My book, The Proverbs of Middle-earth, came out 6 months before my publisher folded, so since then I’ve self-published – dependent on word of mouth.
It’s done very well.
My original goal was to sell 2000 – I’m now at 3202.
Buy one! Direct or via Amazon.

One of the childlike things I love about Goldberry is that she plays dress-up. When the Hobbits arrive she's arrayed as a waterlily; the next day (when it's wet) she's dressed as a fish; when they say goodbye she's a sunlit flower reaching toward the sun. Dressing up is great.
