Book prices going up soon

Hi, everyone,

I hope you’re having a good day so far. I woke up to some irritating news.

Amazon will be raising printing costs soon, so the prices of my paperback books will be rising–after June 20, 2023. If you want to snag some at the old prices. I’ll keep a few lower for the next week. Those whose prices have to be adjusted will be:

Romance (historical and fantasy romance respectively)

House of Dark Envy

Watchmaker’s Heart (A light, fun Victorian steampunk #romance with a spunky heroine!)

Watchmaker's Heart by Juli D. Revezzo, Steampunk romance — Will Mortimer’s unsavory past catch up to him before he convinces Phoebe of his devotion? Worse, once Phoebe learns the truth, will she ever trust him again?

Courting the Stationmaster’s Daughter

Courting the Stationmaster's Daugher by Juli D. Revezzo, Victorian Romance, new Historical romance, Juli D. Revezzo, jilted bride, older man younger woman romance — After Honorine Camden is jilted, leaving her stunned and sparking a scandal in her tiny London borough of Wallflower, she’s devastated. But when she overhears her father, the stationmaster, talking about arranging a party for their newly-minted underground railway station, she volunteers to help. Although she’s intrigued with the handsome assistant stationmaster, Shane MacIntyre, she never expects to fall head-over-heels in love with him. Unfortunately, one tragic accident might derail everything.

Engaging the Heiress

and for you urban fantasy/UF Romance lovers:

Changeling’s Crown

Keeper of the Grove

Bitter Thorn Tribe

and The Artist’s Inheritance will also be rising.

The Artist's Inheritance book cover. — Caitlin didn’t plan to live in a haunted house, but what’s a witch to do?

WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?

Simply, Big Business. The printers have raised their prices and unfortunately, Amazon passes that off to me, in the form of… cutting my royalties. As the printing rate hike cuts into my royalties, I have to raise the price to, you know, not make $0 every time y’all want a paperback. If you’ve bought books from any other marketplace lately, you’ll likely have noticed this.
From what I’ve been reading, Amazon is one of the last hold-outs as far as raising their prices go.* I don’t often say this, but good for Amazon!

Right?

I suppose it had to happen. Like you, I had hoped things would finally go back to normal, post pandemic, but like you, I’m still waiting for that fabled day.

Anyway, I hope you’ll find something you like, here. And, meanwhile, if you’re an ebook reader, those prices are staying the same (except for the occasional sale, of course).

(*Things are looking a bit crazy over there, anyway. If you noticed my post from three days ago, two of my paperbacks were going for less than $5; today Amazon’s got them priced at $7.27 and $7.91 respectively. Weird! Still a bargain since their normal list price is $11.99 and $12.99, FYI, but still.)

Now for a bit of good news. I’m back to writing! I’ve only just started a new manuscript, so it may be sometime before I have more news to share on that front. Since Christmas, I’ve been starting and abandoning several projects (hence, why I haven’t even made a Youtube video lately), but I feel confident this one is finally going to stick, as it were. We shall see. Stay tuned and hopefully, I’ll have something new to share with you all by or even before Fall. (Ye gods, how is it May, already???)

In the meantime, thanks for reading! I hope you are doing well, and find something there you’ll love, and don’t forget to leave a review, if you do.

best magical witches–er, wishes,
Juli D. Revezzo
