Whoa ... way to go. Sold my first download of Survival Instinct on Amazon. de. I was beginning to think I would never make a sale there, despite posting in German and English.

For some strange reason It doesn't show a rank. Anyone else had that experience?

Congrats on that sale. Where on KDP does it show German sales? I can't find it.

You should be able to see it on your Kindle account reports page next to Amazon,co.uk

Yeah, we made #5 in English speaking Police Procedurals, above Konrath and Crouch...

That's excellent, did your first sale show a rank? Mine isn't showing anything.

Decon, you've inspired me. Just went to the .DE site and filled in my profile info, then posted in one discussion. My German is minimal, so I used Google translate. Probably a hilariously mangled version of what I tried to say, if their German to English translation is anything to go by.
Sherlock Holmes stuff would be very hard to translate, I think, but many there do speak and read English.

Check this out, Survival Instinct is 1 one in its category and 1033 overall. 82 in crime thrillers. That should inspire you even more

Yes! Finally made my first sale in Germany.

But I keep imagining some German woman saying "I thought this was in German!"

(although I guess she would actually be saying that IN German....)

Yeah I wondered about that.
