It's that time of year again. School is starting and so much more! Sorry I haven't blogged updates here in a bit but we've been rushing to get back into our house. Some things have been moving far faster then we planned. We are hoping for everything to slow down after next month and for us all to be settled in. In the meantime, here are some updates now & some to expect over the next month or so for all 3 websites: Now:
1. Website
I have finally managed to fix those pictures on Freckles' website.
2. School Visits in Your Area
I've already posted which areas we will be looking at visiting. The school proposals will explain more but it is free even if we have visited your school before. Feel free to contact us for more information. The areas include:
Saskatoon, SK
Humboldt, SK
Bruno, SK
Annaheim, SK
Cudworth, SK
Muenster, SK
Wakaw, SK
3. Erika-Elizabeth's Blog
As many know, Erika-Elizabeth is my daughter. She does the crafts for the books & video records them for children to do with her. She also does book reviews for me in her spare time (book reviews are on hold until we can get her computer down here). She has finally posted a second post and will continue to do so as the week progresses. Erika-Elizabeth has also co-authored Freckles' book # 6. Find her blog on Freckles' website & her review's on mine.
4. E-Book Sales
We currently have most books down for sale at $2.99 USD. Check them out on Barnes & Noble or Apple/Itunes.
5. Book Reviews
We have some new book reviews up for each series. Be sure to check out Sherlock's 1st book's review as well as Freckles' 4th & 5th books. You can find the reviews from here:

3. Freckles Book # 6 Pre-Order Special
A pre-order special for Freckles the Bunny Series, Book # 6: The Freckle Monster, is being put together as we speak. This is the bullying book I have been talking about. The release date has yet to be decided but it will be out before Christmas.

We will be working on the trailer and preview for the upcoming book very soon so keep an eye out on the website & Youtube channel.

A special bundle deal where you can buy a few books at a special price will be coming soon!

This is just some of what is to come!

#FrecklestheBunnySeries, Book # 5 have been ordered and will arrive here next week sometime. They still haven't fixed Bk # 4's cover on Amazon.com yet. I will contact them again come Wednesday. #Book # 6 is underway. It is entitled, "The Freckle Monster" and is a book on #bullying. Also, we are now #donating $1/book from all Createspace link sales to Majestic Waterfowl Sanctuary. Click on their name to check out their page. #child #picturebook #illustration

We now have a reviews area for the books. Please help and rate the series. 1 star is poor and 5 stars is excellent. You can also post comments below about why you rated it as you did. Thank you!
PS
The comments are public. I would like to use them on the website with first name and last initial only along with your review. Thank you!

I've begun writing Sherlock's second book. So far it is entitled, "Sherlock vs. the Greenie Meanie." This may change as I write but for now, this is the title. I've uploaded the first chapter to the website for those who can't wait. It is yet unedited. I always edit the final versions near release time. Feel free to take a look and read. It is in PDF format. Also, please note that I've changed the page name from "Books and Previews" to "Previews and Reviews." This means that the link is no longer the same.

Here is the link:
Previews and Reviews

Wow do you miss a lot when you are sick! I just realized that I missed stuff that I should have posted about. Here they are:

1. A photo of the new book cover. See the left picture.

2. We are sad to announce that Willy's Happy Endings will not be in Freckles book # 5 as they were really busy and unable to complete the forms in time. We hope they will be able to join us in another upcoming book!

3. Plenty of Freckles news but you will need to see her website!

4. A brief synopsis is up for Sherlock's book # 2. I am holding off on the rescue book for a short while as I need more ideas and time to research. In the meantime, you can read about the next one (subject to change). There is currently no date set for this book as of yet.

5. ISBN's and morals have been added to the book listings to give those interested in the books a better idea on what to expect from each one.

6. There is a review up for Sherlock's book. The review links are also with the book listings now for easy access.

7. I can't remember but I think I had troubles with the flip book preview. It is available now as are the first two chapters still. Be sure to check them out if you are interested!

That is all for the news for a short bit. I am currently trying to catch up on Freckles' 5th book which is overdue because I was so sick. Once that is done and I have these formatted for Smashwords, I will be working on Sherlock's next book so stay tuned!
