A day in paradise

Jennifer Osuna Ausa

Perfect spot to finish a novel

Pause, enjoy the beauty of nature

Admire the vastness of the sea

When Jeanette sent me these pictures from her vacation in the Philippines, I was both astonished and overwhelmed. The color of the sky and the front book cover merged together flawlessly. She seemed to be having a wonderful time at the lovely El Nido resort. She had that glow that only warm weather could give her, and I could sense how the gentleness of the wind and a little heat from the sun kissed her skin. You wanted to stay there forever because of its serenity,

This is one of the best images illustrating “revenge mistaken.”

Every time I see my book in my reader’s hands while they are on their adventure journey, I feel honored and humbled. They motivate me to write better and increase my knowledge so that I can create the best tale I can share with the world.

I am thankful that I have family and friends who are always there for me and help promote my book.

To Jeanette: thank you for sharing your day in paradise.

Books for Philippines

Jennifer Osuna Ausa

One book sale at a time

Let us begin 2023 with the second batch of signed copies for the Philippines. Over the weekend, I gave myself time to sign the pre-ordered books for my family and friends in Manila, Philippines. As a first-time self-published author, promoting my book to be included in the mainstream is really difficult. I contacted twenty local bookstores, but only a handful replied to my email, and only one was interested in hosting me for a book signing inside their bookstore. But I’m not complaining; I have to work hard to reach my personal goal of having my book on the shelves of every bookstore.

When? I have no idea, but I am keeping my faith that one day we could see Revenge Mistaken inside every bookstore. For now, I am reaching out to my network and their networks. One book sale at a time, rather than quitting in the middle of everything.

I hope I can find a bookstore owner in the Philippines who I can ask to host a book launch. As a Filipina author, I hope my Kababayan will be proud to see one of their own published a book in Canada.

Again, my book is a fiction romance, not my own story.

I’m thankful to those who ordered their books. 

Special Page

Haydee

She’s the first person to read my manuscript from the start. The joy she brought me every time I sent her a new chapter made me pursue writing this book until the end. We have a sixteen-hour difference, and we have our own regular jobs, but we gave each other time to communicate and discuss the new chapter. But after Chapter 9, I stopped sending her updates because I wanted to surprise her with the new twist in my book. Finally, two days ago, we chatted again after she’d finished reading, and I asked her if while reading my book she had guessed that Ivy and (sorry, couldn’t reveal the name to avoid spoiler alert!!!) were related, and she said NO. Seeing her reply made me realized that I achieved my goal of giving my reader a revelation in the latter part of my novel.

I’m so glad that I have someone like Haydee who’s always there for me. She has a special page in my book!

Do you have someone who’s always there for you?

Enjoy last few weeks of summer

Summer is nearly at its end, and I am prepared to embrace autumn, my favorite season. Some people feel fall is the start of withering leaves, cold weather, and lots of rain in Vancouver, but I always thought autumn was the start of reflection and reevaluating my life journey.

Someone took a chance on me

Available at Steveston Bookstore, Steveston Village, Richmond Selling a book by an indie or self-published author is challenging. Most of the books sold were online or at webstores.
