Fantastic news. You've broken through the first rung of the rule of ten. Of every 100 people who want to write a novel ten finish it of those who finish it ten percent publish it. Of those who are published ten percent make some money of those ten percent make a living of those who make a living 10 percent make a good living etc in other words of a nation of 350 million people less than 1 percent make a living as a professional novelist. Congratulations!
Love this for you, Roy! If there's anything I've learned in the past 8 months, it's that the traditional publishing process is very broken, so you have to make your own magic. Onward!
At long last! I know this isn't how your dream went, but I'm excited for you.

Thanks Megan! And I think 'make your own magic' is just the right approach.
