30+ novels! Very impressive. How long did it take him to get to 1 million copies sold, and was there anything he did along the way that had an outsized impact

  He's been writing for about 12 years, and he crossed the million threshold at least two years ago - so about a decade. I'm not sure about the answer to the second question, I'll ask him over a beer next time we get together. I would say that an important factor was investing in professional cover art, editing, etc. He also more or less timed the rise of Kindle books, quite by accident, and I think that also helped his career. But there's no substitute for caring about his work and putting in the time, which he definitely does.
