Home 9 Newsletter 9 Black Kat News: Sept 2019

Greetings, Darlings. 

Hugh Harrison here.
Well, not quite “here,” actually. If you’ve read the latest Black Kat book, God Save the Queen, you may know that I’ve done a bit of traveling as of late. I’m technically missing, as is my dear brother, but I’m pleased to announce that I’ve finally found him! Or rather, he found me, and dragged me somewhere…otherworldly. It looks a bit like this:

The internet connection here is horrendous, but through Dale’s craftiness, I’ve been able to compile this letter and send it through the ether to bring you all our latest news and exciting events. Read on, my friends!

And On With the News…

 

1. PRINT VERSIONS: First things first: Black Kat is in print now! I am excited beyond words to actually hold my words in hand. I do love books. We hope you do too!

You can find the print books listed next to our eBooks on the product pages, plus you can find all of them here. We tried to keep the cost down. Print on demand is more expensive than print runs. Most of our print books will be 9.99. God Save the Queen was twice the size of the others. The lowest we could get that one was 12.99. We’re really pleased with how beautiful they came out and hope you’ll enjoy them too. They are 5″x 8.25″. Not too big or too small. Just right.

And they really did come out lovely:

Of course, I could look at Kat’s cheeky side all day. (Did I say that out loud?)

2. SERIES PAGES: We now have series pages on Amazon! Unlucky Charm is a prequel, so unfortunately is not included in the list of eBooks. but did make it onto the print book page (go figure.) You will be able to find all of the Black Kat books as they become available on these pages, including upcoming pre-orders. 

You’ll find the eBooks here:

And the print ones here:

Please note: If the thumbnails of the print books look a little washed out online, it’s because we had to lighten the covers up for print, which tends to be darker. We received proofs of all three books, and they look great, though the glossy covers make it hard to do it justice when photographing them. The light bounces right off:

3. PRE-ORDERS: The series pages bring me to the next topic…Pre-orders! Amazon has just allowed authors to put in pre-orders up to a year in advance. This is exciting news, because it means we’ll be able to create our covers, descriptions and book pages much earlier than we’ve previously been allowed to. See below for upcoming pre-orders and stay tuned to our series pages for more updates, along with our website and this newsletter. We will be trying to send out monthly updates.

4. FREEBIE: If you missed our God Save the Queen wallpaper, grab it here. We are working on a new freebie for next month’s newsletter that you’re going to love! 

6. OTHER READS:
What else do you enjoy reading? We’d love to hear about them and share them with our audience.
