Only ebooks can be delivered by Christmas.

Five items to report: (#3 for how to get an upgrade to US Express shipping)

1. Think ebooks (pdfs), that are delivered to you via your email address.

Ebooks are a quick, inexpensive option. We have 27 titles starting at $14.95 that are delivered within hours to your email as a pdf, which you can reemail, put on a thumb drive, read on your computer, smart phone and table, or print out. Physical setting for some of the eBooks include Paris, Hawaii, a dude ranch, a Caribbean cruise, Dublin, Exuma, the golf course, and the vampire series.

Both The Magic Snow Globes and Season’s Greetings, Season’s Love – our Christmas books – come as ebooks.

If your lover reads on a Nook or a Kindle, an eBook is a great option. If you’ve never tried one, this may be your time. ($14.95 for a personalized story where you star with your Hunny in a sexy, romantic story verses a dozen roses (at lot more than $14.95 delivered) – duh, no brainer).

We also have Gift Cards that will be sent to you electronically as well. They make great gifts especially if you know the person wants a paperback or hardback and you don’t know all the answers to the questions (or have run out of time to get a book). You’ll find them on our site here: Gift Cards

2. Paperbacks: for today (Dec 19) and tomorrow (Dec 20) until 1:00 p.m. EST: plain paperbacks that are ordered with the US Express shipping option will reach USA addresses by December 24.

3. And for today and tomorrow (Dec 20) until 1:00 pm EST, you can get a free upgrade to US Express shipping by ordering two or more plain paperbacks and choose the standard shipping option by 1 p.m. EST, December 20. We’ll automatically upgrade you to US Express if you order 2 or more plain paperbacks and choose standard shipping, so DO NOT choose the Express shipping option if you are ordering 2 or more plain paperbacks.

3. Hardbacks and paperbacks with photos added are not available for Christmas delivery, not are international orders.

4. As to the rest, as a year-round business, we are still taking all orders (that will be delivered normally within a week – keeping in mind that the printing plants will have days off for the holidays), so when you think romance or anniversary or birthday or Valentine’s Day, think YourNovel.com where we make you the star in your own personalized romance novel.

There is more info in the previous postings, but for now you can’t get anything else delivered for Christmas except plain paperbacks with US Express shipping, eBooks, and gift cards.

Believe us, we’d love to keep making printed books to get to you by Christmas, but we are limited because they have to be physically made and mailed.

Here is the latest update:

Paperback books without photo added ordered with US Express shipping will arrive by December 24 if ordered today.

• No Hardbacks or international orders are available for Christmas.

• We encourage you to order eBooks (pdfs), that are delivered to you via your email address.

Ebooks are a quick, inexpensive option. We have 26 titles starting at $14.95 that are delivered within hours to your email as a pdf, which you can reemail, put on a thumb drive, read on your computer, smart phone and table, or print out.

After speaking with the printers, the production of books will continue as usual, but for Christmas delivery, these were the decisions:

Paperback books with regular ($7.00) S/H must be ordered by December 18 at 10 a.m. EST. They will be made and mailed by Friday, December 21. There is a possibility they will be delivered by December 24 if the USPS does its job and weather does not interfere, but delivery is not guaranteed.

If you really want a paperback book by December 24, the only way to guarantee deliver is to choose the US Express shipping option.

Hardback books must be ordered by 10 a.m. on the 18th as well and must use the US Express shipping option to guarantee delivery by December 24. After that time, no hardbacks can be made in time for Christmas delivery.

• No books can be delivered by Christmas to anywhere outside the United States.

We really encourage you to try the ebooks, which will be delivered electronically to your email address within 24 hours (usually less) of ordering. In addition to reading them on your computer, smart phone or table, you can print them out, wrap them up, and give them as physical presents. You can also email the pdf file to the recipient – imagine giving someone a new Kindle and having a personalized novel waiting for them when they fire up their new toy.

If you have questions, it’s best to email us at comments @ YourNovel.com.
