Wick'd Reads

Join in on the growing trend of book promotions using unique wax illustrations.  It's fun and an awesome way to reach your fans and potential fans with something new and designed just for your book.

NEW: WICK'D POTIONS ~  AUTHOR SIGNATURE PERFUMES.  CONTACT CANDLE ARTIST JFAY DIRECTLY FOR DETAILS

Here's how it works:

1.  Contact Candle Artist Jfay and discuss the design ideas for your candle.  Please forward to Jfay a picture of your bookcover, a book blurb, description of your book, or any other information that could be helpful in the design process.

2.  Here is a listing of candle prices per size.  Additional fees will apply if a cut-out is needed in order to make your design, (which would be the cost to order the cutout plus shipping), or if there is great amount of detail or artwork involved. 

3X4 pillar - $15.00 - $19.00 ea                                                  

3X6 pillar - $17.00 - $25.00 ea

4X4 pillar - $18.50 - $25.50 ea

3X8 pillar - $20.00 - $30.00 ea

3X9 pillar - $25.00 - $35.00 ea

4X12 pillar - $45.00 - $65.00 ea

Every candle is handmade and highly scented with the scent of your choice from the Studio 3B Scent List.  If you are wanting a scent that is not listed, we can see if our supplier carries that scent - extra fees may apply.  Jfay also works with authors to design signature scents that are fastly becoming yet another avenue of promotion.

3.  You of course may purchase as many candles as you need to take with you to signings, conventions, etc.  If you are running an online campaign, you can purchase the candle (+shipping fees) and send us the winner's name and shipping info and the candle will be sent directly to your winner.

4.  Scent chips in the same scent as your candle are also great (and inexpensive) giveaway items for signings and conventions.  They can be bagged with your business card attached.  Contact Jfay for rates for different sized bags of scented wax chips.

5.  If you would like to have your book and candle promoted here on  Wick'd Reads, the fee is $50.00, which includes the following:

a) Photographing your candle for online promotions.

b) Individual page built for your book and candle here on the Wick'd Reads website, with links to your book purchase page, your website, blog sites, etc.

c) A Bio Page set up for you with a link from the Wick'd Authors Page.

d) Book/Candle promos are also advertised on Twitter, Facebook, Myspace, as well as Jfay's various blogs.

6.  You may send us promotional material such has business cards, postcards, bookmarks, pens, etc. to be enclosed with your candle when purchased by a customer.

7. You may also offer your candle for sale to your fans directly from your page.  You can post the candle on your site and we will send you the html coding for a paypal Buy Now button.  The candle price will be increased by $2.00 from our regular price so that you can earn commission from each candle sold. Commission to be paid on or before the 10th of the month ~ or can be accrued and used to purchase merchandise.

We've been asked about discounts for large orders ~ Orders of 20+ candles will receive a 10% discount.

Note From Jfay:   Please keep in mind that I specialize in creating "artistic" candles,  I am not a printer that can duplicate your logo.  I can attempt to create an artistic version of the look of your logo.  All designs are made of wax and I do some handpainted accents, but if you are wanting a printed advertisement, you may need to look elsewhere.

I look forward to working with all of you very talented authors to create a unique candle that embodies the spirit and mood of your work!  If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask!   Jfay ~ candleartistjfay@comcast.net

WILLIAM MALTESE

comments on his new novel

SUCKS! THE FIRST DRAQUAL VAMPYRE CHRONICLES

and its

Jfay candles connection:

 “There are candles. Then, there are candles. And, only then … are there Jfay candles.

 “It was inconceivable to me, from the get-go, that Draqual vampires would be any less inclined — than I would ever be — to use anything but the very best, especially in their selection of something as vital to ritual as candles — especially since Draqual vampires are so knowledgeable of the finer things in life.

“As is Vlad Draqual …As is his appreciative audience … I, personally, am always amazed and pleased by the wondrousness of Jfay’s artistic workmanship in the medium of wax.

 Whether for setting a mood, for conducting a romance, for achieving a purely dramatic effect, or for the successful casting of spells, the very best is needed to achieve the very best.

 “Candles don’t get any better than those by Jfay. Take my word for it. Take the word of the vampires Draqual.”
