Hi lovelies,

I have some super-sad news to share with you all.

Taken from Parcel2Go.com:

“From August 29th 2025, all parcels sent to the United States will be subject to duties and taxes, regardless of their value. This follows a new Executive Order signed by President Trump on July 30th, 2025, which removes the long-standing de minimis exemption for shipments valued under $800.”

This means, in the short term at least (but possibly long term or even forever), I am going to have to switch off the option for postage to the USA on my direct paperback/hardback store. I have no idea what these fees and tariffs are going to be yet, or if they’ll even be affordable for people, plus how much admin would be involved for me. I certainly can’t afford to swallow any costs – I wish I could.

To make this situation a tiny bit less crappy, I’m offering a 10% discount on orders of over £9 placed through my store between now and 23:59 on the 21st August. This means I’d be looking to get any parcels in the post/mail on the 22nd and hopefully get to the USA well before those fees kick in. Added bonus: the discount code works for people ordering from other countries, too, so anyone looking to order signed books is onto a winner! Simply use the code SADTIMES at checkout to get your discount.

I hope you guys understand why I’ve had to do this.

The post Kynk Your Kyndle – 15th August ONLY! appeared first on Lucy Felthouse.

Hi lovelies,

I’m just back from a superb morning teaching a short course on writing erotic fiction that stands out at Swanwick Writers’ Summer School in Swanwick, Derbyshire. I had some lovely comments and feedback, and as well as making me very happy, it prompted me to share this testimonial I was sent regarding my spicy romantic fiction workshop:

“I attended Lucy’s Spicy Romance Writing Workshop in Hednesford back in February. I loved the mix of instruction alternating with opportunities to write. Lucy really made everyone feel welcome and I was quickly comfortable reading what I’d written to the rest of the small group. I’d neglected my writing in the years since I moved house, but this workshop really kicked me into action again.” ~ Bruce

It can be even more nerve-wracking putting yourself out there as a tutor than putting stories out, so feedback is always very much appreciated!

Happy Reading (and Writing, for those of you who do!),
