Greetings,
Everyone should have received their hardcover books by now and eBooks will be ready soon!
If you ordered a hardcover and it hasn't been delievered yet, send an email to hello@inkshares.com and tell them about it.
If that doesn't get the issue resolved, email me at rsaunders@anexpub.com and I'll make sure you get your book, even if I have to mail it to you myself.
Inkshares has announced that they are celebrating their one-year-anniversary. After thousands of projects were submitted, just 17 of those succeeded in winning a full-scale publishing contract this year. Due to YOUR incredible support,
Journey is one of those lucky 17!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Others have since won a deal, but those will be published next year. I'm very happy to have the title that closed out the year - Journey is "officially published" on December 1 and Inkshares next book won't come out until January.
To celebrate, Inkshares is offering a BOGO Free deal on those 17 books until December 11. No matter how successful Inkshares becomes and even if they publish 10,000 authors, Journey will always be among that small select group published in the inaugural year. And who do I have to thank for that? It's YOU!
Inkshares decided that it was so difficult for most entries to break through that they have amended their program and added a
"Light Publishing" option (click on the word "
Light") where the bar wasn't set so high. Those winners wouldn't get the full treatment, editing and marketing support or perks that came with the deal I won, but at least they can get published.
One of my fellow 17, just got some really BIG news! Amazon has over 8 million print titles in their warehouses or P.O.D. registry. (even more eBook only titles)
They recently opened their first real bookstore in Seattle. From their inventory of 8 million print books, they carefully selected 6,000 books to place in their brick & mortar store. Inkshares own Kris Calvin, author of
One Murder More was chosen for that honor. That's good for Kris and good for the whole Inkshares community - because it shows that Amazon views Inkshares in high enough regard to consider their titles for merited status.
Anyway, I hope you are all well. Happy Thanksgiving!
