What has happened to Ruth Apollonia? What will happen to Annabelle?
Greetings Goodreads readers,
In January 2017 the publishing company Ruth Apollonia was using was shut down and, as of that time, none of her books have been available for purchase online.
Confusing as it was, for she writes to evangelize, her inner monologue was this: "I did it for You, God. If You want them to be re-published, then they will be somehow." And so began her contemplation: to self-publish or to not. Considering her possibilities, while still chugging away at Annabelle's continuing story--book 4--she went to the Catholic Writers Guild's Live Conference in 2017.
Through her involvement with the Guild, she had learned the difficulty of finding a legitimate publishing house (not a vanity press) willing to publish Catholic Fiction. Suffice it to say, she was leaning toward self-publishing so that they could "get out there" as soon as possible.
However, it was at this Live Conference in 2017 that she learned Marian Press -- the publishing company of the Congregation of the Marian Father of the Immaculate Conception of the Most Blessed Virgin Mary -- was interested in publishing young adult novels as another way to evangelize.
Ruth Apollonia--through the intercession of Mary Immaculate--provided a review copy of Annabelle of Anchony: Burdens of the Mind to Marian Press.
It is with great humility at the awesome power of intercessory prayer that it is announced: Marian Press is picking up the Annabelle of Anchony series! This is to include the yet-to-be-published fourth book.
The books will be re-edited and better than ever! Look for the first book, Annabelle of Anchony: Burdens of the Mind, June 2019!
While you wait for the anticipated release date, follow Annabelle on Instagram at Annabelle_of_Anchony.
Blessings to all and see you in June!
