Elrich E-Readers June 2026
Giveaway Winner, Book Sale, Author Updates, and Book of the Month
Dear Reader,
I know this is a bit earlier than I usually email you (usually it’s the second Friday of every month), but I wanted to email you earlier because of the sale.
First, thank you for filling out my Reader Survey! It was fascinating to know where the audience is coming from, how much you know about my stories, and what you think I should do. I appreciate every single one of you who offered your opinion.
The winner of the $20 Amazon Gift Card is Sherry M.! You will be receiving an email with your gift card shortly.
The Reader Survey showed me many surprising things, but the most interesting was that many of you have not bought or read my books.
So I decided to do two things: run a sale and provide a reading plan with incentives for finishing the books and a possible live interview (if you want it!).

Daughters of Tamnarae Boxset (all 3 E-Books) for Sale $4.99 (normally $9.99)

Why is direct less? I make more from direct sales and immediately receive payment instead of Amazon taking a large cut.
Signed Paperbacks ($15+tax. + FREE Shipping)
Limited while Supplies Last
Audiobooks are always on Audible!
(Unfortunately, because of Audible’s terms of service, I am unable to put them on sale, but Audible has a 30 day free trial and my audiobooks run between 8-10 hours each, so it’s possible you could listen to all of them within the month)
Read-Along Challenge + Prizes
After you purchase the books, I would love for you to read my books and see if I am the author for you! I have several incentives and a plan listed below. For the lives, I plan on giving you behind-the-scenes information, including how I wrote the book, why I wrote the book, and other fun information you might not know.
After you are done with each book, you can fill out the form, or do it after finishing all three. For those of you who have read my books, you can fill out the form now. You also do not have to read it in the way I have paced it; you can always binge all three books now.
I will also be creating a Subscriber Chat for the Read-Along and to share spoilers (similar to a Facebook Group). You are not obligated to join Substack and the chat, but it may be fun if you choose to! Invites will be sent soon.

Other Author News
I have sold almost 1,000 books! This is amazing, and I feel so blessed by God. Thank you for making this possible, and my hope is that this sale will help me surpass the 1,000 milestone. So, even if you’ve read my books, please spread the word.
My editor has finished the developmental edit and returned my manuscript to me. I will be hard at work over the summer editing this book. I plan on posting updates on Substack about my progress and will let you know here how far I am.
Book of the Month
Aivan: The One Truth, the prequel novella to the Chronicles of the One Truth series, has a new look for the updated edition releasing June 30th 🎉
A story exploring identity, purpose, and what it means to have faith in a world content to spread falsehoods, the revised edition of Aivan: The One Truth will engage tweens, teens, and adults alike. Written by Kayla E. Green and publishing with Ambassador International, this is a fast-paced, allegorical fantasy adventure perfect for family read alouds, book clubs, or solo reading!
Blurb:
As granddaughter of the leader of a village in the northern nation, Rune Kallio has been a devout believer of the gods of vihishki her whole life. When a prophet challenges the beliefs of the world by saying only Aivan, the One Truth, is the only true God, she finds herself desperate to separate what is genuine from manmade falsehoods.
In the low valleys of the southern nation, Rolf Larsen has two lives. One lived in public following the gods of vihishki, as required by law, and the other lived in private following the One Truth. When Aivan directs him outside of his small village, Rolf follows. He quickly learns that the world will never make seeking and speaking truth easy.
That’s it for now. Next month, I will tell you more about Lavanna and what plans I have for her stories.
What’s a question you’d like to ask me?
I would love to answer it Live next month.
Let me know in the comments or by replying to this email.
Until Next Time,
M.H. Elrich
