What's New Now & Soon!

8/26/2014

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.
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:
http://vickianne-caswell.weebly.com/my-books-reviews.html

Soon:

1. Photos
Expect new photos to be up & posted over the next while on the websites.
2. School Proposals
I still need to update proposals for both series' for the schools before I contact them again this year. You will be able to find them on both websites soon.
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.
4. Freckles the Bunny Series, Book # 6: The Freckle Monster Preview & Trailer
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.
5. Bundle Deal
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!

ISBN's & Morals

The Signed Books Sales page of the website and the notes section of the Facebook fan page (see "Book Titles and Pricing" note) all have the ISBN's and Morals/Lessons Learned added to them. I hope this will make it easier for you to find the book and/or to decide on which book you may like. If I missed any morals that you may see in them, please let me know. I've also added book sizes and how many pages to the odd ones that were missed previously.

Sick & Books 5 & 6

Hi! I am finally feeling better though I am not 100%. Things are moving along with book 5 and we hope to have it online before the end of April. I'm sorry about the lateness of the book but it was one heck of a respiratory infection that left me doing very little.

"Book # 5: Freckles and the Cost of Popularity" is already listed to pre-order and the buttons are there. I also have a pre-0rder button for "Book # 6: The Freckle Monster". There was a previous post on both of them so be sure to check them out!

Willy's Happy Endings Rescue Organization

I'm sorry to say that we are one less rescue for book 5. Willy's Happy Endings would still like to participate in placing their animals in the books, however, they are really busy at the moment and we haven't been able to get their signed form from them. We hope they will join us for the next book!

Shipping & Handling

Due to Canada Post's hike of the stamp, I've had to increase the amount of shipping & handling to another dollar. I am very sorry about this but we need to cover the cost. If you are planning on purchasing more then one book, we did add 2 package deals. As well, if you aren't happy with the cost for more then 2 books, please contact me and I can bill you instead as the shipping does go down a little with each book.

Freckles and the Cost of Popularity Book Preview & Trailer

As I said before, I am quite behind from being so sick. I am hoping to try and get the preview and trailer out this week or next at the latest. Be sure to keep an eye out for it! A "Preview" button has been added to the signed books sales page as well. This will help you to find the trailers a lot faster.

Be sure to keep an eye out! I will have some more updates throughout the week! Have a great week!

Contest Winners

We held 2 contests this month. One was because we reached 100 fans, so we were giving away a copy of Freckles the Bunny Series, Book # 3: Freckles Lends a Paw. The winner of that contest was Эль Мариаччи!

We also held our usual contest for the upcoming book. It was for a copy of Freckles the Bunny Series, Book # 4: Freckles and the True Meaning of Christmas. The winner of that contest was Valery Ozerskaya!

Congratulations to both the winners! Unfortunately, due to the lack of fan involvement, this will be our last contest for now. Perhaps once we develop a little larger of a group, we will try again. We want to thank everyone that has participated in the past! It has been greatly appreciated!

New Chapter Book Series

Copyrighted Material

As you know, I have been working on a new chapter book series based on Sherlock, our cat. I had been arguing with myself over the title and I've finally chosen one. The series will be called, "Sherlock the Remarkable Cat Series." You will sometimes see characters from Freckles the Bunny Series as Sherlock's brother is Boots. I am planning many things for this series and while I am finding that I sometimes have little time to do things, Freckles will always be first. I have only begun writing the series (between writing books 5 and 6), so I am not sure yet as to what you can expect. I promise it will be as great and entertaining as the other series is! Expect to see humor, a lot of Boots' family, cross-overs and more!

News

1. Upcoming School Visit:
Freckles III, Stew II and I will soon be visiting St. Philip's School here in Saskatoon. We are very excited to meet the students there as well as the teachers! Our visit is planned for October 22nd.

2. Book Edits
We edited books 1 through 3.
- Books 1 & 2 had some small edits of text and we've changed some things. These will soon say 2nd editions. Book 1 also had a craft added to it as it didn't have one and book 2 did.
- Book 3 needed some text edits as it seems we missed quite a bit. We apologize greatly for this and promise to do a better job next time. We also added a craft to this book. This will also be a second edition book.

3. Book Crafts
Each book will now have a craft in the back of them. The previous books that didn't have one, have now had them added. This will continue on throughout the Freckles series.

4. Pre-ordering Book # 4
We have decided to extend the pre-orders to October 20th, 2014. Every pre-paid, pre-order will receive a set of 6 character stickers (each main character included) or a Freckles pencil.

Happy Thanksgiving!

BUYING OPTIONS
    We realize that purchasing through Paypal on our website can be a pain. We are now taking orders through the contact link as well and we will figure out the shipping for you, then send an invoice. In this way, we will be able to charge less while you still use Paypal. Other payment options are as follows:

Send us a Money Order or Certified Check after we let you know the total with shipping.
Personal/business checks will only be accepted through schools and libraries. Sorry for any inconvenience.
