One of these days, we fully intend to get the And More shop side of HWB up and running. This is actually something above and beyond the bookstore aspect, which is also currently a work in progress discussed in a previous post.
The And More shop, when we get it running, will sell merchandise related to the books we publish. This may include jewelry, character dolls, fancy bookmarks... it's going to depend a lot on what fans of the books and short stories would like to have.
It may also sell the fruits of our authors other creative endeavours such as prints of Lexa's manipulated photos or Sarah's one of a kind and custom creations.

Those who have been paying attention may have noticed it's been a while since we listed a book giveaway on Goodreads for a new release. This isn't because we don't want to give books away. More that it feels like throwing our money into a black hole. While people do mark the book as 'to read', that's where it ends.
And the books given away aren't generating reviews. Since the point of the giveaway is to get the books into the hands of people to read and review, the lack of reviews means no return on investment for us.
Small publishers (like HWB) and independent authors are dependent on ratings and reviews posted on sites like Amazon and Goodreads. If you read our work, we really do need you to rate and review it. We need you to tell your friends and family about it. That's how word about our work spreads and enables us to continue writing and publishing.

Those who have looked at the About Us page of this site will see that there are slideshows highlighting some of our creative endeavours, beyond writing stories.
Lexa likes to take pictures of all kinds of things, although primarily nature, and then play with the photos in paint.net. There is one collection of her manipulated photos currently available in print. She hasn't decided whether there will be more to come.
Sarah (that'd be me) likes to design and create clothing and costumes, household items and jewelry. We hope to eventually offer some of her work as part of the And More shop, when we get that up and running.
Should more authors come aboard, we would more than welcome them to share their other creative endeavours, if they feel so inclined.
