1. Fundraising Forms
I have two fundraising options online for organizations. Both equal the same profit but are handled differently. As this is the first time doing this, I always welcome input so feel free to share if these need changes, etc. These fundraising forms are for all the books I have written and not Freckles the Bunny Series only. You can find them here on the website:
http://www.sherlock-the-remarkable-cat-series.ca/story-readings-and-fundraising.html

2. Facebook Likes Contest Winners
The winner for the 100 Likes contest was Jennifer Sunshine. She won a free copy of the book.
The winner for the 125 Likes contest was Tim Smith. He won a free e-book copy.

3. Let's Get Another Facebook Likes Contest Going
If we can get 15 more likes on our Facebook fan page, we will have 150 likes. If we can make it there we will have a contest for a free copy of the book and a signed photo of Sherlock (signed by Sherlock's paw print). Visit the page here:

Have a great day everyone!

Sherlock has a contest going from now until November 15, 2014. Fill out the form below and like the Facebook page to enter to win! 1 entry per person!

Book 1 Update and Problems

We had some issues with pages being missing in the book. It is currently unavailable for purchase. Unfortunately, so are my copies until new ones come in. You can still pre-order though! I am now having troubles with Createspaces upload system which apparently doesn't like the series title inside the first page cover. This is being worked out and it will all hopefully be online soon. I will be sure to let you know! I will be sure to update you on the status though they've told me it could be a few business days.

Sherlock Contest Winner

The contest date has come to a close! The winner of a free copy of Sherlock's book is found on the Facebook fan page. Congratulations! I will be sending you out a signed copy as soon as I get the new ones in.

Rescues and the Books

Lastly, we are pleased to have the help of some rescues that are willing to share their knowledge with me for researching the next book. A special thanks goes out to:
Majestic Waterfowl Sanctuary and Berkshire Reptile Rescue!

Freckles the Bunny Series and Rescues

Freckles the Bunny Series is about to place two of Majestic Waterfowl Sanctuary's adoptables into the next book! This idea is courtesy of Anastasia Drogaitseva, my wonderful illustrator! We are also working on book 5 now. We have some pets in there (Pets in Books - see Freckles' website for details under the sales page) and a few rescued animals. Keep an eye out for a preview over the next month.

Sherlock Merchandise

I am working on putting together some Sherlock merchandise so keep an eye out!

Sherlock Book Updates

Book # 1: Sherlock, the Cat Who Couldn't Meow book cover

Copyrighted Material

Sherlock's book is close to release! We are just waiting on the last of the cover and from the looks of things, it will be well worth the wait! Awesome job Anastasia, as usual!!
Here is a sneak peak at the back cover!

The stamp is near complete as well and if everything goes as planned, I am hoping to have his book available for sale online, on Amazon.com this week! Once it is, I will be ordering some books for myself and taking pre-orders for signed copies.

Did You Know?

Did you know that before I even thought of creating a series for Sherlock, I'd already begun creating other things for him? The Facebook fan page called, "Stuff the Cat Doesn't Want You to Know" has many photos of him and his friends. It was made in fun but also so that Vickianne could practice tubing photos and practice using Photoshop. You can find it here:

To Have a Contest or to Not Have a Contest

I am currently debating about having a contest to win a free copy of Sherlock's first book. If you think we should, then click like on the website's post (either on the website or Facebook). If we can get about 20 likes on the posting between the two locations, I will hold a contest for a free copy of the first book.

Meet the Real Animals of Sherlock the Remarkable Cat Series

Have you seen the video? If not then please take a look! It is just a few of the great reasons to adopt instead of buying a new pet!

Facebook Updates

1/10/2014

Facebook Additions

I've added a few things in the NOTES section of the Facebook fan page. In these you will find:
1. Quotes of Sherlock Cat
- Sherlock tries to have a positive attitude and wants to share advice with his readers.

2. Photo Contest Rules
- This is rules for any free book contests we may have at a future date.

3. Book Reviews for the Series
- While we don't have any book reviews yet, we do have a place for them now.

4. Book Titles and Prices
- This is only partially done. We are just waiting to confirm the price and the link for Createspace.

I've added a few selections in the page TABS too.
1. A Youtube Tab
- that features our latest video. We have these on Freckles' fan page as well.

2. An Author's App Tab
- Lists books from the series as well as how to buy them and a free chapter or two.

3. Pinterest Tab
- We're now on Pinterest! Please note that each series has a separate account.

4. Goodreads Tab
- A list of all the books I've written as well as reviews of other author's books done by my daughter and I.

Free 1st Two Chapters and Sneak Peak

The free first two chapters that I offered on the website has been updated! It has been edited and also shows the Table of Contents so that you get a sneak peak at the book. I've also uploaded them on fan page in the Author's app tab! As soon as the cover is done, I will be posting a flip book preview onto the website so stay tuned!

Book Details

1. I've ordered a stamp and expect it soon. The stamp will allow Sherlock to "sign" his books just as Freckles does her's. The stamp is an actual print of Sherlock's and all signed books bought off of this website are signed by the author and him.

2. The cover is closer to done. This means that we will be releasing far sooner then expected so pay attention for any news updates about the book's release. I expect it will now be out no later then the middle of this month!
