Bob's 3rd Quarter Newsletter 2021

 

Hello friends and valued readers,

 

My new book, Sandcastle for Pegasus, is scheduled for release August 12, 2021. While the story, a contemporary, urban, fantasy, represents a major change of direction in my writing, I have been told by beta readers that a slight nuance of my mystery background tiptoes through the pages. My granddaughter, Emmy, who edits for me, and reads extensively in the fantasy genre, told me it was the best book I have written, and the most original time travel novel she has ever read. I aspire to retain current readers while expanding my audience. I hope you will give it a try.

There are other ways you can help. Please tell everyone you know, who might be interested, about the book, or ask your favorite bookstore or local library to order it for you. If you write a blog or newsletter, please mention or recommend, Sandcastle for Pegasus.

Here is the Amazon link:

Please don’t forget about my latest Detective Elliot novel, Identity Theft:

Welcome new readers. I will give the first three respondents an autographed copy of their choice – Chosen from one of my books of course: Twisted Perception, Beneath a Buried House, Footprints of a Dancer, Identity Theft, or Sandcastle for Pegasus – and all you have to do is send me an email at bob@bobavey.com

Please tell your friends about my newsletter.

 

 

I love each of you and pray that God will bring peace and love to you.

From the bottom of my heart, I thank you for your continued support.

Faith, Fantasy, and Fiction

Bob Avey’s 2nd Quarter 2021

Newsletter

 

 

Hello friends and valued readers,

 

I continue in my journey of healing. My daughter, Karen, suggested I try some exercise to help with fighting depression, so I recently joined a gym. I pray that it helps. The grief share group I joined through Asbury United Methodist Church has helped. 

 

My new book, Sandcastle for Pegasus: A Rift in Time, is scheduled for release August 12, 2021. While the story represents a major change of direction in my writing, I have been told by beta readers that a slight nuance of my mystery background tiptoes through the pages. It is not something I set out to do. My granddaughter, Emmy, who edits for me, told me it was the best book I have done, and the most original time travel novel she has ever read. I aspire to retain current readers while expanding my audience. I hope you will give it a try.

In addition, my publisher, Black Rose Writing, has decided to republish my back list, Twisted Perception, Beneath a Buried House, and Footprints of a Dancer:

 

https://www.blackrosewriting.com/mystery/twistedperception

https://www.blackrosewriting.com/mystery/beneathaburiedhouse

https://www.blackrosewriting.com/mystery/footprintsofadancer

 

The books will be formally released April 13, 2021.

 

Please don’t forget about my latest Detective Elliot novel, Identity Theft:

Bob's 1st Quarter 2021 Newsletter

Hello friends and valued readers,

 

Though my struggle to regain control of my life continues, I have managed to accomplish some work. My new book, Sandcastle for Pegasus: A Rift in Time, is scheduled for release August 12, 2021. While the story represents a major change of direction in my writing, I have been told by beta readers that a slight nuance of my mystery background tiptoes through the pages. It is not something I set out to do. I aspire to retain current readers while expanding my audience. I hope you will give it a try.

In the meantime, my recently – in my world anyway -- published novel, Identity Theft, suffered a fate of being released during the turmoil of my life in addition to the uncertainty of today’s world. As a result, I have not been able to promote the work and the sales reflect this. Having 4.3 out of 5 stars with 56 reviews, the book should be doing better. Although there appears to be an audio sample available, as far as I can determine, my publisher has not enabled the Read a Sample Feature.

In an admittedly self-promoting spirit to remedy this, I will make an offer: Anyone who purchases a copy of, Identity Theft: A Kenny Elliot Mystery, either paperback or e-book and does not enjoy the book, send me proof of purchase at bob@bobavey.com and I will refund your purchase price.

Welcome new readers. I will give the first three respondents an autographed copy of their choice – Chosen from one of my books of course, Twisted Perception; Beneath a Buried House; Footprints of a Dancer, and now, Identity Theft – and all you have to do is send me an email at bob@bobavey.com

Although I realized that Kathi and I had a good thing going, until my loss occurred, even I had not fathomed the depth of it. The Bible says: Therefore, a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. Kathi and I had truly achieved this. One of my ministers at Asbury United Methodist Church told me that my pain and tears are an indication of how much I loved her.

 

I love each of you and pray that God will bring peace and love to this world and His Kingdom.

From the bottom of my heart, I thank you for your continued support.
