Amazon Message

One of my ever patient customers told me today that Amazon had sent a notice saying they couldn't get hold of Rachel's Shoe so they canceled his order. This no doubt went out to many or all my other customers and I guess there may be similar issues with retailers who buy through big distributors like Gardners.

Of course, I am extremely disappointed especially as I understood they were supposed to receive stock any day now.

My initial stock has almost been depleted and I am ordering more so if any of you wish to purchase directly from my site you can do. Just go to the 'Contact' page on my Rachel's Shoe website for details - I will update this later today to make it easier to see.

This crazy situation happens at a time when several stores have now taken stocks, newspaper, magazine, TV & radio interviews are going out, and my customers have been wonderful with the feedback they have given me about Rachel's Shoe.

There is also supposed to be a UK National Newspaper 2 page article on the publishers this weekend in the Sunday People. However, there are no stocks in the online book stores for many of the titles including Rachel's Shoe.

I just hope I haven't lost too many customers for ever who have given up waiting.

So if you would like to buy direct, please go to my website www.RachelsShoe.com .

To close this on a more positive note, I'll leave you with a couple of quotes from satisfied customers!

"Just to update you. I love the book and look forward to anything you may write in the future. I am recommending your book to my friends.
A movie would be wonderful." Sylvia

"Well Peter, the book arrived Yesterday afternoon--January 12Th 2009.I got up early this morning to finish it. I had read half last evening but couldn't even eat breakfast until i finished it. I know I'm not really a book critic, but I loved it. It was filled with mystery, intrigue, a love affair and a war all set in a place I've never been I loved it. It was a wonderful story. Thank you Kate"

Keep the faith!
