Dear Reader,
I'd like to start off by saying thank you to everyone who has stuck with me for the past few years. You've helped me a great deal by leaving reviews, telling others about the Bradford men, Pytes, and all the disturbing books that I manage to put out :) I honestly couldn't ask for better readers. You guys are beyond awesome :)
Which brings me to why I am here tonight. As I've told you over the years, I have kept the prices of the books low so that they can stay affordable for everyone. As a mom of two special needs children, I know the importance of staying on a budget and needing an escape into a good book. So, I've done my best to keep the books priced between 99 cents and 2.99. I've been able to do this since 2012 and I would really like to continue doing that, but between taxes, royalty charges to publish, new taxes being imposed from other countries on each sale, I can't keep the books priced like this any longer and be able to continue writing the disturbing stories that I like to put out.
The suggested price to set the books is $4.99, but I can't in good conscience do that right now. I still want to keep the books at a fair price for everyone and leave them affordable. So, I am going to slowly turn the prices of the books to 3.99 for regular books. The NFH honeymoons will stay where they are at 99 cents. The same for the Chronicle collection. The box sets will reflect the changed prices with a discount.
To make up for the change, I am going to set Tall, Dark & Lonely and Playing for Keeps back to free for a while.
Within the next few weeks the NFH books will be changed from $2.99 to $3.99 and the Pyte books will move up to $2.99 and then eventually $3.99 as well. All new releases will be set at $3.99. I will do a pre-order of $2.99 as a thank you to the readers and then the price will switch to $3.99 once the pre-sale is over.
For those readers out there that cannot afford the price change, I will have a limited amount of coupons to reduce the price from Smashwords. Those readers will be given an opportunity to contact me for the coupon code without worry.
Other than that, the only other information I have is on the Audible books. They are doing their best to start the process. When I find out when the books are all set to go I will let everyone know. The Honeymoon from Hell series and all the books that haven't been made into audible will be completed.
Thank you very much for your time,
R.L.
