Samhain In Print Top Ten Bestsellers August 12th 2007
August 12, 2007
The following list is a look at ePublishing from the “in print” perspective of the Amazon.com sales ranks of books from Samhain. I thought people might be interested in seeing how things stack up this way.
People constantly get on my case about promoting Samhain (Even though if you note Loose-Id has more m/m in the top ten but then take a look at what they could put into print and why are they not going with their strengths?) but if this was a hand of cards this is the one I would pick. Not heavy on any one writer and with a solid lineup with several showing up on other top tens. Samhain’s potential shines through. I hope Lauren Dane brings the Cascadia Wolves over, that would be interesting, and well I have to admit Annmarie McKenna has some solid numbers showing. Good job Samhain.

I have indeed brought my CW books over. Angie has Wolf Unbound now, which releases January 1 and Standoff, the last book comes out April 1.
Excellent Lauren! I think they will do well. I can not see how you would need to do much revision wise with them but it will be fun whatever you decide to do. That series is still one of my favorites and I look forward to the additions.
The first two will stay with EC (or three rather) and the last two will be at Samhain. I haven’t had to change anything and the move was actually precipitated by some timeline issues and I wanted to keep moving with the series and get firm release dates, which I was able to do with Samhain. I still have titles releasing from EC in the future so I’ll keep writing for both as long as my schedule will allow.
And thanks! It’s a favorite of mine as well and definitely fun to write.
