The horizontal line represents a thousand units. I had 1400 downloads on Tuesday and nearly two hundred on Wednesday.
I also received 140 downloads across all D2D retailers on Tuesday.
Sell-through has been a little disappointing, but not surprising; lots of people download free books but don't get around to reading them soon, if at all. A few sales of books 2 and 3 are trickling in, though. Apple and Amazon are neck-and-neck as far as income is concerned. I've had a slightly higher number of sales via Apple, but D2D takes its cut, so the money is basically even. I'm still "in the red" as far as this trilogy goes, but I'm making progress. If momentum holds up, I'll be in the black in a matter of weeks.
(FYI: Expenditures = $120 for covers, $105 for copyright registrations, and $94 for promotions.)
So that's where I'm at after two weeks. For my first real "planned" launch, I think I've done pretty well, considering. I plan to publish Hostile Planet this month. I may publish a short, too; we'll see.
