New on CD and Coming Soon….!

Well, we can’t believe a year has flown by but here we are, it’s 2012 and Fenella has almost gone through her first printing, selling all around the world,  as well as going from being a book to also being an Audio Book CD and is well on her way to becoming an eBook! The Audio Book CD and the book itself are available right here at Fenella’s Flights and Friends, just go to Fenella’s Shop for details.

We are really proud of the Audio Book CD – working with Dave Alexander was a novel and fantastic experience as he composed the perfect music to accompany the reading by the author herself ( ahem, that’s me :-) It was my first time in a studio, but everything went just perfect, Dave made it all so easy and fun, and next thing I knew, my job was done and I was just waiting for Dave to finish composing Fenella’s music. I had heard bits and pieces, but the first time I sat down and heard the whole thing I was blown away by how beautiful, fun and descriptive the music is. I hope you will be, too!

So do give Fenella, the book and the Audio CD a try, we think you’ll be pleased that you did! And thanks for stopping by….

Susannah and Fenella’s First Blog!

HI and thank you for joining Fenella and me here at Fenellas’ Flights and Friends!  We hope you are enjoying all the little nooks and crannies of our website – do keep checking back because we have plenty more planned as we go along.  Here on our blog we will get to keep you up to date on what is happening in my and Fenellas’ world, where we have been and where we are going, and what is being said about the book. 

It’s been a whirlwind few months since Fenella was published!!  Trying to keep up with all the good stuff that has been happening has been a fun ride and we are happy that we get to share it with you, Fellow Fairy Lover! 

So, let’s see.  Well, ‘Fenella, A Fable of a Fairy Afraid to Fly’ was published in October 2010 and I think I held my first book around Oct 5th, give or take a few days.  Was it a rush?  Oh yes!  Years of dreaming and working went into this one little book.  I hope you like it as much as we do! :)

So far, lots of people seem to like it, including grannies and grown ups in general, so I guess it’s not just for kids after all, though I am hearing back from lots of kids who really love it – yea!  One little girl says Fenella taught her to swim, and another has to have it read every night before bed.  Actually, I am hearing that quite a lot! 

What is really neat is people are liking it for the coffeetable, too, because it is such a beautiful book (thanks to my illustrator Ditte (pronounced DeeDee) and Jessica Kinkel, the interior book designer!).  What is even neater is that we are hearing from parents and people who work with kids who are struggling with issues like ADD or their parents’ divorce, feeling different or apart from the rest, and they say Fenella really helps them.  Now that really makes our day, I know Fenella feels the same, though she probably knew it already. 

Anyhow, I think that is all for now.  Thank you for stopping by, and don’t forget to tell us about your fairy experiences at the Fairy Sightings Forum and check out where in the world you can find Fenella! 

Fairy Blessings!!

Susannah Cord and Fenella
