Excellent news, folks! It is my extreme pleasure to announce that the trade paperback version of Ministers of Grace: Cherubim & Seraphim is now available!
You can get your very own printed-on-demand copy at Amazon.com and CreateSpace. The list price is US $11.99, Amazon’s selling it for $10.54, and during the month of July, if you enter in the discount code 9WS6N4TX at the CreateSpace site, you’ll get $2 off and pay a fresh $9.99. After you’ve read it, you can help me get the word out by telling all your friends about it through social media like Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr or Google+, or even the good ol’ “I read this great book, it was…” conversation over lunch. You can also spread the word by heading over to the book’s page at Amazon, Goodreads or Shelfari and leaving me an honest review of the book. I made it through a graduate creative writing program; I can take a bad review. This is the beach read you’ve been pining for. Order your copy now!
I am also elated to announce that there were two winners of the June Contest Giveaway – Eloïse Le Magnen and Lesley Wickham. Eloïse picked June 27th, and Lesley chose July 1st. As the book was technically available on the evening of June 27th but not announced until July 1st, I’ve decided that both of them get a signed copy. Thank you to everyone who participated. Early next week I’ll announce the details of the July Contest Giveaway, in which you can enter to win a free signed copy. If you’d like a head start on the details, check out this post I wrote last week on Keys.
Now, on to some not-so-excellent-but-still-pretty-cool news. Many folks want an electronic version, of course. Due to circumstances beyond my control – insert (>_<) face here – the electronic conversion is going to take three weeks to complete. (>_<), right? That said, the Kindle version will be available on July 23rd, 2013, with further electronic formats to open up in August 2013. Keep your eyes peeled for the official announcements on those.
On a personal note, the publication of this first book in the Ministers of Grace trilogy is a ginormous moment in a journey that I began three-and-a-half years ago. I’ve already written the other two books, and now they’re barking at me to redraft them so that they can join their sister in print. Here’s to ’14 and ’15? I want everyone I’ve ever met to know that I couldn’t have done this without the limitless love and support of my family and friends. I’m honored that you all believed in me enough to share this with you. Thank you, all of you!
