Uniquely Bittersweet…
I’m gearing up for what will likely be an unforgettable experience. One that will stay with me the rest of my life.This coming Monday I am leaving on a cross-Canada drive with my amazing daughter who is moving 3600 kilometers (2250 miles) away. The fact she has asked me to accompany her on this adventure is an honor I treasure immensely.
The anticipation for this trip has been high and the preparations furious, both on the part of my daughter and mine. She has a house to pack up and ship, while making sure she says goodbye to all family and friends before she leaves. She’s leaving a job where all loose ends have to be tied up and starting up another one on the other side of the country, the week after we set out.
As for me, I had a book to finish writing, which I’m happy to announce, I did. It will be in editing while we’re driving. There are sales to plan, a blog tour to prepare for, covers to design, and…. Well let’s just say it never ends.
I’m pretty sure by the time we roll out on Monday morning, we’ll both be tuckered. But it won’t stem the sense of adventure, the excitement of driving clear across this beautiful country we get to call home.
Packed in my daughter’s car, with enough ‘stuff’ to tide her over until the moving van gets there—anywhere from two weeks to a month—and with my horse-sized grand-dog breathing down our necks from the back seat, it’ll be interesting.
I called around to find pet-friendly hotels or motels on our route and was surprised to find out that once you leave the ‘big city’, rules around animals are far more relaxed. I spoke to a lady at a hotel in Kenora, Ontario, who assured me the dog wouldn’t be a problem. She pointed out that in the past few years they’ve had any and all kind of animals stay in their hotel; snakes, cats, dogs, birds and apparently, even a young polar bear, which certainly got my attention. All of this adds to my level of excitement. I just hope bedbugs aren’t on the list of welcomed creatures at that hotel…
Driving through Ontario will be beautiful and rough once we get a bit further north. Mostly forested land and we’ll have a very good chance of seeing wildlife along the way at this time of year. Manitoba is uncharted territory for me, so I’m not sure what to expect other than what I’ve been told; that it’s pretty boring. There isn’t much countryside I find boring to tell you the truth. The fact you can see further than the house across the street is a big perk for me. The countryside is supposed to change from forest to grass and farmland. Next will be Saskatchewan, which is purported to offer mostly farmland. Again I will reserve judgement until I can see it with my own eyes. Finally comes the cross over into Alberta, which is where our journey will end. It starts as flatlands but morphs into the majestic Rocky Mountains as you drive west. It is easily one of the most beautiful views on this earth…
Crossing the country, seeing the rugged beauty of the Ontario north transition into 'the Prairies' before reaching the glory of the mountains, has always been at the top of my wish list. Doing it with my first-born only makes that experience richer.
I know my girl will love it there.
But I won’t love leaving her there when I fly back home that following Sunday.
It will be hard to say goodbye to my oldest child, who has never lived further than at most half an hour away. Although we were never the kind of mother and daughter who lived in each other’s back pocket, we’ve always had the security of knowing the other was just a short drive away. And believe me, that has been welcome over the years.
So yes, I’ll feel a little lost when I get onto the plane back to Ontario—leaving my girl behind—but I will have an incredible experience to carry with me. And I will leave with the satisfaction that once again I’ve been given the privilege to send her safely on her way to a bright new future.

To $0.99 — Or Not To $0.99?
The 99 cent conundrum… 
I’ve just released my latest book, Cruel Water. At full price—all of $3.99. The price of a cup of coffee these days. I agonized over it. With books hitting the market everywhere at a mere 99 cents, would I even stand a chance?
Well, I decided to stick to my conviction that if I don’t value my own work, how could I expect the reader to value it. It’s a tough market out there if you don’t play the game, but I couldn’t bring myself to do it. And still I hold out hope that if I demonstrate consistency in the quality of writing as well as the price tag, this will eventually pay off.
Perhaps I’m delusional—it wouldn’t be the first time.
I’m not going to bore you with the number of hours I spend writing these 100,000 word books (although my calculated guess is between 150 and 200 hours per book). I’m also not going to mention the hours invested in promotion and networking (although it’s probably close to 10 hours a day). And forget about things like cover design, marketing, editing and proofreading. Those are all things you’ve heard before. It’s not new. It’s also something you as readers shouldn’t really be concerned about.
I’m concerned about it, though, because I’m discovering that unless we as authors start assessing our professional time and skill at its proper (and still very reasonable) value, we end up shooting ourselves in the foot.
A simple calculation. For a 99 cent e-book we receive 35% in royalties. That’s a scant $0.35 per book. For a $3.99 book our royalties are at 70%, which rounds to about $2.79 per copy sold. In simple terms that means that for every full priced book sold, we’d have to sell 8 of the $0.99 ones to get to $2.79.
Not clear enough? Okay, how is this; for every 10 full priced ones, we’d have to sell 80 bargain priced ones. Are you starting to feel the pinch?
I agree, with the price set at $0.99 those of you who enjoy a bargain (and I will happily admit I at times am one too) start one-clicking away. Before you know it, another “best-selling author” is born, but what does that really mean when the title is mostly based on skewed sales numbers? I don't mean to imply that the authors are not deserving of the title, not at all, but what I am saying is: How do we know?
You see, I’m afraid that in an attempt to add to our credibility, the pursuit of that proud title may become our ultimate downfall. We may well be killing our own market.
I believe you create your own demand. Instead of riding the ebbs and flows of the market, we collectively scramble to garnish more sales. But as I've shown above, more sales does not always mean more income. Not for an author.
If as authors, we all keep saying that we won’t sell anything unless we underprice, we are not looking far enough ahead. This much too low price tag becomes the norm on which the market—the readers—base their expectations.
In turn, as authors, we have no choice but to start cutting corners to keep making ends meet. The obvious place to start would be to stop paying other people to do what we think we can do ourselves. And in doing so, we risk bringing down the quality of our own work. How does that make sense?
There is a reason a mainstream published book has those higher price tags. It’s because the money invested in consistent quality and product marketing has to be recouped. And readers will pay it, because they’re able to count on that consistent quality of product.
As Indie community, we all want to be seen as equals, as valid competition to mainstream published authors, but if we don’t properly value our own work how in God’s name can we expect everyone else to?
There is such incredible talent among the Indie authors. Beautiful books have been written and tremendous success achieved by quite a few. But even those who were riding high perhaps a year or two ago, are scrambling to keep up with the changing market.
It’s difficult to see an easy way out of this corner we've painted ourselves in. I certainly don’t have the answers. The only thing I can do is stick to my guns as long as I can in putting a fair value on my product, showing the confidence I have in my work. I don’t know how long I’ll hold out.
And in the meantime I hope and pray that the readers, the bloggers and the industry at large, won’t be too blinded by the $0.99 bargains everywhere to miss out on some pretty fucking awesome books that are available at a very reasonable price.
The cost of a cup of coffee.
Wish me luck.

Finally Behind The Wheel....
So last night we celebrated my daughter’s thirtieth birthday. THIRTY.
Aside from the realization my child—the little precocious girl who always marched to her own drum—is a bona fide adult, it became clear to me that she already is so much better at ‘adulting’ than I ever was.
At thirty, with two young children, I had been mostly flying by the seat of my pants. Finding foothold in a new-to-us country, and frankly flapping my wings in an uncontrolled effort to find my niche. No real purpose, and honestly no real drive.
But then here is my daughter, who even as a young child had very clear ideas about what she wanted and how to go about getting it. With focus, with determination and with confidence. All traits, I was sure until recently, escaped me.
I did raise fantastic kids, and that is something I was obviously good at, but as for having real goals (other than winning it big in the lottery) I simply had none.
Everyone knows that all it takes is breathing, to experience hardship and struggles in a lifetime. I had my share. The losses of marriage, security and health have left their marks, but at the end of every hit I managed to get back on my feet. No choice, really, none of us do. And if I didn’t have it in me to hack it by myself, I was fortunate enough too have people around me ready give me a swift kick in the ass to get me moving.
And I got moving.
I moved from job to job, doing whatever it took to stay standing. I really loved some of them too. But each time I seemed to settle in, something, some event or circumstance would cause me to have to switch tacks again.
When finally my health got the better of me, limiting my mobility and hampering my cognitive functioning, I became useless.
No longer able to react with flexibility and resilience, I sank deep.
Even my life-long love of reading was gone. I couldn’t read (insert horrified gasp). For two years I was unable to focus my mind on even a single sentence. Wasn’t able to lose myself in the alternate worlds that had sustained me for so long.
I couldn’t find an outlet for my inherent creativity, something that had taken many shapes and forms over the years.
Almost fifty (at that time) and other than my amazingly awesome kids, I had nothing to show for it. Nothing to contribute anymore. And pain was what ruled my days.
But with their support, the endless patience of family and friends (I am tremendously blessed) and some much needed treatment, I surfaced. Slowly but surely.
And then I picked up a book. And read. And another, and another… soon I was reading like a fiend. Three books a day on average and I had something to say about all of them. So I wrote it down in a review. It was cathartic and I had a real knack for it.
A blogger was born and slowly my empty, endless days started filling with usefulness.—purpose. But I didn’t stop there. Although writing had never been the creative outlet of choice for me other than a brief dream in my younger years, I suddenly found myself with stories to tell.
My entire life to that point I had existed reacting to life—now I was ready to start living it. Grabbing hold of that wheel and driving it.
Two years later and I am realizing dreams I didn’t realize I had, and certainly didn’t think I would ever reach.
So when we were celebrating my daughter’s thirtieth birthday with our large broken, reassembled, blended, but more importantly, loving family last night, it hit me that at fifty-three, I’m finally growing up to be like my daughter.
Focused, determined and with confidence.

5 DAYS until....
"CRUEL WATER" the second of the Portland, ME, novels releases March 3rd!!
The early feedback so far has been PHENOMENAL!
I'm so excited to share this book with you.
Like "From Dust", the first Portland, ME, novel, "Cruel Water" is a journey of survival, redemption, healing and hope.
What some of the early reviewers said:
"The love affair is epic, the family issues are intense and the story constantly unfolds into an amazing piece of work."
-A. S.
"Freya Barker has written a story that is gritty, raw and real. A story about what happens when you have the worst thing imaginable happen to you, and the people who should be your support system, don’t believe you."
-Kez's Korner Book Blog
"Once in a while an author comes along and produces a book so well written that you are instantly hooked. For me, that is Freya Barker! Her style of writing is so emotionally driven, that you can't help but feel what her characters are feeling. Not many authors can pull that off, but I was instantly immersed in this story, just as I was in From Dust."
-Author Maureen Mayer

Blessed!
I haven't done a post in MONTHS!!! Shame on me... I'm afraid I've become addicted to writing and MUST get my daily writing fix. Even when I just sent one book off to the editor, I was already working on the next one. It's a disease, I tell you!
I hope you've seen that the third book in the Cedar Tree series has been released on April 1st? I've already received some wonderful feedback from the UK, my home country Canada and of course the US.
Here are a few snippets:
"Freya does it yet again. Against Me is wonderfully written with enough heat to keep Ya warm at night"
- D M Earl, Author
"The characters in these books are so real that you feel they could live next door."
- Lena G.
"Freya, they just keep getting better and better. I am sitting on pins and needles waiting to see what you have in store for us next with the Cedar Tree gang."
- Pam, Ripe For Reader
" I had some laughs and giggles, nail biting, but loved every page of this book, The characters in all of Freya's books seem so real. You feel like you know them.”
- Deb, Debs Books
"The depth of emotions laced with humor puts the Cedar Tree Series as one of my favorites.”
- Loves 2 Read Romance
"Just an amazing story where the author continues to get better and better.”
- DaHook for M&B Books Blog
"Yet again a book where the characters are "real" people, who suffer "real" issues. They don't bitch and moan, they take life and all it dishes out.”
- Lynn N.
Love these bits of praise - they give me the courage and motivation to trudge on. Hahahahaha, as if anyone could stop me!
The absolute crown on my launch was that for one day AGAINST ME stayed under the #5000 ranking on Amazon, and my other two books stayed under #10,000. Sure, it's not the top #100, but for me it was HUGE.
Now in Canada I managed to rank #44 on the Hot New Releases Bestsellers list for a bit... You had to be quick, cause it was gone within hours, but I was there!
All in all there has been wonderful response for Katie and Caleb's story and I couldn't be more thrilled.
I'm off writing again… Joe is waiting for his story called, CLEAN LINES, which you'll be able to add to your TBR list shortly. Early summer is my aim, but who knows??

Pre-Orders are up..... Phew!
It was a mad rush to the finish.... even though I thought I had planned everything out so carefully, the notices from various platforms announcing that submissions for releases prior to the end of the year had to be in before a certain date left me scrambling like a mad woman. Now those close to me would ask what would be different.... and they would probably be right, but let me tell you; two days after the final button was pushed and I'm STILL working on getting my blood pressure back down! Arghhh!!
But we are done! Edited, formatted, uploaded for both e-book and paperback. Cover resized for the final page count and approved. All I need to do now is sit back and wait...... for December 29th. And try to remember that we have Christmas around the corner, something if it weren't for that Christmas tree that took us a full week to decorate, would've completely passed me by.
So, forbidden by friends and family to write (although I am itching to have at it!), I have my Kindle loaded, my first batch of baking is in the oven and all that is left to do is hand you my pre-order links before I sign off, wishing you a peaceful, stressless, forgiving, painless, happy, joyful, simple and fun filled Christmas with loved ones.

Done!!
HUNDRED TO ONE is out of my hands, and in the hands of a group of scrutinizing beta-readers, after which it will be sent to my extremely talented editor, who will try to do her best to turn my story into a book worth reading!
Yesterday afternoon I typed "THE END" and I have to admit, I feel a little lost right now.
The last week went by in a blur, with my nose to the grindstone and life going on outside my writing-bubble. I think I'm having some withdrawal symptoms..... I keep wanting to start book three. Truth be told, I've been writing little snippets of scenes as they popped up in my head this last week. Funny how one story seems to lead you right into the next. At least so far for me.
Hang on a little longer while we make HUNDRED TO ONE as perfect for you as it can be, and then we'll talk about AGAINST ME… the working title for the third book in the Cedar Tree Series.
