I would love for there to be more.

I cannot afford more.

It will take time to build up sales as this is a different market, so I’m trying not to feel too demoralized here. But I ask, again, that if you’re an audio reader and you want there to be more, please pick up copies**. Most of these sites have credit options as well, and there are discounts to buy direct from me. Libraries should be able to order as well.

You can also click “notify” on the Kickstarter pre-launch page for Emperor’s Tomb. In January I will check those numbers as well as the sales numbers of the first two books to see if I think a KS would be viable. If not, I’ll wait and check again in June and crunch more numbers. I would be thrilled to have it work out–Kristi Burns is very talented and super nice, and the company produces wonderful work. But I will not launch it unless I’m fairly certain it’ll fund; Kickstarters represent so much stress and work, and I can’t afford to waste my time when I could be writing (or my limited morale) on something that fails.

At times there was a bit of a learning curve but I’m still glad I had this opportunity and to see where this new format and market goes from here.

Speaking of learning curves, I have a big October sale coming to Payhip as of tomorrow–everything spooky will have some kind of discount, including bundles, and I’ve learned so many new ins and outs of the store. I really want to do more print direct (which will be expensive so I’ll wait and see if anyone decides to buy Dweller in paperback direct), and in the new year I’ll have sticker packages (hopefully Canada Post will let me mail things by then). I’m in a couple of horror promos this month at Kobo as well, including my first audio one. I’m really hopeful it goes well.

Overall, it’s been A Month–a lot of ups and downs, a lot of disheartening dealings with people with regards to publishing, but I’m just trying to trudge ahead and focus on writing. Waverly 6 is presently up for preorder as my brain needed some kind of dopamine hit I guess for another preorder (and the book is written, it just needs heavy revising).

I have a rebrand of the Oblivion covers to do but I need some time to go through the files and tweak/clean up and ugh I’ve got too much else to worry about right now.

May this fall be quiet and productive.

* Mostly. Understand I rarely say this but INaudio has been a nightmare for distribution. I understand there’s a split from Findaway and stuff is going on, but the website has been janky, that caused issues when selecting distributors, Watcher and Odin’s Spear have been tied up at Google Play, and no one at INaudio will respond to my email (it’s been a MONTH). I had to send actual takedown notices but because the ISBNs were claimed but books not actually listed, Google says they can’t take them down.

There were also issues with Libro.fm today but they’ve restored the links (it affected everyone, due to an increase of fraudulent books coming from INaudio).

** Everand listens don’t count. I don’t have access to those stats, so it doesn’t give me a way to measure whether there’s further interest or not. The books will be removed as of tomorrow so at least that’s no longer a concern, but if you come here as an Everand listener, that is why I don’t count listens–I simply have no idea what the numbers are.

That said, thank you thank you thank you to everyone who gave the books a listen there, and I do hope you’ll explore what I have available for sale and support my other work.
