If I buy a paperback, how long does it take to get to me? 

It depends which country you're in, and which shipping option you choose at checkout. It won't be 'next day shipping' though! 

Each book is printed and sent to you specifically from the independent printer I use here in the UK, or sometimes in the US, depending on the format. 

In the UK, it can be 7-10 working days, and 10-15 working days to reach you outside the UK. Thank you for your patience!

Why would I buy a paperback from you when I can get it on one of the big online stores for a cheaper price and free shipping? 

Thank you for asking. There is no way independent authors can compete with the big online stores, so basically, you are supporting me and also my independent printer. We appreciate your custom.

The books are excellent quality and soon we may make book for the US available via the US printing facility. Please see Shipping Policy for more details.

Does it help if I buy direct? In what ways?

 

If you buy direct, authors and printers and all other collaborators in the store, get paid within hours or days, rather than months. Thank you!

While authors love to have their books in big stores it is not as easy to have books distributed by the Big Publishers. Direct stores allow authors and their collaborators to feature our products without having other products advertised against them. 

How can I contact you with any more questions? 

You can email me: lightshadowandink@icloud.com, use the chat function on the right hand side. I will answer within 24-48 hours.

Should I Choose to Track my Orders?

Yes Tracking is preferable. I have left it up to you have a choice. Either track or not track, but from experience it is best to do so.

You can choose which service to have the order (books) sent by.

With untracked shipments to some international destinations in some instances, I have seen this take anywhere from 10 - 20 working days depending if there is any delays in customs.
