What is Chirp, and also DISCOUNTED BOOK


Just a quick note, because it has come to my attention that not everyone is familiar with Chirp Books!

Chirp is, shockingly to me, the place where I sell more of my books than any other, including Amazon! It is an audiobook retailer which does not force you to have a subscription. You download the app and buy books as you want them, no monthly fees. I had never heard of it before publishing books; I used primarily Audible and some Libro.fm. But apparently it's really popular, and it is also really easy for me to set up sales there.

Currently The War in Our Hearts is discounted on Chirp for $1.99 (regular price $10.50), and this sale will last through the 28th of November, so be sure to snap it up if you'd like it! You can listen to a sample on the website. Morag Hannah is authentically Scottish, reads beautifully, and she sings all of the songs quoted in the text.

(Morag is also co-author of the recently released The Needfire. Which I have not yet read, but only because I'm waiting for the audio to be available in the US! Because she narrated it and I love her voice, so I am sure I will be delighted by it.)

There will also be a sale on The Summer I Found Home and Shadows From the Sky starting on the 16th of December (George's birthday). Both will be $1.99, so if you've been thinking of getting the audio for either of those, mark that date on your calendar! There is still no audio for Believe in Me, but it will come eventually, I promise!

Anyway, I just wanted to alert y'all to the sale. If you have friends who love audiobooks, let them know! And of course you can always request that your library purchase the audiobooks for their digital collection as well, which is free to you and benefits everyone on your library system.

And now I'll disappear again - but not for another months-long radio silence, I hope!

Until next time, Eva

Hello and welcome to my doll newsletter! I'm Eva Seyler, I write historical fiction and play with dolls. My Kirsten doll in her winter outfit. The skirt and blouse were a set which I got with my doll in '89; the sweater, hat, and mittens were a separate set I just recently acquired, but they're also from 1989! I got my first American Girl doll, Kirsten Larson, at the age of six, for Christmas in 1989. I feel like everyone who was of a certain age back then knew the joys of perusing the...

Hello all and sundry. I have been thinking for months how I really need to send out a newsletter but to be honest the real reason I haven't is because I don't have a lot of book news to share. Since Believe in Me released in February (the month I last sent out a newsletter), I've finished #RussianBluesWIP and have been querying it in the hope I can get an agent and have it traditionally published. And that's a long and gruelling process and so far I've had seven agents decline and more that...

Greetings, all and sundry! BELIEVE IN ME is out in the world and I have begun serious work on #RussianBluesWIP. I already have a solid draft to work with, fortunately, so I can get to my favourite part, which is expanding where needed and polishing and connecting threads and hiding Easter Eggs. Please enjoy this aesthetic I have created for the incredibly hot Lancelot Fletcher, Kitty's sidekick. (Kitty is one of the main characters in #RussianBluesWIP.) (Yes, that's Regé-Jean Page, yes, he...
