.
Edited to add: See correction below :)
Canada:
#216, and #1 in both categories.
UK:
#705, and #1 in two categories.
For context, there are over 90,000 free books on Amazon.com, so #604 puts us in the top 1% and that’s HUGE. I’m 100% delighted with this result :)).
It was a spontaneous idea: If I had done it in a more organised way, specifically asked some heavy hitters to get on board, I think we might have ended up getting a lot closer. I might try again in few months.
THANK YOU to everyone who downloaded the book and spread the word: I really appreciate it.
If you missed the flurry, Happy Femdom Stories is a book full of stories about joyful real-life F/m relationships as told by those living in them, and it’s an absolute delight: Get it here.

ADDITION:
I am being called out in the best possible way on this post (thank you Morion!) :)).
AUSTRALIA! #564, and #1 in both categories (I assume it went higher than #564 at the peak, but I wasn’t monitoring the Australian site because my book activity is always low there, so I missed it. Boo!).

Great for context, to show HOW CLOSE we got *shakes fist* :).

*ahem* You forgot the most important one. Amazon Australia, #798 for Free Kindle Books. #1 in Sex, #2 in Love & Romance.
I did! Largely because I see such little activity on Amazon Australia.
But now that I’ve looked: #798?
No no no!!
It’s #564 AS WE SPEAK and #1 in both of those categories!!
I have not been tracking it, but if it’s #564 now, I assume it went higher at some point, but Amazon doesn’t keep that history :(.
I will add it in now! *shameface*

Congratulations!
I got my copy right after you made the announcement. Thank-You very much.
YAY go me. . . Obviously you other people helped a bit, but it was mostly ME!

Congrats! This Canadian already had it but I’m glad for your success.
In slightly related news I’ve actually gained the confidence to make an OKCupid profile. It’s only been a few hours and I have a few months of school left; but even a year ago that would have been impossible to me. I was *going* to answer all the questions but after a solid 400 I looked around and there’s apparently almost 3000! Well at least I got a good start! ;) Your other ebook will help as well once I get more time to build up the profile.
