Found Mysteries Giveaway!

Starting today, August 1st, I’ll be hosting a special giveaway to celebrate the release of Found Mysteries: The Rebirth of Violet Franklin and Other Tales! The grand prize will be a $25 Amazon Gift Card and this beautiful print designed by Emily Congdon (who designed the stellar cover of this book).

To enter, retweet and share the special post on my social media for two entries (one share and one retweet, multiples don’t count). On September 1st, I’ll do a drawing and contact the winner! This contest, sadly, has to be limited to within the US because…laws. So, good luck to everyone who’s entering and thank you so much for your support so far! I’m looking forward to everything that’s going to come!

Found Mysteries: In Your Hands!

You read that correctly!

If you follow me on any social media (which you should), I recently announced that my physical book came to my hands for approval! There’s a lot of emotions that came with that (namely shock), but it feels so good to have something physical in my hands! I had to make a few minor revisions that I couldn’t identify until I had a physical copy in my hands, but those issues have been resolved and I can comfortably say that the book is finally ready for you, dear readers!

You can get it online through the expected resources, but I highly recommend asking your local independent bookstore if they can order a copy for you! It’s available through IngramSpark and, if it’s needed, the ISBN is “978-1-7351463-0-0” (but it’s also the only book under my name).

I am so excited for everyone who was waiting for a physical copy to finally get their version, but I wanted to make sure that you were all getting the best possible product I could promise. If you bought a digital copy, don’t worry, none of the stories have changed.

Keep an eye out at the end of the month, as I’m going to be having a contest for the month of August for an opportunity to win a special prize!

Reflections on Release

If you’re here, you’re probably aware that my first book was published this week! Those are still available in the digital format and I’m hoping to have details on the release of physical copies. Covid has really slowed down things at the distributor, but believe me when I say, I can’t wait for it to be available for everyone. I know a few people are waiting to buy physical copies and I promise I’m working on getting those available as soon as I make sure there aren’t any issues with the printing process.

This experience of self-publishing has been a learning experience above all else. There are things that I might do differently looking back, but I can’t help feeling like Covid was a contributing factor to what happened this year. There are things I would have done differently, but all in all, I’m pretty pleased with how things have been going in the first week! I got a lot more planned, including a re-release event/giveaway when the option for ordering physical copies will be available.

It’s the first time I’ve ever published anything (and charged money for it), so to anyone who’s bought or read a copy of the book so far, I can’t thank you enough. It’s been surreal to see my book available and seeing responses and reviews from people who’ve read it. For all that’s happened this year, this has definitely been a high point and I’m eager to see where this goes. Even if that just means a few people get to read my stories? I feel like this was worth all the work.

Stay healthy out there and be kind to one another!

Found Mysteries is Live!

Good Morning to All! Today “Found Mysteries: The Rebirth of Violet Franklin and Other Tales” is now available!

As of right now, you can only purchase it as an e-book. I was hoping to enable the distribution of physical copies, but I still haven’t seen a copy myself and I wouldn’t feel comfortable enabling that without seeing it. I want to make sure everyone is getting the product I’m intending to sell, so I will enable that as soon as it’s possible and let you all know when that happens. For right now, it is available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Apple Books, and anywhere fine eBooks are sold!

If you’re waiting for a physical copy to purchase, please bear with me while I’m working on that. Once it’s available, I encourage you to contact your local bookstore and see if they can acquire it for you (support those small businesses, everyone)!
UPDATE: Now, there are physical copies available through Amazon and Barnes and Noble! Use the links above and there are physical options there, too!

Found Mysteries

Hello Everyone!

I’m making an announcement here that Found Mysteries: The Rebirth of Violet Franklin and Other Tales will be available for purchase in 1 Week!

I still can’t get enough of this amazing cover design by Emily Congdon!

I’m still working out a few last-minute details (Covid-19 really gummed up the process and that’s completely understandable), but I’m thinking everything should be on schedule! Keep an eye out for more information as we approach the release and the time after when we’ll be having a giveaway!

Found Mysteries Update

Hello everyone! I hope everyone is doing well in these strange times. I wanted to take a minute to inform everyone about the upcoming release of my novella set, Found Mysteries. The official release date is June 30th, so mark your calendars and keep an eye out for updates! I’m very excited to share this with all of you and hope you enjoy it!

Additionally, there will be a special contest for a beautiful 12in x 16in Print based on the cover with a quote from the book. A special thanks to Emily Congdon for helping design this cover and the subsequent poster. The rules for the contest will be explained more thoroughly later on, as well as how/where you can get your hands on your own copy of the book!

Stay safe, Stay Well!
