A stranger's Tale gets a second launch!

When we first launched A Stranger's Tale, only a few months in, Covid hit.
I worked in Emergency at the time as a Clerk and it was the beginning of one of the most busiest and stressful times of my life. We were physically and mentally exhausted, worried and frightened of what was going on in the world. While I worked extra shifts and overtime, some days even missing breaks to work through, my little book took a back seat as did my plans for a book launch, something I'd dreamed about for as long as I've been writing.

From there, we went into lockdown after lockdown. Events were cancelled, bookstores closed and the only source of self-promotion I had, was Instagram. And what an awesome and supportive community that is!

Sales were doing great but being from Australia meant that postage costs to international readers was also quite high. But still you guys showed your support and paid the crazy rates! I teared up quite a few times because self-doubt has always been a constant with me so with every review left, with every sale that came through, I grew more and more confident in my little story.

Then, Australia Post increased their prices and my heart sank.
I had to up the price.
For a while I didn't. I didn't think it was fair to charge so much but as time went on, I began to tally up how much I was losing from this and eventually had to increase the cost of postage.

Still, those sales kept coming through. But I wondered so often, how many people weren't able to order directly from me because of this? How many missed out, even though they really wanted a book?

And this right here is why I'm thrilled that Adam Oehlers is running this pre-order. Because now, the other side of the world gets access to copies that are signed by him and that come with a stunning, limited edition print of our Stranger. Copies of the book that aren't attached with exuberant postage cost that are an absolute killer for indie authors and their sales.

Our book was launched during a time where the whole world stopped. A time when so much was uncertain. Now, it gets a second chance. 🙏❤

Head on over to Adam's website www.nomadicalley.bigcartel.com/ where you'll find the link to the pre-order! 
But hurry as it's fast approaching the deadline before the pre-order ends.
