Store
Buying from my shop means you're supporting an author in a DIRECT way, allowing me more opportunities to create the stories you love! And I enjoy rewarding my readers with exclusive bundles, signed copies, and deals - including some really fun merchandise.
If you read ebooks, you'll still be able to read your book on ANY device: Kindles, your phone or tablet, computer, etc. See the next question!
After checking out, your ebook will be delivered to your email within minutes! The email will come from BookFunnel, which sets up a seamless experience to get your book on any device you choose to use. Just follow the instructions in the email and you'll be reading within minutes!
If you have any trouble downloading, reach out to me! BookFunnel also has amazing customer support, and they'll get you squared away in no time.
I accept all major credit cards, Paypal, as well as Apple & Google wallet payments. My shop runs on Shopify, and everything is handled securely through their Shop Pay portal. All you need is a debit or credit card, and you'll be set!
Shipping
I currently ship only within the U.S. For international customers, please click here to shop for my books.
Books are in stock and ready to ship within 2-3 business days. Standard shipping usually takes 2-5 business days to arrive.
Merchandise is made-to-order by a separate printing partner, and production times vary.
If you need your item faster, you can choose a faster shipping method when you check out.
Once your order has been shipped, you'll receive an email from me containing your tracking information. Simply click on the provided link in the email to view the current status and location of your shipment. If you encounter any issues or have further questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
Merchandise other than books are shipped separately by my printing partner. If you order books and merchandise, this means you may receive TWO packages (at no extra cost to you). Using a fulfillment partner for merchandise allows me to have more time to focus on writing my books! :)
Returns
If your item arrives damaged or you're otherwise unhappy with your purchase, please contact me within 30 days of purchase to make arrangements for a return. I'm happy to make it right!
I'll notify you once I’ve received and inspected your return, and let you know if the refund was approved or not. If approved, you’ll be automatically refunded on your original payment method within 10 business days. Please remember it can take some time for your bank or credit card company to process and post the refund too.
If more than 15 business days have passed since I’ve approved your return, please contact me.
The fastest way to ensure you get what you want is to return the item you have, and once the return is accepted, make a separate purchase for the new item.
Other Questions
First - I love this question! Reviews are SO important to authors. Even if it's just a quick sentence or two, reviews can encourage others to read my books!
You can post a review right here in my shop, as well as on Goodreads, or other retailers. Whether you enjoyed the book or not (totally fine!), thank you so much for taking the time to read and review!
IÂ have a free short story available just for my newsletter subscribers! This story can be enjoyed whether you have read my books or not. Subscribe hereto get your story!
Self-publishing, or independently publishing my book was a choice I made from the beginning - not a backup plan or last resort. I come from a family of entrepreneurs, and I've started businesses in the past. To me, the business side of publishing is just as fun as the writing!
Indie publishing has many advantages, such as control over my cover design and the content of my books, the ability to run and market my business the way I want, and higher royalty percentages (plus the ability to sell directly to my readers!).
My books go through a rigorous process of self-editing (multiple rounds!), beta readers, two rounds with a professional editor, and a final proofread. Many other indie authors do the same. I strive to create a great reading experience, regardless of how I'm published!
How exciting - don't ever give up on that dream! I have some great resources that have been a huge help to me along the way in my author career.
First, search for local writer's groups to join. If you're writing children's books or middle-grade, SCBWI is a great resource with local chapters.
It's no secret that I love to read, and that's how I love to learn! Here's a list of my favorite writing and publishing books.
The absolute BEST resource (in my opinion) for self-publishing is the 20Booksto50K Facebook group. This group and the conferences have been invaluable to me. Do a quick search for a wealth of information on all things self-publishing!
Feel free to contact me here, or connect with me on Instagram or Facebook. I love hearing from readers, and I'm happy to answer your questions!
