Hi Bookdragons!
          	
          	Fun announcement for those wanting physical copies! 
          	
          	Did you know you can get discounted hardcovers and paperbacks directly from my website if you live in the US or UK? My print service now offers this option. If you head over to the link provided, you can get Dragonwall paperbacks for $16 USD or £13 where as amazon sells them for like $24!!
          	
          	Also, Amazon is still having a sale on Talon the Black and you can get the hardcover for less than $20 USD!! Which is crazy! I don't know if they will offer the rest of the books on sale ever. But to get you started on your collection journey, that's a great bargain! 
          	
          	The remaining books in the series are releasing as follows:
          	
          	Bedelth (July 29th)

          	Dallin (December 16) 
          	
          	And those will also come available discounted on my website when they officially release. 
          	
          	Hope you are having a great Saturday!

@Livrelover909 Unfortunately my print company only currently allows US And UK. However, this feature is growing. Previously they only allowed US. So I have full confidence that some day, it will grow to other countries.

I've been off here for a while, I just came in to see this
          . I'm so excited and proud . You don't know me yes, but that series has to be the best I've ever read
          Will you do paperback ordo you guys call it hardcopy?
          
          I mean physical books because I'd really love to purchase. You are such a beautiful writer, I love how creative you are

addicted2dragons

@jonyi678 Hello my friend! Thank you for reaching out. You are so sweet. I'm honored that you would like to own these books for your shelves. The good news is YES these are available in physical copies. Books 1 - 4 can already be purchased and the remaining 3 are rapid releasing through the rest of the year: Bedelth (July 29th), Jovari (October 7) and Dallin (December 16) so you could have the whole completed series by the holidays :) 
            
            They can be purchased on Amazon, some book retailers can order them, if you are US based you can get discounted copies through the books page on my website.

Hey Mel!
          It’s been a hot minute, hope all is going well with you?
          I see you’ve been busy in my absence, and a lot of your amazing works are no longer available to read, is there somewhere I can go to keep reading?
          Also, Could you post a link to your website so I can get hard copies of all my favourites please!
          
          What happened to Dragonwall? I was looking forward to reading Dalin the Purple?
          Also, absolutely LOVE your new book, “Their Warrior” can’t get enough. Magic, gladiators and a reverse harem? Oh goodness. So far, so good.
          
          Always a huge fan, and a loyal book dragon. You inspire me to keep writing.
          Love forever,
          Savannah Rose

@SavannahRoseBell Hi Savannah! It looks like you've missed all the fun! Dallin's book published on Wattpad in April, and because I had almost all of it written in advance, I posted everything up over 1.5 months. It completed posting at the end of May, and I sent out the warning to readers that the Dragonwall series was moving over to Kindle / Amazon / Kindle Unlimited 30 days after the final chapter upload, to give everyone time to do any rereads or finish reading the series. 
            
            Dragonwall moved off Wattpad June 30th so it sounds like you just barely missed it :( 
            
            I would recommend subscribing to my author monthly newsletter where I keep everyone posted on changes like this, that way you can know all the tea! 
            
            Books 1 - 4 are currently available to purchase worldwide / amazon / KU, book 5 (July 29th) book 6( October 7th) and book 7 (December 16th) are dropping over the next several months. The full series will be available for purchase in hardcover and ebook by the end of the year. So you'll be able to finish your reading journey over the holidays. 
            
            My website is: authormelissamitchell.com 
            my email: authormelissamitchell@gmail.com
            
            If you have any questions just reach out.
            
            Special editions are basically sold out. But standard editions of 1 - 4 can be purchased discounted through the books page on my website. Or full price over on Amazon and other retailers as special orders. 
            
            Take care!

Hi addicted2dragons,
          
          I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you. Your writing has truly inspired me, and it played a big role in giving me the confidence to start working on my own book. Your storytelling, creativity, and passion lit a spark in me that I couldn’t ignore.
          
          I’ve recently begun my own journey as an author with a story called Flaming Heels: Not All Fire Roars. It’s still a work in progress, but I wanted to let you know that your work helped make it happen.
          
          Thank you for sharing your talent with the world — and for inspiring new writers like me to chase our dreams. 
          
          Wishing you all the best in your writing journey!
          
          P.S. I would love it if you could check out my book and gimme your views 
          https://www.wattpad.com/myworks/398640603-flaming-heels-not-all-fire-roars
          Warmly,
          Simren

@sjacob1903 Hi Simren, I'm so proud of you to take this step. Writing a story is not only a lot of work, but really intimidating and scary. Sharing it with the world means putting yourself out there and opening yourself up for critiques and criticisms, which is terrifying. Great job on taking that step. You should be really proud of yourself!

Hello! I just came into Wattpad after a while and I'm delighted (but also a little saddened haha) to see these next steps taken with your Dragonwall series. Honestly, I don't see how people can complain. You have spent years and years of hard work on these books and for all that time they have been free. You deserve all the payoff for them and even more. I headed straight for amazon to buy books 3,4 and 5 (I have 1 and 2 :D) but they unfortunately couldn't be shipped to me (UK) just wondering if it's an error or they aren't currently being shipped worldwide?

addicted2dragons

@diaazsh_ THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! Your kind words mean a lot to me. Yes, the books CAN be shipped worldwide, but for some reason, sometimes the system causes issues OR the price jumps way up. I have some people in the UK that worked out ordering directly through me, through my publisher. If you'd like to get your hands on copies and can't get them through amazon uk, then send me an email at authormelissamitchell@gmail.com and I will get them ordered for you if you're willing to use PayPal to pay me for the cost. I'll price it all out for you up front so you know how much the books plus shipping will be.

Hi from Cyrprus!! :))))
          I love your books. Especially the Dragonwall series. If i could , i would by the hardcopies for my sons.:). I believe they would love them as well. I am still waiting for them to learn english though!!;)
          Recently i have been reading the first book of The thirteen house series!! Loved it as well. I was wondering when do you upload the chapters.... I mean, how often. I have a hard time waiting!!:)) Could you "give us" a little more info on what is going to happen next?  ;)) 
          Looking forward to "hearing" from you!!
          Alex

addicted2dragons

@Alexia3547 Hi Alex! I'm so glad you love my work. That means the world to me. And I love the idea of your sons being able to enjoy Dragonwall once they can learn English. That would be an amazing thing to share with them. 
            
            As for The Thirteenth House book: Updates are every Monday and Friday (2 chapters per week). Posted at 12PM eastern standard time (that's my time zone). I'm not sure if you read the author's note/trigger warning page? That has a lot of hints about some of the heavier material that will be featured in the book, along with the post schedule, etc. 
            
            Anyway, I'm so glad you're enjoying it!

Hi author, I hope all is well. I saved your books on my tbr on Wattpad but now that I looked at it it wasn’t there. I’m not caught up on what’s happening but I was wondering where and when can I read the whole series? Please let me know, thank you! :)

addicted2dragons

@mk_writes_777 Hi my friend! I'm so honored to be on your TBR. The Dragonwall books were free on Wattpad for 10 years but have now moved over to Amazon / KU. The first 4 books are published there and the remaining 3 will publish July 29, October 7, and December 16 respectively. You should be able to read those on Amazon once they're out :)

Heyo. I was wondering if maybe the dragonwall series also being available on audible could be made a thing? Would love to hear both genders for voice actors if it is done though.  I feel like audible is also a great place for readers to find this series and a great option for those who can not/ do not have the time for a physical book and would be easier for them to listen to it. Just an idea. Thanks for your time and keep up the great work.

addicted2dragons

@zachs1115 Hello my friend! Thank you for your thoughts. I'm going to be 100% transparent with you, since a lot of people don't realize what it takes with audible:
            
            Yes! I have considered doing audible for Dragonwall. Ultimately it boils down to cost. And I DO PLAN to do this eventually. But it could take years. I will want to hire a good narrator/set of narrators. I did one book on audible already (blood and ballet) and it cost me nearly $2000 up front for the voice actor (because voice actors are still actors). Since these books are about 3x as long EACH. I will need to be able to pay my narrators about $6000 total for each book (because people don't work for free). So ultimately, I'd need like close to $50,000 for all 7 books...I don't have that kind of cash laying around. In all the years Dragonwall has been out there, I've never made even close to that from selling these books. 
            
            I think a lot of ppl don't understand the reality of how expensive stuff like this can be. And while the books would sell on audible, I'd only get about 20% - 40% of the profits. Which would ultimately bring in maybe $2 - $4 per book. I'd have to sell 12,500 audible books JUST to break even before I make a profit. So you can see, that's not really worth my time at the moment :( These books will need to get WAY more popular in physical form first. 
            
            So, where do we go from here? Tell your friends! Once I can get the ebooks/paperbacks/hardcovers to sell, I can have the money to save up to do audiobooks. Once these books get to about 2,000 reviews on Amazon (I'm at about 220) I can start to consider it :)
