Important announcements!
Hello everyone!
The ebook and audiobook of Soul Guardian are finally available for pre-order on Amazon! The book goes live Jan 27th.
Link is at the bottom of the page, because Royal Road doesn't allow links in the chapter.
Everyone involved did an amazing job, from Tsuu who did the new cover, to Sarah my editor, Giancarlo and Hannah who did a duet narration for the audiobook. Everyone gave it their all, and it shows.
It has been an incredible amount of work and I am freaking exhausted. Getting the final manuscript of Soul Guardian edited, dealing with formatting stuff for the ebook, and handling the marketing has been overwhelming. But it's done now! At least, the first part is.
Cozy fantasy and comedy in general are hard genres to break into on Amazon. Stories from new authors get lost in the torrent of books released every day, and since I'm not signed with a huge behemoth of a publisher... we're definitely the underdogs. But I'm going to give it my all to get this book out there to the people who will enjoy it.
So, what can you do to help?
This story originates from Royal Road. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Pre-order, read it on Kindle Unlimited, listen to it on Audible, review it or rate it when you are finished. If you have a spare credit, send it as a gift to someone you think will enjoy it.
If you are in any fantasy facebook groups, reddit communities, twitter, bluesky, etc, make a post to let people know about it and why you enjoy the book. No platform is too small, even if you only have ten followers, that's ten more people that see it and might give it a chance.Tell your favorite creators on booktok, or favorite book reviewers about it. Get them interested, so they share it with their followers.
I'm doing everything I can to make this book launch as good as it can be, and as successful as it can be, but it's out of my hands now.
It's up to you, the five thousand people who follow this story, and over ten thousand people who read it, to help spread the word.
Every post, comment on reddit, share of the cover on instagram, or mention on facebook makes a difference. It makes a quantifiable and recognizable difference, especially so close to release. I firmly believe that if enough people see this book, and find out that it exists, it can become a huge hit. The potential is there. But I can't do it alone. I need your help.
Getting this book launched has not been easy. Amazon refused to list the pre-order for almost three weeks because they needed to manually review it. Some of you may remember when my book got stolen and posted on Amazon, this is probably directly related to that. So, I'm on the back foot, and instead of a month to get pre-orders in, I've only got a week.
Because of the snafu with Amazon delaying the listing, I haven't had a link to give out to book reviewers or other people who might be able to help. So, I'm scrambling to make up for lost time. But I believe if we get all hands on deck, and work together, we can do something amazing.
Thank you for all your time, patience, and support. It has been an amazing experience writing this book, and getting to know you. I'm looking forward to writing more of it, and I hope you support the release.
What do you think?
