Why I Sell Books Direct
And What You Get That Amazon Can’t Offer
When I first started publishing, I thought Amazon would be the center of everything. It’s where so many readers shop, and it’s the platform we’ve all gotten used to.
But the more my worlds grew — the dragons, the Fate Series, the Matching shifters — the more I realized something important:
I wanted the experience of receiving one of my books to feel magical.
Not rushed.
Not stripped down.
Not squeezed through a system where the author is the last to know what’s happening with their own work.
So I made a choice that changed everything:
I built my own shop and began selling my books directly to readers.
Here’s why — and here’s what that means for you.
1. You Get a Beautiful, Personal Reading Experience
When you order from my store, your book doesn’t come from a warehouse.
It comes from me.
I wrap each book in brown paper, tie it with string, press a wax seal, and package it with care. Every order becomes its own little unboxing moment — something special, something you can feel before the first page even begins.
✨ Just look at this:
One of my readers, Bob Walker, said it best:
“The wrapping of each set of books is some of the most beautiful I have ever seen. What incredible presentation!”
— Bob Walker
His words meant the world — because that’s exactly what I hope readers feel when they open their box.
2. You Get Signed Books — Always
Every book I ship myself is signed.
Your book, your moment.
A signature shouldn’t be a rare event you hunt for at conventions. It should be something you get simply because you’re part of my community page.
3. You Support the Author, Not a Giant Corporation
Buying directly means:
- More of your money goes toward creating more books
- You help me pay editors, artists, cover designers, and printers
- You support the entire Scribbled Reads ecosystem
When you buy from my website, you’re voting for the stories you want more of — and helping me make them.
It’s a partnership, reader and writer, working together to bring more magic into the world.
4. You Get Early Access, Bonuses, and Special Versions
Because I control my store, I can offer things Amazon cannot:
- Exclusive bundles
- Collector sets
- Themed goodies
- Early releases
- Surprise bonuses
- Limited editions
My store becomes a cozy corner of the internet where readers get the best version of everything I create.
Amazon is great for convenience.
My shop is where the magic lives.
5. I Get to Connect With You Directly
One of my favorite parts of selling direct is seeing your names, your notes, your excitement. I get to package your order knowing exactly who it’s going to.
You’re not order #482193.
You’re a reader I care about — a real person stepping into the worlds I’ve built with heart and hope.
That connection means everything to me.
And direct sales let me honor it.
6. Direct Sales Keep My Worlds Alive
Every time you buy directly, you’re fueling the creation of:
- New YA fantasy books
- New shifter series
- New dragon songs
- New collector editions
- New children’s books
- New worlds full of hope and magic
It’s not just a purchase.
It’s a piece of the future of my stories — and you’re helping build it.
6.So Why Do I Sell Direct?
Because stories are personal.
Because I want reading to feel magical.
Because independent authors have more power than ever.
And because you deserve an experience as special as the worlds you’re stepping into.
Thank you for supporting my store, my books, my family, and my dream.
And as always —
may your reading be magical. ✨
