PRE-ORDERS / WORLD OF DARKNESS / NEW AUDIO & MORE

It has been too long since our last newsletter. So much has happened, and the temptation to put all that in here is strong, but I’m going to hold myself back and try to hit the most important things.

I’m going to start with a request. Please spread the word about this newsletter. The only way we are going to grow is if we get news of our titles into as many hands and inboxes as possible. We appreciate your support.

A second note. We have a link on our website for bookstores and libraries. I’m including it here along with a QR code that links directly to that page. FIND IT HERE - you can print this code and carry it with you to bookstores and libraries to share it.

It leads to our wholesale terms – 45% off cover price plus shipping – and to catalogs of our available titles. We rely mostly on retail sales but would love to reach more stores and libraries. The thing is, we also need to keep our products affordable. They are POD books, and they are published through Amazon KDP, which drops cover prices at least 20%. We have no ability to warehouse or sell returned copies, but we welcome smaller orders. We are happy to support independent bookstores who will also support us.

Last fall we had our first open call for novels. We have a good number of those we accepted either on sale, up for pre-order, or in the process of getting there. Pre-orders are a huge help for an author, and much appreciated. Without further ado, let’s check out what’s new.

Important additions:

We have Released THE BLACK and THE UGLIMEN in eBook and trade paperback, and THE BLACK is available also (for the first time) in unabridged audio.
