Hi everyone! Today we are joining It’s Monday! What Are YOU Reading? The kiddy lit version hosted by Teacher Mentor Texts and Unleashing Readers.
Prancie’s Prayer is based on her true story of how she appeared at our outdoor nativity on a cold winter day. It is a Christmas book, but it is never too early to start your shopping. 🙂
I thought it was going to take 6 weeks for Prancie’s Prayer to be available, but it only took one week. I am thrilled, but it did throw me off with my marketing plan. I wish I could give every one of my blog readers one, but I can’t afford to do that. I have sent a few out to be reviewed ( I already contacted those bloggers about this).
I do have an offer for you all though. For anyone willing to write a review on Amazon, Goodreads or Barnes and Noble, I will give you an e-copy. You would have to put a disclosure on the review saying you were given a review copy. If you are interested, please let me know in the comment section and I will email you.Thank you.
I will be having a giveaway on here soon and on Goodreads for the paperback version.
If you want to purchase a copy ( or copies) through me, let me know in the comment section and I will contact you with my Paypal information. I am selling it through my blog for $10 which includes shipping in the USA.
It is available on Amazon for $12.99 with a Kindle version for $2.99. The Kindle version should be available internationally. It is also available on Barnes and Noble. I am trying to market it to religious stores and smaller bookstores too. If you have any of those near you, could you please tell me the names so I can look up their contact information. This is all new to me and I am determined to succeed because I have many more stories to tell.Thank you all for your help, it is greatly appreciated.
We are also joining Comedy Plus’ Awww..Mondays. I hope Prancie’s Prayer will make you say Awww..
How exciting! Good luck on Prancie’s Prayer – I think this is the perfect time for it to come out. You have lots of time to promote it for the holidays.

Ellen,
Oh wow! I’m so glad to hear your book is now available. I went straight to Amazon and bought the Kindle version. I read it immediately and left a review. It should show in 48 hours. I think it submitted it under ‘Curious as a Cathy’. Anyhow, you did a fabulous job on the story and the illustrations are purrrfect!
Let me know how I might help you promote your new book!!
Thank you. I appreciate your support and offer to help promote. XO

Thank you for the lovely comment on our precious little Diva.
She gave Diva a new meaning. Each time I see a sun puddle or a box I’ll smile. She gave me so much joy and I’m pretty sure she’d be royally UPSET if I quit blogging so I will be back …and who knows an Angelic Diva will probably fly every so often too.
Hugs and Proud to have been Mom of Madi
Cecilia
You will always be Madi’s Mom. I am so sorry for your loss. XO

OK, it looks like you answered my questions from my other comment (it pays to finally get caught up!). This is so exciting, and I definitely think things will pick up for you as Christmas gets closer. Do you have an age range you think this would be good for? I love to give books as Christmas gifts to children.
Oh, and congratulations – this is so exciting!
Ages 3-7. Thank you for the congratulations 🙂
Congrats on your new book, Ellen! It sounds great and just in time for Christmas. I followed this blog when I got started writing books: https://www.blog.yourfirst10kreaders.com/

Best of luck to you!
