For those of you who got new ebook readers and are dying to try them, I’ve reduced the price of my books by a dollar on Smashwords (https://www.smashwords.com/profile/view/isabelpelech), and reduced <i>Echoes of the Ancients</i> on Amazon. (Reducing <i>The Fire-Moon</i> on Amazon would mess with my royalties.) This sale will last through the thirty-first.
In less happy news, I’m going to abandon the bit about ten cents of every purchase of <i>The Fire-Moon</i> going to the Syrian children’s relief fund. I’m not earning enough to give them a meaningful contribution; nickel and dime amounts would cost more money to process than they’re worth, and they don’t allow them anyway. I’m going to give them a ten dollar contribution now, which is their minimum as well as more than I’ve earned for them selling <i>The Fire-Moon,</i> and from now on, I’m going to rely on special sales to donate to relief funds and charities. The one I did for hurricane relief worked out pretty well.
I’m going to publish a new novella, called <i>The Rogue Ship,</i> in February.
