It\u2019s been a long hard slog these past two months trying to get everything done on it and tested. I\u2019ve learned my lesson though\u2014never do a complete website overhaul to coincide with a new release. It\u2019s just too stressful. It\u2019s difficult enough to do one or the other but doing both at once was crazy. But the website is finally done, and I think it looks pretty nifty. There\u2019s plenty of new stuff there and improved stuff too&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>I am now selling my books direct through my website. You can sign up for an account and purchase books, which will appear on your permanent bookshelf. I only offer PDF and HTML e-books on my website, as you can purchase my books in different formats at other distributors. If you have been purchasing my books through Alinar Publishing, I\u2019m taking a copy of the sales data for my stories and I\u2019m adding it to my site, so any sale prior to right now will be on your bookshelf if you sign up using the same email address as you used at Alinar Publishing. If you find some of your books are missing when you do this, let me know and I\u2019ll look into it.<\/p>\n<p>Another area I\u2019ve improved is the book pages. I\u2019ve added some social media stuff so you can share the book with friends if you enjoyed it, or think they would enjoy it, and also added Facebook Like functionality, so you can like the book, and even leave a comment!<\/p>\n<p>I have also added the ability to sign up for my newsletter. Signing up just means that you\u2019ll receive an email when I have a new release, or do anything major to my website (such as adding fun things to the new section I have planned). You can either sign up to the newsletter when you sign up to the site, or you can use the link on the left hand navigation of the website or click on this link: <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/cpWecC\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/cpWecC<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Now, take a look at my new website: <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/bSU2O1\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/bSU2O1<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Let me know what you think. All comments are welcome. You can either leave me a comment at my blog, on my Facebook post, or via email at <a href=\"mailto:author@felicityheaton.com\">author@felicityheaton.com<\/a> or on my Twitter. I would love to hear what you think of the new website and I\u2019m always open to suggestions for other stuff you would like to see on my website.<\/p>\n<p>As mentioned, I do have a new section in progress. It\u2019s going to be full of character interviews (including those we\u2019ve done in the past), drabbles (short 100 fiction based on my stories), competitions, and other stuff. If you have a suggestion for something to go in there, let me know and I\u2019ll see if I can add it in.<\/p>\n<p>Also, if you want a real laugh to brighten your weekend\u2026 there\u2019s a picture of me on the bio page now: <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/aslZj9\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/aslZj9<\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re on Facebook, I now have a Facebook profile there which you\u2019re welcome to friend and I\u2019ll friend you back, or I have a Facebook Fan Page for my books. <\/p>\n<p>Facebook Profile: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/feheaton\">http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/feheaton<\/a><br \/>Facebook Fan Page:  <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/cOM0Vq\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/cOM0Vq<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019ve finally launched my new website.
