Hey there happy reader!
I’ve been writing and self-publishing since 2017. I’ve learned a lot along the way and have met amazing authors and readers in the most unexpected places. But nothing could have prepared me for the email I received from the publisher of Vinci Books…
Vinci is a British publishing company, specializing in works written by indie authors like me. They’ve asked me to come join them and have taken on my backlist – all my currently published titles – and will be rebranding them with new covers, as well as producing audio books and foreign translations. They will also be distributing my books in both brick-and-mortar stores and libraries…
YES! IT’S A DREAM COME TRUE!!!
The idea is to give me a chance to concentrate on my writing and let someone else deal with the social media, advertising, and sales aspects of book publishing.
I am so happy to turn that part of this job over to a group of professionals – it means more time to create and less time crunching numbers.
I have my first team meeting tomorrow, so I’ll have more to share as time goes on.
Vinci is interested in my next book, “Below the Horizon” as well, and their artistic director is the person who designed two of my previous covers – “The Wick and the Flame” and “The Woodcarver’s Secret.” I’m excited to see what his cover concept will be for my Stonehenge project.
I guess it all boils down to this: I would not have been chosen for this bounty without all of YOU!
I am grateful every day and look forward to bringing you more stories as time goes on. We’re in this together!
Finally, I hope that you are enjoying the warm summer days. Grab your beach bag, put your book inside and find a shady spot to read! You deserve the me time…
As always, let me know what you think!
xoxo,
Hilari
