Film Courage: What does it mean to be an international bestseller?
Andrew Warren, Author: I don’t think there’s any specific qualification, but for me I didn’t want to use a term like that unless I could back it up. I hit the best seller lists on Amazon for my category which there’s various categories on Amazon. I tend to show up in categories like spy thriller, assassin thrillers, political thrillers, those kinds of categories. I hit number one, Amazon will award you a bestseller tag if you hit number one and stay there for a certain amount of time. I don’t know if anyone knows how long it is, maybe there’s a set amount of time. I have a feeling it’s probably dependent on the market and how many books Amazon is selling at the time but just because you hit number one doesn’t mean you get that tag. You have to hit number one and stay there for a certain amount of time. When my books hit number one and got the tag in multiple countries, that was when I was like Well, I guess I’m an international best-selling author.
Film Courage: That was for Red Phoenix?
Andrew: No that was for, let’s see Tokyo Black hit the best sellers list in Canada and A Cold Kill I believe hit the bestseller list in America. Another book called Depth Charge, which is one I co-wrote, that also hit the best seller list in America and the boxed set of the first three books, when I say hit the bestseller list I mean it earned the Amazon bestseller tag. Canada, America, Australia, those are the three territories where I got it.
Film Courage: What amount of time did this take to happen?
Andrew: It was over the course of years. It wasn’t all at once because those books were released at different times…(Watch the video interview on Youtube here).
