600 ‘sales’ milestone

Sharon Manssen
My 3 books so far

Since releasing my first book in June 2017, I reckon I have just passed having 600 books ‘out there’. That includes both e-book and paperback formats across all 3 books. The reason I put ‘sales’ in quotes is because the numbers include books I’ve gifted or given away. Now, I realise that 600 is not a huge amount, especially if you average it over the nearly 5 years since I first published. But the last 12 months have been pretty useless, so they don’t count šŸ™‚

It certainly has been more slow and steady than I would’ve liked, but hey, it’s all been a massive learning curve. And while I’m still learning it and enjoying the journey … well, I’ll keep going! Thanks for being part of my journey by reading this.

A fantasy fan since being read 'The Hobbit' by her father at the fireside at the age of six, she has been an avid bookworm her entire life. When the idea for her current trilogy popped into her head, there was never any doubt that it would be in the fantasy genre. Unfortunately, real life gets in the way, and writing has to fit around her full-time job at a global engineering consultancy and family life (husband and two young adult children). It took ten years to pen her first book, Medar, which was a finalist for the Tom Fitzgibbon Award in 2015 and was published in 2017. Her second book, Tyrelia was nominated in the Young Adult Fiction category in the 2019 Sir Julius Vogel Awards. Her third book, Golden City, is due out in 2021.
