Congats. Welcome to the ranks of the self-published. If you look at it as a life-time journey as an author, writing more books, learning from every success but also from every failure, it will be worth it. Mostly, write what you love and have a passion for.

Congrats! Might last longer than 5 min, though. Just depends on the size of the categories. #5 in any category is awesome, though!I have 2 free short stories that have been in the top 100 of their categories pretty much since they came out...Just looked at one of them today:
#42 in Kindle Store > Kindle Short Reads > 30 minutes (12-21 pages) > Teen & Young Adult
#89 in Kindle Store > Kindle Short Reads > 30 minutes (12-21 pages) > Science Fiction & Fantasy
#216 in Kindle Store > Kindle Short Reads > 30 minutes (12-21 pages) > Literature & Fiction
...which just goes to show how small those categories are! (Only 28 free copies downloaded in the last 30 days!)

Awesome! But just so you know, the stats outside the top 100 just showed up yesterday, so it's not that you just broke into that category, you may have already been there, so even more reason to pat yourself on the back!

Well done! Enjoy it!
And, no -- I'm not going to stop either. ; )
