I am selling each copy of The Lit Torch at the cost of printing, fulfillment, and shipping, and not a penny more.

Why am I doing this?

Not because I've suddenly become terrible at business.

I have two reasons that are close to my heart.

First, I spent nearly three decades watching something slowly fade from family life: the simple power of a story shared aloud.

The way children lean forward when imagination is invited.

The quiet conversations that grow when a family gathers around a book instead of a screen.

A parent reading from the couch... a child leaning closer... the room going still as the story pulls everyone in.

I've experimented, failed, adjusted, and refined ways to encourage families to turn reading into something far more powerful than a school assignment.

Something closer to an adventure.

The Lit Torch is the result of that search.

I wrote this book because I don't want families to spend years trying to rediscover what reading together can become...because then it may be too late.

I've already done the exploring.

I've walked the path.

I've gathered what works.

Inside this book is a simple, practical, and proven path that can transform ordinary reading into a shared journey.

And once you see what happens when a story truly catches fire in a home...

you realize how powerful that small flame can be.

So my goal is simple:

Place this torch into as many homes as possible...

because every great adventure begins when one small flame is carried forward.

The second reason I'm selling this book at cost is just as important.

When families begin reading this way, something interesting tends to happen.

They start looking for more.

More stories.

More adventures.

More ways to keep that flame alive.

And when that moment comes, I'll be right here to share what comes next.

That's all.

I believe stories can still light the way for families.

And I would be honored to place the torch in your family's hands.
