Book Charts and Breaches

Ah, my Minions...

As some of you are aware, KOTW was released early in some parts of the UK. Mistakes were made, I am told, and by the time news got out, it was already too late to do anything. Our official release date had been breached.

I was told all about it. I shrugged. Hey. It happens.

While this tends to mean very little for the overall sales of the book- the same amount of people are going to buy it, after all- it CAN mean that a new book doesn't get to rise as high in the book charts as it otherwise would have, and so doesn't get discussed in the media, and so more people aren't made aware of it...

For example, if a thousand people intend to buy a book the first week it's out, then a thousand sales will move it to a certain spot in the chart. But if five hundred of those people manage to buy the book a week EARLIER, then those sales are spread out over two weeks, and so it doesn't reach as high.

A breached release date can mean the difference between a best-selling book and a NUMBER ONE best-selling book, which is what all publishers are looking for.

Me personally? I'm not OVERLY bothered. Death Bringer was a number one bestseller last year in the UK and Ireland, and that's enough for me. Like I said, I wasn't too fussed at the idea that a few thousand books has been sold before the release date. So what if I didn't reach number one twice in a row? Did I really care? Nope, I didn't.

Which doesn't mean I wasn't utterly delighted by the news today that DESPITE a breached release date, KOTW is now the number one book for young adults in the UK- so thank you, Minions! (I haven't been told how we're doing in Ireland yet, so I'll hold off my extra-wide grin for THAT moment...)

The reader reaction to KOTW has been wonderful. I know a lot of you were stunned by certain events- of which you are free to talk about in the Spoiler Zone post below- and I know some of you would have quite liked to throttle me upon closing the book, so I want to thank you for investing so much of your faith and emotion in these characters. All I can say is: prepare yourself. You have, I assure you, seen NOTHING yet.

And speaking of the final installments, here's a link to a short thingy I wrote for the Tesco website...

DAMNZES. I should, like, go to sleep now . . . School . . . Bladiblahblah . . .

*hugs everyone* SEE YOU ALL SOON, I HOPE!!! FOURS!!!

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

You know, I change my mind, I'll do my homework AND chat at the same time.


Did you know that no one at my school knows who I am? It's funny. I was sitting in Science and the teacher walked by and was explaining what to do since it was sixth period, and I said, "I had sixth period science last year too." And everyone at my table gave me confused looks, and the teacher asked who my teacher was last year and I told her, and then once she left everyone at my table said, "You went here last year?"

Am I really that forgetable? XD

Unknown said...

Welllllllllz. If you get the supply list i suggested...

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Unknown said...

YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Panda Bear said...

Hey Derek do you read the comments? Just wondering...
Anyway I only read the Skulduggery Pleasant series during the summer but I loved them soooo much, I read them all twice in a week! I haven't been following you since you started writing the series but I'm still a MASSIVE fan:D
I got an pre-signed copy of KOTW in Easons in Newbridge but I wasn't able to go to the signing, I was unbelievably gutted:( But ah well what could I do:)
Since I've read your books I've become really inspired to write more and I've finished a lot of stories and even some books. I love writing now and that's because of the books you write:) I see the world in a different way since I've read your books and I'm sure everyone else who has read Skulduggery Pleasant would agree with me.
So anyway I wanted to say Thank you soo much for being an amazing writer and for inspiring me and loads of other people all over the world too:)
Oh and please hurry up with the next book, I need to know what happens next!

Unknown said...

What? It's a joke. * shoots dino foot with attention change* Is there something wrong with that?

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Dear lord do not say that Dark!

Noelle said...

Derek- I don't know it you're reading or not...

But Emerald Melody is in the hospital.

She's been there three times in the past few weeks. Today her lung began to bleed again, and just a bit ago, her heart stopped completely.

Thankfully, her doctors hooked her back up to a ventilator, but we're all worried for her condition...

I just wanted to say that... Well, in case nothing goes right, that I think she'd realy appreciate it if you came in to see her..

YES, I know, it's a big question, and you probably won't do it. But she was a faithful Skulduggery fan, and you inspired her to write.

And if anything happens... I'd at least want her to be happy....

* starts crying* I agree with Adra. Being hopsitilize can devistate everyone around them. Not just the victums, but also there family and close freinds. It's a dark place in there lives so if you could, you could make her feel very happy.

Noelle said...

Yeah... And you never know, she could be in one of those conscious-but- can't move types of things...

Please, Derek. Please. She might not have a lot of time left.

I KNOW. It sounds bad... And I'm not pessimistic... It's realistic. And I want her comfortable....

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

*sighs* Derek if you read this....please. Go see her. I think..it'd mean a lot to her. I...dont wanna see anything happen to her

Seriously, crying right now... Please Derek. Please, just go see her. I can get the name of the hospital, even!

So do i

Cassidy Clarimonde (Self-Appointed Grand Mage of the Scottish Sanctuary) said...

Do you know how it happened ??

Noelle said...

yeah... WE know...


Emerald has a lung disease called PAPS and has been fighting it for a while.. Over the past few weeks, she's had troubles, and her condition has been worsening, I think...

Cassidy Clarimonde (Self-Appointed Grand Mage of the Scottish Sanctuary) said...

That's terrible !!!!! :'( Is there like a cure or anything ???

Noelle said...

No, but they're going to give her a transplant.

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Im distracting myself with KOTW its awesome

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Adra, I was just looking up the disease. It says that as long as the patient gets their lungs washed out or a transplant, it's rarely ever a fatal disease.


Please let Em be fine... Please let Em be fine...

Cassidy Clarimonde (Self-Appointed Grand Mage of the Scottish Sanctuary) said...

God, i hope she will be okay. I need to go to sleep now. If I'm not here in the next few days, i apologize. I am having surgery tomorrow !!! :( I hope Em gets better !!!! Send her my best !!!! Cheerio !!!!!!

Noelle said...

I know... She has something else, I think... No, you don't understand. He lungs are BLEEDING. and have been. Arteries broken, part of it is INFECTED and has to be removed...

And besides, what isn't fatal, nowadays... :/

Noelle said...

Cheers, mate...

And I know, Val...*hugs*

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

*sighs*

Noelle said...

Oh yeah, Chase is stalking us, and said to tell you, Val that PAPS is crippling, and Em was also suffering from a spontaneous pneumothorax... And so she has been in some difficulty.

Noelle said...

Zaf, quit sighing. You're making me sad.

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Chase, if you can, please tell Em we're all really, really, REALLY concerned, and we're really hoping she gets better, and that I'm going to be praying for her to get better.

Noelle said...

Val... She'll be okay, alright? Just hope, and pray. Even if you're athiest...

Hope then.

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

I'm no athiest, and I'll have my entire family praying for her.
