A secret surprise. I’ve pressed “Submit for Publishing” twice today. Once with Kindle Direct Publishing (e-book) and once with CreateSpace (paperback).
Both for the prequel to the series “A Life Upside Down”. It is a short story and its title is “Seven Broken Pieces”.
You can find its description here or directly on Amazon.com.
The first book in the series “A Spy’s Daughter” was published shortly before Christmas.
How it feels. I’ve published “The Truth About Family” during the night and “A Spy’s Daughter” during the day. It is three o’clock in the morning as I write this, which is less than half an hour after pressing the button “Publish” or the second time today for the “Seven Broken Pieces”.
So I’ve published again during the night.
It does feel special and somehow very intimate. Just me and my book. I’d say this feels like celebrating a New Year’s Eve in an empty house or flat, alone with one’s sweetheart.
The two of us here, the rest of the world out there.
Or sleeping. Like the three sweetest people in my home right now. I’m smiling as I think about telling my family that I sent my third book for publication.
How we are going to celebrate. The digital launches are quiet, without clinking of glasses with Champaign, sharing chocolate and cake, and readings in a bookstore. But they are still very special. Particularly for the authors. So there is a wish to celebrate, to offer more surprises.
This is what I have planned already for quite some time and glad that I can finally tell you about it.
The e-book price for the “Seven Broken Pieces” will be (and remain most of the time) 0.99 $ at Amazon.com.
This was of course not the part of the celebration I meant.
Here it is: I have arranged that from February 10 to February 17 the price for “The Truth About Family” and “A Spy’s Daughter” will be set down to 0.99 $ each.
It means that in this time-frame you will be able to buy (currently) all of my three e-books (”The Truth About Family”, “A Spy’s Daughter”, and “Seven Broken Pieces”) for 2.97 $, which is less than the regular e-book price for “The Truth About Family” or “A Spy’s Daughter”, which is currently 2.99 $ each.
Right before this promotion starts, I will notify you again on this, so that you can purchase one or another of my e-books at a discounted price, if you didn’t purchase it (or them) yet, but would like to.
What I am up to now. The next project, which will see the light soon, is also a short story, which I will offer as a free e-book on my site. It is called “Between Grace and Abyss”. And of course there are few other projects in writing. But this news will come in another letter.
In the meanwhile, here is the e-book cover for my new short story
P.S. Great thanks to my brilliant cover designer, Alice Jago, for another wonderful creation for my books.
