Hello, dear friends. I have made a big goof and need to try and rectify it. I could make a million excuses, but the bottom line is I missed the deadline to upload my manuscript for Painting Christmas to KDP for the pre-order.
As a result, the pre-order got canceled.
SO…
Thank you to everyone who pre-ordered. If you are inclined to do so, there is a new pre-order link available here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0HM8BB7PZ/
The publication date got pushed to 10-11-26.
Please bear with me. Know I am doing my best to keep all the balls in the air. This one dropped and I fee awful.
Thank you all for helping! I love this community.

Jan, we all make goofs. Don’t feel bad. And I’ve already placed another order. A little delay isn’t going to change a wonderful new release from you!
Thank you SO much, Mae! I appreciate you!
Things happen. I am slowly learning not to be so hard on myself. It is a worthy goal.
That’s a tough lesson, Craig!
Happens to the best of us! Just preordered it again 🙂
You are too kind, Nicholas! Thank you!
Okay, Hello Jan, so sorry that you got mixed up in some jam, must be depressing but hey, don’t beat yourself up, life gives us hard knocks but keep going. I am new to your Blog by the way so I wanted to just share my comment and I am from ESWATINI. AFRICA by the way, so nice to see other Bloggers from other countries here.
Thank you for your kind comment. Welcome to my blog! Yes, we have a diverse group here.
It’ll be fine, don’t beat yourself up. As they say, no one died 😊
Thanks, Charlie!
There’s nothing you can do that will make this community leave you. Whenever you say you’re ready we’ll be there with bated breath!
Thank you, Linda!
Don’t feel too bad, Jan. I think things will as well as can be expected.
Errors happen, Jan. Don’t treat yourself badly because you made a mistake. I think it will straighten out.

Not a problem. It happens!
Thank you, Liz!
You’re welcome, Jan!
Don’t beat yourself up, Jan; these things happen. I’m sure those who’ve pre-ordered will do so again. You’ll get through. 💜
Thank you, Laura!
Not a big issue; it’s happened to all of us.
Good to know, John. Thank you.
I know, you feel bad, but everyone understands that sh** simply happens. Don’t worry, Jan!
Thank you, Erika. I am sure you could feel my angst. It’s all good in the scope of things.
I totally get you, Jan, in both the angst and the greater context.
We’re with you, Jan!
Thank you, Joy!
Oh dear, well, it’s not as bad as what’s happened to me. I decided to publish with my previous publisher and she’s now said she can’t publish it on Amazon because there is now a charge. If I’d known I would have self published 🤦♀️
Oh wow, Robbie. Amazon does not charge to publish so that’s just wrong. This publishing journey gets convoluted sometimes. So sorry that happened to you.
Amazon charges other publishers. Anyhow, onwards and upwards 🌞🌈
Everyone makes mistakes. You shouldn’t waste any time feeling bad about this, particularly since you let everyone know what happened.
Thank you Pete!
Thank you, Pete!
This is easy to do, Jan. Don’t feel bad. We all want to read it no matter what! Sending hugs xo
Thank you so much, Denise! I appreciate the support!
Always!
No problem. These things happen. Glad I’m not the only one who does stuff like this!!
Thank you, Darlene!
I’m really so sorry to hear that, Jan. I hope everything is OK for you. You have my full support, always. 🙏☺️
Thank you for the encouragement, Aptivi! I deeply appreciate it!
You’re most welcome, Jan! Have a wonderful rest of your week! ☺️
Thank you so much!
You’re most welcome! Enjoy the rest of your week! ☺️
Don’t feel awful. We’ll still read it no matter what day it comes out.👍
Thank you SO much, Priscilla! Hugs!
