“Giving Up” By Ariah Fine, On Sale Now

20 March 2008 12 Comments

If you didn’t already know, I wrote a book. Over the course of a month, last November, I wrote an entire fiction novel. It was my first book project and my first fiction work.

Anyways, I’ve self-published it through Createspace.com and it is now available for sale. If your interested in ordering a copy, here is the link to the e-store:
http://www.createspace.com/3335807

It will be available on Amazon.com soon is available on Amazon.com, but it will always be cheaper at my direct link. If you happen to be one of the lucky ones I’ll be hanging out with in one of the next few weekends, let me know and I can bulk order a copy for you for an even cheaper price.

For those who have no clue about my book, here’s the synopsis and cover below…

Carter Owen was on top of the world. The successful owner of Nelius Incorporated, with a home in the prestigious Garden Hills, Carter and his family had little to worry about. An abandoned factory, a once famous professor, and an ancient philosophy book turns their world upside down. With their values and the world as they know it in question, the Owen family stands on the brink of doing something they never thought possible…giving up.

    Dude, I made it through the order process as far as shipping.

    $24.65 for shipping to Canada?!

    Can’t do it. I’ll wait for Amazon.

    wilsonian,
    yikes! That’s extremely expensive!
    If I end up bulk ordering some copies I’ll ship you one myself, if it doesn’t list at Amazon sooner.

    Thanks for your interest though!

    Indie, great idea, I’ll get a pdf of the first few chapters up soon.

  • Jason J said:

    Thats really awesome!! Congratulations!

    Was the whole publishing process more or less work than you expected?

  • Ariah (author) said:

    Jason and Jason J,

    It’s messing with my head that I have two new readers both named Jason.
    Thanks for your interest, both of you.

    I published it at createspace.com which is pretty self guided. My next goal is to get something published by a real publisher which will probably be a lot more work.

    ha.. sorry to mess with your head.. I had the same problem on my own blog.. One of my friends kept commenting as Jason.. so I just went ahead and started calling myself Jason J..

    Done. But I ended up having it shipped to an uncle in New York State. Amazon wanted to charge more for shipping than the price of the book. lol…
