Yes– it’s true. My first book, Three Before Nine: A Story of a Childhood, is now available as a paperback and an e-book in the UK, the US, and everywhere else Amazon and Ingram Spark sell books. I have my own Author Page on the British and American Amazon sites. If you do decide to buy the book through Amazon, please remember to add the word ‘Smile’ at the start of the URL. That will allow you to select a charity and Amazon will then donate a small percentage of the sale to the charity of your choice. It would make me a very happy author to think that my book had helped out a good cause, even just a little, so thanks in advance. I run Kindle promotions once a term which means you can sometimes download my book for free. Sign up to my mailing list if you want to be reminded about promotions a few days in advance.
If you don’t mind waiting a few more days for the paperback to ship, please consider buying Three Before Nine: A Story of a Childhood from bookshop.org. You could also ask your favourite independent bookseller to consider stocking a copy as the book is on Gardner’s extended catalogue.
If you’d like to keep up with what I’m reading, I’ve started an Author Page at Goodreads. I hope you’ll stop by, and maybe even set yourself a Reading Challenge while you’re at it.
If you do happen to read my book and you enjoy it, I’d be thrilled if you could leave me a review on either Amazon (if that’s where you bought it) or Goodreads. Better yet, tell your friends about it. Thank you so much!
