Most of my books are written so that they can be read as stand-alone stories, even if they are in a series. If you'd like to read in order, you can find a list here.

Of course! I read almost every night and love a lot of different genres. You can find a list of Books I Love here.

It depends which country you're in, and which shipping option you choose at checkout. It won't be 'next day shipping' though! 

As an independent author working with an independent printer, I can't go as fast as the big online stores, but the quality of the books is excellent, and you're supporting a stronger creative eco-system.

Each book is printed individually and sent to you from the independent printer I use here in the UK (although they are also partnering with a US printer from summer 2023.)

It can take 10-15 working days to reach you outside the UK. Thank you for your patience!

I love to offer signed books. Please contact me with the book/s you would like, your mailing address, and the date you'd like it by, and I will get back to you with options. Thank you!

Great question!

There is no way I can compete with the big online stores, so basically, you are supporting me as an independent author, and also my independent printer, which is much appreciated! 

The books are excellent quality and I often sell special formats and bundles here, as well as merchandise, that I don't sell elsewhere, so you can get exclusive deals and better pricing here.

If you buy direct, we get paid within hours or days, rather than months — which helps us create more books. Thank you!

We can also email you to tell you about other books you might enjoy.

While authors love the big stores and you can find our books there too, it's becoming pretty crowded on those sales pages! Our direct stores allow us to feature our products without having other products advertised against them. 

You can buy my books pretty much everywhere in most formats — ebook, audiobook, paperback, and sometimes in Large Print and hardback editions.

Just search for J.F. Penn and the book title on the store you prefer to shop at. You can also find links to other stores on each book page.

Yes, you should be able to order my books in-store as they are included in the catalogues that bookstores order from. Just ask in the bookstore, or Contact Me if there's an issue.

Yes, you should be able to borrow my books from the library as they are included in the catalogues that libraries order from. Just ask the Librarian, or Contact Me if there's an issue.

It's important to me that you are happy with your order. If you have a problem or an issue, please contact me and I will get it sorted.

It's fantastic that you're writing. It's certainly been a life-changing journey for me.

I have lots of information and inspiration for writers/authors at my other website, www.TheCreativePenn.com, so please go check that out for more details. Or if you prefer audio, you can find my show, The Creative Penn Podcast, on your favourite podcast app.
