How do I Get Your Books?

This isn’t intended to be a listing of ALL places where my books

The Boy from Willow Bend
Dancing Nude in the Moonlight/Dancing Nude in the Moonlight 10th Anniversary Edition and Other Writings (out of print)
Oh Gad! (out of print)
Lost! A Caribbean Sea Adventure
Perdida! Una Aventura en el Mar Caribe
Musical Youth
With Grace
The Jungle Outside

are (or have been) available. I’d like to think that’s impossible because they’re in more places than I’ll ever know (a girl can dream). BUT. Given the challenge of getting books on to retail bookshelves, even or especially in the Caribbean as a Caribbean writer, and in response to the repeated question – where can I get your book, I thought it prudent to provide a listing of some of the places I’m aware of (that my publishers have informed me have or are carrying my books) so that if you happen to be in that country (emphasis on Caribbean country), you’ll know where to go.

To be clear, all of my books are also available internationally (e.g. at A Different Booklist in Canada)- so ask for them at your local bookstore and, if they don’t currently stock them, encourage them to do so, or order them online (ideally at indie sites like the African American Literature Book Club, ireadify, and indiebound – a community of independent online bookstores, though they’re at various online retailers, the Anansesem online bookstore to bookshop.org, Amazon) in format of your choice. Most are available as physical copies and ebooks, and at least one Lost! A Caribbean Sea Adventure, is also an audio book. For bookstores that would like to order, see the Books page for publisher links and book breakdowns.

If you’re on this list and shouldn’t be, you still can be.
If you’re not on this list and want to be, you know what to do.
If you’re reading this and are a book lover, anywhere in the world, please do encourage your local book store/s to carry my books.
