2 more days until Séduire is here!

October 30, 2024, is the targeted date for Séduire: Serial Tales & Flash Fiction, my first fiction book. However, I ran into a roadblock when trying to add the front cover you see above for the paperback version. That said, another front cover had to be created for the paperback version. As it stands, October 30, 2024, is still the targeted date for the E-Book version of Séduire ONLY.
Implementing a new front cover for the paperback version has delayed its publishing date, however, the front cover has been upgraded. For those of you who are old-school like me and prefer to hold a book in your hands, you will get Séduire: Serial Tales & Flash Fiction in an upgraded form as it pertains to the front cover, which is below:

The photograph used for the background image is one of my own (taken in the Western NC mountains earlier this year). This should be no surprise to those of you who have read my other books. Almost all of them have my photography as the book’s cover image. What I do not like about this situation is running into this roadblock so close to the publishing date. However, for the paperback version, I actually think this cover is more suitable. But I am biased.
Upgrading the front cover for the paperback version has now pushed its date for availability for purchase to at least November 04, 2024, to November 06, 2024. I will keep you updated and make a separate announcement for the paperback version when it is available and ready for purchase.
I have ordered my proof copy and I am simply awaiting its arrival to give it a once-over before I approve its release.
I appreciate your comments, love, encouragement, and willingness to come along with me on this journey. I have fallen in love with this book so far, and it is my hope and prayer that many, if not all of you, will do the same, too.
Below is the official description for Séduire: Serial Tales & Flash Fiction and what you can expect from the book:
Séduire is a collection of serial fiction tales and flash fiction standalone stories written over a period of three years. Dive into the world of a little girl whose family uproots and moves to “The Deep South” because of a new opportunity presented to her father. Transport yourself to the life of a little girl who becomes a mother and a sister to her child at the hands of her sadistic and evil father. Walk with a grieving sister and her mother as they remember a woman who was brutally murdered by her partner. Her young boys live out her legacy as they mourn her.
Experience parenthood as you enter the world of soon-to-be young parents and their ups and downs in life change them significantly while they journey along their new path. Make a brief cameo into the hearts of a dedicated aunt and a rebellious teenage niece whose father has lost his grip on his child.
There are so many more characters with which to connect. As you thumb through each page, the author wants you to feel something; with these stories, you will.

Haha! Thank you! You know, I’d forgotten that the publishing date was EXTREMELY close to Halloween. Completely forgot. Lol. It’s not a holiday I celebrate, so I wasn’t really thinking about it. Lol.
Thank you again, though!
