Sherlock's Cutest Cat Winner

To start off, congratulations to our winners of Sherlock's Cutest Cat Contest. We will look at giving this a try next year!
The winners will have their cat in the next Freckles the Bunny Series book (both a photo and illustrated).

Facebook Likes Contests

Sherlock's Facebook page has received a lot of likes this year and for every 25 likes, we hold a free e-book contest. We seem to have had so many in the last while that we are now going to be having one for the whole summer! Want an idea on how it works? Take a look at the photo below. Winning is simple. Like the page, like the post (photo post on Facebook) and there you have it. Don't miss out on your chance to win! We will be doing one with Freckles as well once she reaches her mark.

Publishing Company

4/27/2015

We are pleased to announce that Vickianne and her books are now under a publishing company. The company still leaves full rights and ownership to the authors while publishing them through the company name and website. Nothing much has changed about the books but there will be some new creations added to the books thanks to this company. The company is currently working on a visual novel game app/program for children to learn about animals and the books while playing for free. If things go well with this release, we will be looking at some paid apps in the future. We look forward to working with the company!
Should a different publishing company come along down the road and shows interest in our books, we will happily see what they have to offer. In the meantime, be sure to check out the company's website (click the image) and like their Facebook fan page!

This Mornings Updates

3/13/2015

1. Freckles the Bunny Series, Book # 6: The Freckle Monster
Illustrations are done and we are getting closer to completing it. We still need some bullying information and editing yet before it is complete. Don't forget that you can still pre-order.

2. 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.freckles-the-bunny-series.ca/story-readings-and-fundraising.html

3. Facebook Likes Contest
We still need 9 more likes on Freckles' fan page to do another contest. This time we will do 2 free books to one lucky person. The one book will be book 3 (as a small bit of editing was missed) and a book of your choice. Visit the fan page here:

Have a great day everyone!

Rescue Donating Changes

We began helping rescue animals at first by donating $1/book to the Humboldt & Disctrict SPCA. We've donated books and packages as well as started placing the animals into books. Sherlock's write list all of the great reasons to adopt but this just doesn't seem like enough when trying to help animals. We are now also going to be posting events for these groups that we will be working with, whether they are in every book or just one.

Also, as all of the books mention, please read the Createspace page to find out who we are donating to. For some time we've donated sales through those links to the Humboldt & District SPCA and while it hasn't been much (most people don't use those links), it was some. Now we are beginning new things with the books. Kimberly from Majestic Waterfowl Sanctuary had planned to tell everyone about Rilo and Ranger being part of this book. Help with sales is always appreciated big or small but we feel that it wouldn't be fair to her or the ducks if we didn't donate $1/book to her group for awhile.

We would very much like to give everyone a chance so if any Humboldt & District supporters do wish to have their' $1/book donated, they just need to email me and let me know on either the Facebook page or from the website. Decisions like this are never easy but they have to be made.

$1/Book sold through Createspace will be donated to Majestic Waterfowl Sanctuary as of immediately. *Book pertaining to any Freckles the Bunny Series or Sherlock the Remarkable Cat Series book sold through Createspace links.

To learn more about Createspace sales, please visit our page or their website.

SHERLOCK NEWS:

Sherlock Book 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 Sherlock's Facebook fan page. Congratulations! I will be sending you out a signed copy as soon as I get the new ones in.

Sherlock Merchandise

I am currently working on putting together some Sherlock merchandise so keep an eye out on the website and his fan page!

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 Sherlock book. A special thanks goes out to:
Majestic Waterfowl Sanctuary and Berkshire Reptile Rescue!

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!
