Hi friend, I wanted to write a short, honest post for the bookstores and readers who check here for practical information, so you can find what is true right now, all in one place, without having to guess.
Between the Lines and Blueprints is self-published via Lulu, and it is currently in the global distribution process. That is the honest wording from the For Bookstores page, and I am repeating it here on purpose, because I do not want anyone to be misled. Right now, the book is not available for bookstore orders yet, and I am not promising a date for when that will change. I know that is not the answer a bookstore hoping to stock it wants to hear, and I am grateful for your patience while the process runs its course.
What bookstores can find here
For reference, the paperback ISBN is 978-0-557-81708-5, and the book is 264 pages. The ebook ISBN is 978-0-557-77166-0. You will find those same details on the For Bookstores page, along with a way to get in touch. If you are a bookstore and you would like to be notified when there is a real update, please use the contact form on that page, or write to me at gabrielladequist@gmail.com. I will share an update here, in this Journal, as soon as there is something true and confirmed to share. Until then, please do not take anything else you see online as a promise about availability, because I have not made one.
I also want to be clear about what this category is not. It is not outreach, and it is not a sales push. It is simply a public record, so that anyone checking — a bookstore, a librarian, a book-club organizer — can see the same facts I have put on the For Bookstores page, in the same careful words.
Events
As for events, I have no public events confirmed to share yet. When I do — a signing, a reading, a book-club visit, or anything else — I will share the date, the place, and what will happen, right here, only after all three are confirmed. I will not invent an event, a venue, or a signing claim before then, and I hope you will understand why. I would much rather tell you something real, a little later, than something exciting that turns out not to be true.
For readers, in the meantime, the best places to start are still the Book 1 page, the Book 1 map, and the Book Club Questions, all linked from the site. And for bookstores, thank you for even considering my book. It means more than I can say, and I will keep this page updated honestly as the distribution process moves forward.
With all my thanks, Gabriella
