Dear reader,
The behind-the-scenes of publishing is constantly changing. In an effort to keep up and have a stronger foundation to survive the changes, I’ve opened up my own online bookstore.
As a small business, I’m a one-woman operation and will strive to offer excellent customer service. As time allows, I’ll be adding more and more offerings to the store. To begin, I’ve got ebooks and audiobooks up. Later, I’ll be adding various print options, including signed books.

Ebooks with concept art
I’ve created over 70 images for the Fairy-tale Inheritance Series! If you get my newsletter, you’ll see samples of these illustrated scenes, but most of these images are exclusive to the ebooks and only available through my new store. It’s been quite fun to work with the new AI programs to try and develop art that is based on the books. To see Cinderella’s dress in a department store window, or Mairin as a mermaid swimming near the Titanic, has been exciting. I hope you also enjoy this new way of exploring the novels.
What if I read print books or listen to the audiobooks?
You’ll still be able to get access to the concept art. I’ve bundled all the images together, along with all the bonus content like epilogues or an alternate POV scene all in one place. You won’t have to keep coming back to this website to download a new bonus chapter; just read them as you get to them! I hope that simplifies things for you.
Audiobooks
Buy the audiobooks directly from me and listen using the Bookfunnel app. Bookfunnel has been my delivery partner for my bonus content for years, so if you’ve ever picked up a bonus chapter from me, you will be familiar with this company.
The Fairy-tale Inheritance Series is narrated by the talented Catherine Gaffney. You will enjoy the warmth and enthusiasm in her voice as she expands the novels into dramatized audio. She is amazingly talented and takes on each new character and accent with aplomb. You’ll want to listen to each book just to hear what she does next!
Two audiobooks are still in the works: The Little Mermaid’s Voice (in development now!) and Cinderella’s Legacy (next).
Print Books and Signed Copies
There are a few more behind-the-scenes technical things I need to do to get the paperbacks out to you. I should have that all figured out by the end of summer. I’ll probably do two things: print-on-demand, where you place an order and the book gets printed and shipped directly to you. I can include a pre-signed title page so you’ll also get my unique signature for each book. Secondly, hand-signed books that I ship out myself; likely for special occasions, like Christmas.
International Orders
When will you open the store in my country?
As of June 2024, the store is open in the USA and almost all of Canada. As I learn about and complete the tax responsibility information for each country, I will open up in new countries. Thank you for your patience!
