"Realmwalkers" is now at Hastings Book Store!

It's been a busy August and September. Between selling books, I went on vacation for two weeks and then I went on a four day retreat to a guest ranch. But now I am back home again and ready to continue promoting and selling Realmwalkers. I hope you all have been enjoying a terrific summer!

Last Monday, I went to my local Hastings Book Store and made a deal there to sell Realmwalkers. So many people have asked me if the book was at Hastings that I made it a point to take several copies there and sign a contract. These copies are only available at the Lake Havasu City branch but later this month, I will be driving up to Bullhead City with more books to sell at the Hastings branch there. Kingman is a bit of a drive, but if sales go well in Bullhead City and in Lake Havasu, I may expand.

And more good news! On November 12th (from 10 - 2pm), I will be at the Lake Havasu City Hastings for my very first Book Signing! I am already working on making flyers and postcards to promote the event and I will be giving away free Realmwalkers bookmarkers and candy to everyone who comes to say hello. Another shipment of books is on its way so I have plenty on hand to sell and autograph to those who can make it. I know many of you won't be in the area, but keep me your thoughts and prayers for a successful event anyway. If you have any advice on how to prepare for a book signing, please leave me comments here. I would really appreciate it.

Response to the book has been limited so far, but positive! Marketing takes a lot of time and work but someone has to do it. Thank you all for your support and encouragment. I welcome any helpful feedback to improve my writing for any future stories whether they be in book form or online.

Marketing and Future Plans

The books have been selling nicely as many friends and fellow writers have stepped up to buy a book. Such support has been very touching and exciting as I continue to promote wherever I can.  Most of my marketing supplies are homemade, but effective in getting the word out locally. I also found out that some online book sellers like Amazon.com are now selling Realmwalkers. I can't sign those, but they are fast and in a few cases even less expensive than I can sell here at my blog.

One day soon, I hope to get back to writing my short stories featuring some of the characters in the book which I will post here. There will be more maps here soon, as well as a glossary to help out with some of the archaic words used in the book. I also plan to draw some more illustrations to post here along with the stories. Stop by and subscribe here for future updates.

More than a Novel

Book Cover Design

Realmwalkers is a 6" X 9" softcover book that weighs just under 2 lbs. It has 460 pages of text and graphics and is just over 1" thick.  It has 21 full page illustrations and 10 small images, artwork and graphics that took me hours to draw and enhance by computer. This is no pocket size novel and I chose this size so you wouldn't have to squint to read it. The cover is printed on 10pt stock, full color and laminated for durability. The interior paper is not the cheap, thin greyish newspaper used in many novels on the market.  It is library-quality with professional trade paperback binding and sturdy 60 lb. bright white paper.

The Books are Here!

This is a very exciting time for me as I pack the books received into their large bubble-wrapped packages. I have sold several by internet and even more locally to friends and neighbors. I have decided to cover the loose page ends with cardstock so that while it is in transit, it will be protected from bending or folding. It's important to me that the book arrives in perfect condition. And while this shipment lasts, if anyone orders a book here, I will be able to package and mail it the following day. Their book should arrive in 2 - 7 working days.

Order your books now!

I am taking orders now. The book shipment will be here by Aug 2nd and I will autograph any orders and mail them out to you as soon as possible. Click on the scroll to the left and use the secure Paypal order form. I will be notified of your payment and order and send you "Realmwalkers" as soon as I can.

Realmwalkers Shipment due August 2nd!

I spent the last week finalizing the second proof copy of Realmwalkers. It has a new background that looks a little darker but clearer than the first background. My first shipment is due next Aug. 2nd and so I shall be bringing a few books to sell at the following LHCWG meeting. Most of this order is already "spoken for", but books will still be available though this blog and through my eStore online. If you don't live in Lake Havasu City, Laughlin or Bullhead City, you may want to use this blog site to place an order.

I will be putting up a "BUY ME" button here very in the next few days. Come back soon and look for it. The "Buy Me" button is from Paypal who will accept major credit card and Paypal payments.  I will get your payment from Paypal and will send you an autographed copy of the novel directly to you.

Realmwalkers will also be available at Amazon.com and other outlets. I am currently looking into doing a booksigning at Hastings.

Leave any questions or comments if you are interested. If you want a chapter sample, I can email you a copy of that.

Thanks again to my friends and family who have been so supportive. Very excited! =D

Preview "Realmwalkers" Now

Appearing mysteriously in a medieval world of magic and beauty, a young woman pulls herself from a secluded lake and discovers she has lost her memory. In order to survive, she struggles to find work and learns about the world of Tiaera until she meets three immortal realmwalkers and a “sentry” of incredible futuristic technology. Led by a powerful lightchild, Alain Harper, the realmwalkers reveal they come from a realm light years away, on a mission to help Tiaera’s goddess, Astria, and her people fight the devastating attacks from monstrous creatures and evil god-like beings. When the realmwalkers try to restore Solita’s memory, they soon realize that she is not just a cosmically displaced woman with amnesia, but also a key figure in the ultimate battle to save Tiaera from total destruction.

Book Piracy and Realmwalkers

The World of Tiaera

REALMWALKERS is Coming Soon!

Audrey and Carlyn stand outside a bookseller shoppe and see the new book being displayed.  The book cover features a bow and quiver, a strange looking 'window' with the image of Tiaera inside it and a long sword.

"Hmmm... a book about welmwalkeos?" says Audrey, pointing with her little gnomish finger.  "I wondeo if Masteo Alain knows 'bout dis."


Carlyn isn't impressed. "I thought we were going to the tavern. I can't read anything while I am thinking about a nice cold brew." 


" Okies, I doubt we will be in da book anyways. Let us away. I wanna a dwink too."
