EBOOKS (ALL COUNTRIES)

The best way to support me is to purchase the ebooks directly from my store when they’re available, or on Amazon when they are not.

Kindle Unlimited readers: even if you want to support me by re-reading my work several times on K.U., authors only get paid the first time. So if you really loved the book, consider purchasing it the next time you want to read it.

When my books aren’t exclusive to Amazon, you can also buy them on Apple, Google Play, Kobo, Barnes and Noble and a few others. That works too.

For paperbacks, it depends on your region (see below).

PAPERBACKS

USA

The best place to buy my paperbacks at this point is Amazon (they offer the best royalties). But although it doesn’t pay, I really appreciate people ordering my books from indie bookstores, or from Barnes and Noble stores. The more people order my books, the more bookshop owners might take notice of them and might even stock them one day.

UNITED KINGDOM

The best place to buy my paperbacks is The Great British Bookshop. They’re not a monolith like Amazon, so they charge for shipping, but the quality of the print is vastly superior, and the royalties are better. The second place is Amazon.

But although it doesn’t pay, I really appreciate people ordering my books from indie bookstores, especially from the infamous Gay’s The Word bookshop in London. The more readers place orders there, the more likely the owners might stock my books one day, and I would be proud to see my work on their shelves. So the next time you visit the shop, ask them about my books, and be rewarded in the next life! (No promises, though.)

EUROPE / REST OF THE WORLD

The best place to buy my paperbacks at this point is Amazon (they offer the best royalties). But although it doesn’t pay, I really appreciate people ordering my books from indie bookstores. The more people order my books, the more bookshop owners might take notice of them and might even stock them one day.

If you have difficulties finding my books, Blackwell’s and The Great British Bookshop ship to many destinations, but you will have to pay custom fees (on top of shipping fees) depending on your country of residence, so be very careful before placing an order.

The book is no longer available except to readers who have purchased a previous edition before July 2023. You’ll find all the information about that here.

I’ve heard the complaints: You’re The One For Me is too slow and way too long, it needs to be cut in half, there’s too much dialogue that serves no purpose. (As an appreciator or endless dialogue, I humbly disagree on the last one, oops.)

Bear in mind that I have no idea what I’m doing, and so I’m making mistakes and I’m trying to learn from them. Of course, re-editing the book has been on my mind, but for every complaint I receive, I get two messages from readers who love it as long as it is.

Though I’m acutely aware of the problems in this book, I’m going to own my mistakes and leave it as is, because to some, it’s a beloved slow burn of a book, and a summer favourite.

Yes, yes you can (potentially).

As of now, I’ve opened ARC applications for three of my books (Colette International 1 to 3), meaning I’m open to give away a free book in exchange for a voluntary review. You can find more information here.

I have no intention of opening ARC applications for Code Name: 1989 (Colette International Book 5).

Finally, ARCs will be offered to the first 50 subscribers of the Dead Things Came To Life Updates mailing list* as well as Patreon supporters if I ever launch my Patreon page.

* The 50 spots have already been claimed.

Although I would love for my books to be adapted into audiobooks, I can’t afford the costs of production at this stage of my career.

I’m taking this opportunity to remind you I know what it’s like to be broke, but I do not and will never support the use of artificial intelligence to replace narrators, to generate art / book covers, or to write and translate novels—using data stolen from unconsenting artists.

I do not support generative AI as it exists today. Assistive AI is a different matter.

I’m not responsible for printing issues. However, if the book you purchased was missing a chapter, or featured another formatting error making the reading experience impossible, please reach out to me with proof of purchase and a picture of the problem, and I will replace your copy for you free of charge.

Note that if you report to me a major flaw in the ebook version, I will have it replaced immediately. Then you will be able to update your copy manually, or Kindle will do it for you if you have the “Automatic Updates” enabled in your Amazon account settings. If that doesn’t work, I will send you a new copy by email.

I am aware of the missing chapter in a later version of He Looks So Fine: Part One. A maximum of 14 copies are concerned. Please reach out for a free replacement.
