Hello backers and supporters!
Fae Child will have been out in the world for a month on January 15th, and I couldn’t be more pleased. You should have received your copies (ebook or paperback) of the book by now, and if you are still waiting for a paperback or not sure if you ordered a paperback just email me and I can check your order for you.
Thank you for making this possible! In a month I have sold nearly the same amount it took me six months to crowdfund. Amazing!
Amazon is running a sale on the paperback for $7.59 right now, which is a fantastic deal and I encourage you to jump on it if you want a copy to hold in your hands (or to give to a friend!). Look at that cover art -- how could you not? I do not know how long this sale will last, as Amazon sets its own prices.
Once you’ve read Fae Child (and I hope you’re reading it now!), please please please log in to Amazon and leave a review. It could just be "I liked it a lot!"-- there’s no need to think you have to have paragraphs or fancy reasoning to justify your star ratings. The book is sitting at 9 reviews right now, and I’d love it if we could bump that way up. (In contrast, we have 70 ratings and 60 reviews on Goodreads, which is very exciting.)
The SEQUEL is underway, and I am nearing completion on the first draft. I would love for Inkshares to publish THE FURIOUS HOST, and I have entered it in their current competition. It is open for preorders but you don’t have to preorder to support it in the competition. Just click this link: [The Furious Host] , sign into your Inkshares account, and FOLLOW the book, and (after you’ve read Fae Child) READ the sample chapters!
Pre-ordering would also be wonderful, if you want to reserve your copy of The Furious Host (The Fae Child Trilogy Book Two) in advance. Thank you for your support.
Additionally, I have written a short story that takes place before the events of Fae Child, detailing how Nadiene and Charles met for the first time. THICK AS THIEVES is published in the Passageways anthology, for sale now! If you pick it up, let me know how you like it/leave a review.
Thank you so much for all your support,
Jane-Holly Meissner
Dear Henderson House Supporters
Hi Readers!
Chapter 4 is now available on Inkshares. See what happens when Samantha learns to travel between earth and Elysium and her two worlds collide!
I also wanted to remind everyone that when we reach 157 preorders, I will be doing a $50 Amazon gift card giveaway. You’ll receive an entry into the giveaway when you pre-order and an additional entry for each person you refer if they also pre-order (just drop me a note with the name of the person you refer.) I’ll be doing Giveaways for every 50 pre-orders, so spread the word!
For more book updates and fun facts about the characters and roman mythology, follow me on instagram at @nicole_sampson_writer.
Best,
Nicole
Inkshares Update: January 7th, 2021
It’s been eight months since my last update and I keep clicking my heels together and still flying monkeys rain down upon us spewing their virulent exhortations. Anyway, without rehashing the obvious that we’re all living, I did want to bring to your attention that Dean Fearce hasn’t given up. MINE is at this point in time still a viable work in progress and I thank you one and all for your patience and support. If something truly remarkable changes in the manuscript’s status, you will be the first to know. But do know this: I’ve produced another one-hundred thousand words in a single document and they are far better with more amazing characteristics than any previous thousands upon thousands of words I’ve strung together, creating multitudinous documents before they went to their final resting place at the bottom of a litter box. Requiesce in pace. But, that’s just my opinion so we shall wait upon the prophecy as foretold by the man behind the curtain to reveal the true nature of such a thing. You see, writing is easy. Creating delightful characters is harder. Stringing chapters together with continuity and a plot line that serves those characters with an arc that truly delivers them somewhere over the rainbow is harder still. I won’t even bring up those wicked witch revisions. And yes I do go on. It amuses me. I do so hope it amuses you but I still have my day job in any event. Hope you are safe and healthy and I love you all. Now go follow those writers in the 2020 All-Genre Manuscript Contest. Oh-Ee-Yah! Ee-Oh-Ah!
