If you’re thinking of getting any of my books for the holidays, it couldn’t be easier. I’ve got you covered, even for autographed books!
First things first: The complete list of my books is here, on a single page. You can use that page as a starting point for anything available online—digital and print.
Now let’s talk about logistics, one step at a time…
Regarding e-books: Most of my books are readily available at the usual online stores (Amazon, Barnes & Noble) in e-book format. Just go to the above link, click the cover of the book you want, and choose your preferred store. The only exception is my children’s book on Fibonacci. That book is still only pubbed in print only.
Regarding print books: Physical copies of my books—especially the new ones—are available via Amazon, B&N, and your local bookstore. If a store doesn’t have the book you want in stock, they can order them. Those orders usually arrive quite quickly, but it doesn’t hurt to plan ahead.
Regarding autographed books: If you want books autographed by me, the best way to do that is to contact the indie bookstore in my town, Malaprop’s, and order personalized, autographed copies of whatever tickles your fancy. Signed books make great one-of-a-kind gifts.
Here’s the skinny on signed books:
Call Malaprop’s directly at 1-800-441-9829 or 828-254-6734. Just tell them…
Which book you want to order.
Most books can be personalized, unless you are buying them Christmas Eve, at which time I’ll be facedown in a puddle of eggnog and unlikely to saddle up and drive to the bookstore to autograph your book. So, call early, and let them know how you want the book personalized. To you? To the mother-in-law you’re always trying to suck up to? Your frenemy? Do you want it to say “Merry Christmas,” “Happy Holidays,” “Happy Thanksgiving,” “For a mystery buff,” or nothing at all?
Give them your payment information and shipping address.
Make sure you get your order in by December 7th for delivery in the US by Christmas.
That’s it! If you follow those few simple instructions, Malaprop’s will phone me, invite me in to sign, and ship your book out to you or to the person of your choice.
But wait—there’s more!
A complete list of books by my wife, the New York Times Bestselling author Denise Kiernan, is here. Her new Thanksgiving books are right at the top of the page.
But what about gift wrapping?
Yes indeed, Malaprop’s does gift wrap—for FREE. So, you can have that autographed book gift-wrapped AND have a gift card attached to it.
Can I order online?
Technically, yes, but calling is much more efficient, less ambiguous, and, in the long run, will take less of your time.
Which books of yours can I order?
All of them, really. As noted earlier, my complete list is here, on a single page. (The Fibonacci book is here.)
Allow me to single out for your reading pleasure my two newest novels! They are:
Sorceress Kringle: The Woman Who Became Santa Claus
A gender-bending fantasy novel about Santa—the way you never imagined her.
Meet the Book Lady. She sells books, eats well, and has a very large brain. Criminals fear her.
Happy shopping, and thanks for supporting a local independent author and bookstore!
