Loving Deacon
Good News! Loving Deacon has been released. It is currently available from the publisher at:
https://www.createspace.com/3458763
It will be available on Amazon in five to seven days. They build the page in stages, so it may appear earlier with just the cover and title. The description and author information will be added later. After that it will make its way through the distribution process and become available to other booksellers in six to eight weeks. I won't have any books available locally for a little while. As soon as I can order books they will be available through the Jones and Plummer Trail Museum in Beaver. We lost our main outlet in Liberal with the closing of the Hastings store there. So as you can tell we'll be depending upon online sales for the most part.
If you do purchase the book online, I'd really appreciate it if you could take the time to leave a review. I know people probably get tired of hearing me say that, but the reviews make a huge difference to people who have never heard of the book and it also helps the rankings for the book on the site from which it is ordered. Even negative reviews can help the rank, so if you don't like it feel free to say so. Whispers in the Wind received only one review on Kindle and it makes it difficult to convince someone to buy it if there are no reviews, even harder when the only review is not so favorable.
Whispers in the Wind is On Sale for both Nook and Kindle book readers. It can be downloaded for 99 cents. If you're looking for a summer read or you know someone who is, it is at the lowest price Amazon will allow it to go. If you don't have a Kindle or Nook, both can be downloaded to your PC or to your Blackberry, Android, or Iphone.
My next project is to finish the screenplay for Whispers in the Wind. That is more of a personal goal than anything. I started it and I feel the need to finish it. It's possible it will never see the light of day, but at least I'll know it is finished. I have begun to review The Ladder Climber and even uploaded a cover, but it's still a long way from publishing. I have several other projects I'm going back and forth on, most of which I have mentioned here on the blog or on Facebook. I'd like to have the next novel ready in six to eight months rather than the year it has taken to get Loving Deacon out there. I've always wanted a Christmas novel, so who knows?
Well, that's the latest news from the Lemieux household. I hope you're enjoying your summer. I also hope you enjoy the book and find some value in what I have written. Until later, happy reading.
