Just a quick update today for the sake of my own amusement. In spite of knowing that it was most likely in a fairly niche category, and that these lists are updated so often that it doesn’t necessarily mean much in terms of actual numbers, I had to chuckle at the fact I will forever be able to say I was technically next to Shakespeare and Poe in a poetry bestsellers list. I’ll take it.
Well this was a nice surprise…
You can still get a copy of Seeking Solace on Kindle for FREE in celebration of National Poetry Day. Click here to find it on Amazon UK, or click here to find it on Amazon US. Huge thanks to anyone who has already done so, as well as to anyone who does so now or in the future.
Happy reading, and happy National Poetry Day!
Dude! That is awesome. I just downloaded the book and look forward to giving it a read. I need to see these fine works which compare to Shakespeare and Poe.
No pressure, huh? 😉
Thanks so much for downloading a copy. I really hope you enjoy it.
How exciting for you! Congratulations!
Thank you, Gina. It’s a good story to dine out on when I’m old 😉
Yes!
Most excellent, Callum!! I clearly remember Wake-Robin Ridge popping up between Stephen King and Dean Koontz once, and it stayed there several weeks. Never since, though. BUT. You print that out and you FRAME it!!! It’s a terrific feeling, regardless, and it will carry you through the slower times. And remember, too, you EARNED it! Way to go!
Thanks, Marcia! I won’t go popping champagne bottles and booking private jets just yet, but it is a pretty nice feeling all the same 😉
It is, indeed. And Shakespeare and Poe are in a class by themselves! Give me Poe over King, any day, though I do admit, I love Koontz. 🙂 But to be there beside the masters? You ROCK, Callum!
They really are. I must read more Poe actually, perhaps this was the universe’s way of reminding me! 😉
I discovered Poe at 12, lo those many years ago, and I devoured every word he ever wrote. I still love him! Hope you take some time to check him out. Would enjoy hearing what you think. (And read The Raven out loud. It begs to be intoned!!) 🙂
Very cool!
Thank you! It was quite the surprise.
Woohoo, proud of you, Callum! I love your poetry and would get the book if I didn’t have it already. 😉
Thank you, Hanna. That’s really kind of you, and lovely to hear! I hope you’ve been well 🙂
That’s awesome!!! Congrats!!!
Thank you very much 😊
Wow, right up there beside Shakespeare! Well done 🙂 I just got a copy of your book and look forward to reading it
Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy it 🙂
Yay! *bows* We could have told you how awesome you are 😉
Well now you’re just going to make me blush 😉
