Book News

In late February/early March, one of my group members informed me of the doll journals she has created which are sold on Amazon. During our chat, I also discovered that she is a romance novelist. Shea Swain has written several romance novels that are also available on Amazon (through Kindle Direct Publishing) and other sites. Before I share the links to Shea's publications, I want to share some exciting news. 

During my chat with Shea, I asked several questions about Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) for the possibility of having my third book, The Doll Blogs When Dolls Speak I Listen, reprinted as a paperback. Shea kindly walked me through the process and within a week, I revised my book, updated the back cover, and submitted it to KDP where it is now available to order! 

The Doll Blogs When Dolls Speak I Listen was offered as the first electronic book that features dolls that blog and shortly afterward as an ultra-limited paperback which sold out (as most printed books about Black dolls do) immediately! It has remained as an electronic book on Google Play and in the Kindle store. The ebook version has sold well, but it is the general consensus of most book lovers that they prefer to hold books in their hands. For those readers, The Doll Blogs can now be held (again or for the first time as a paperback or hardcover book as the stories told by each doll about their timeless experiences with their human, me, over a two-year period are enjoyed.

I will have a few hardcover copies to autograph and sell directly. If you would like to purchase an autographed copy directly from me, please send me an email to place your order with your name and mailing address so actual postage can be calculated. 

IMPORTANT: When purchasing the softcover or hardcover books directly from Amazon, check the option, "This order contains a gift." This might ensure that the book is shipped in a box to avoid any cover creases that might occur if the book is shipped in a padded envelope.
