Kickstarter

Hello Everyone,

Agatha Hattie is doing great so far, however I just wanted to share an article I wrote on my blog. Leslie and I are now in the phase of promoting Agatha Hattie. We are so proud of this book and really want to get it out there. While checking in with local indie bookstores in Seattle I received this response from a retailer:

“Thank you for thinking of our bookstore. Unfortunately, your book does not meet our current programming needs. In almost no circumstances do we promote CreateSpace or Kickstarter books, since they are products of Amazon, which has hurt independent businesses like ours across this country like no other thing ever. Best of luck going forward with your book.”

We were not aware of these issues when we started work on this book, since receiving this response I've researched it and yes there is a lot of this going on. We will continue to check in with local shops and see if we can find those who will support us. We really wanted to reach out to our local Seattle bookshops but we may not be welcome in some of them.

We want to thank you all again for believing in our project and helping us to get this far. We will keep moving forward in good spirits!

You can read more about our experience (here).

Thanks for your support! <3

We did it! Thanks to all of our backers Agatha Hattie, Queen of the Night is now a real book! Currently she is available on Amazon.com and will soon be available in catalogs for brick and motar stores and libraries. I will be contacting our CreateSpace rep next week to start work on the Kindle version of the book.

We have her registered with the Library of Congress and Leslie and I are currently scheduling tour dates for readings and signings. 

We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your support! You helped us publish our book and we are so grateful!

Lots of Love,

Jacquelyn and Leslie

Hello Everybody,

Today was a very productive day. The rewards have been shipped! It was a busy day at the post office once I walked in with stacks and stacks of envelopes, all sizes. 

The publishing package has been purchased! My husband and I spent the afternoon uploading all the book's content to CreateSpace and I have begun working with a project team for the book's layout.

I still do not have an official release date for Agatha Hattie: Queen of the Night, but I will keep everyone posted.

There is a lot of work to do with the book now that it's in production. I've never worked with a designer or project team before so this will be a good experience for me.

Agatha Hattie, Leslie Nan Moon and I would like to say thank you for your support. Keep an eye out for your rewards in the next few weeks. Please contact me if you have questions.

Your Pal,

Jacquelyn Fedyk
