Element Preservers Series Update

So, even though it says on Smashwords that they ship books to B&N "every Thursday or Friday", Runaway still hasn't shipped. I've gotten a lot of questions about this and all I can say is that I'm sorry, but I can't do anything to speed things up. Hopefully, Runaway will be shipped next Thursday or Friday and be available "within a few days of shipment". The situation is the same with Kobo and Sony, so you'll have to wait a bit longer. I know how frustrating it is to wait because right now I'm staring at the shipment info and willing it to change, but nothing happens. Anyway, I assure you Runaway will be available for Nook soon. I can't tell you exactly how soon, but I hope there won't be any more delays.

UPDATE: Runaway has been shipped to B&N (09/03), so I guess that means it will be available in a few days. :D Finally Runaway is now available on B&N! http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/runaway-alycia-linwood/1112818893?ean=2940044796959

If anyone is looking for Runaway on iTunes/Apple, here is the link: http://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/alycia-linwood/id456604322?mt=11 I just noticed that Runaway has made it to the best-seller list in Children & Teen category in Canada! Thank you so much! You guys are awesome! I know Dangerous is on some lists too, but it's free, so yeah, that's not so unusual. :D Big thanks to everyone for reading my books!
Now we can talk about more interesting things. I'm working on the third book in Element Preservers series! I'd planned to start another series, but I changed my mind because the third book just wants to be written. And when something feels right, you just have to do it, right? I don't want to mention any dates yet or anything, but I can say that you won't have to wait as long as you had to for Runaway. I have the title already, but I'm not completely sure about it, so I'll wait before sharing it with you. I hope you're enjoying Runaway even more than Dangerous and I hope you'll be interested in reading the third book too! :D

  1. When you say shipment from B&N do you mean the physical copies?? Say it ain't so!

  2. No, not physical copies, e-copies. Runaway still isn't available on B&N and Smashwords calls sending the file to them shipment, so I do too.
