My novel Ring is available for pre-order! It will be shipped in January. Pre-order is a way to support a book, because the number purchased during the pre-order period affects things like whether and in what volume physical bookstores carry it.
Ring is available on Bookshop.org, which I prefer because it supports local bookstores. My publisher, Bancroft Press, prefers Amazon because purchases there affect rankings which then affect other things I won’t pretend to understand. Ring is also available online from Barnes and Noble, which once-upon-a-time I boycotted because it was driving small bookstores out of business, until Amazon told it to hold its beer. Now it seems like a family business in comparison so I’m including that link too.
Ring is being released as a trade paperback rather than solely as a hardcover, so the price is lower. It’s a good book club book for any group that likes literary fiction or books with LGBTQ+ characters or books about animals or that wants to read about grief or depression, as it delves into a lot of philosophical issues that provoke discussion. After the book is out I’d be happy to attend any book club that so desires, in person if near me or online. As a trigger warning, there is some discussion in the novel of suicide and suicidal ideation.
thanks for your support,
Michelle
