No Books to sell

My publisher, HenschelHAUS Publishing, offered to re-publish my first two books – Murphy’s Troubles and Out of Darkness to improve their appearance and create the Irish Trouble Series.  The third book in the series, Dead Reckoning, was under separate contract (published April 2018).

At the time we signed the contracts in January 2018 I had already accepted an invitation to attend the Milwaukee Irish Fest August 17-19 – the largest Irish Fest in the Midwest.  I will be in the Cultural Tent during the Fest selling my books.  The organizers of the Cultural Tent suggest bringing a minimum of 50 books to sell during the weekend.  A friend of mine participated in the Cultural Tent last year and sold 135 books.

The contract calls for the books to be published by June 30 or no later than 6 months after contract signing – or July 24,2018.  I received one box of Murphy’s Troubles on August 8th.  As of August 15th I have not received any copies of Out of Darkness. 
​
That means I will not have the complete Irish Troubles Series available to sell at the largest Irish Fest in the Midwest.
