Have You Seen This Book? Me Neither!

Have You Seen Me?

I called Genesis Press to see when/if I’d get author copies of Three Wishes in time to do some promo for the October 7th release. I also wondered if there were plans to reissue it’s sequel Through the Fire since it wasn’t available anywhere.

“Who said it wasn’t available?”

“Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Books a Million, Borders, and Waldenbooks,” I answer. “None of them show it in stock.”

“We have plenty of it.”

This is news to me. I mean, if you’ve got it, you should sell it, right? So I ask how we can get it back in these outlets since, you know, that’s where readers actually go to buy books.

“Just have them call me, and I can get them an order.”

So if anyone knows the romance buyers for Borders, Waldenbooks, Books-a-Million and/or Amazon.com, please have them contact me so that I can get them in touch with Genesis Press. Clearly, I’m the reason that this Romantic Times Reviewer’s Choice Award winning book is not in any of these retailers, even though all my other books are, and I must rectify this immediately.

To be fair, the nice lady I talked to did promise to check into it, for which I’m grateful. Because she knew exactly which book I was talking about and how much was in stock off the top of her head, without putting me on hold to verify or anything, so she must have superpowers and can fix it if anyone can. I wish I had the kind of memory to know the status of every book my company published over the years, especially a title that was released nearly three years ago. Maybe she’s got one of those photographic memories. If so, I think the federal government could use her skills.

Anyhoo, if you’d like to own a copy of the we-don’t-know-why-NONE-of-the-major-retailers-don’t-have-it Through the Fire, please order it directly from Genesis Press by clicking here. Even though the nice lady didn’t say so, I’m sure they could use the warehouse space for their other, newer titles.
