Accessiblity improvements

COMING SOON
Picture
The planned release of the new expanded version of 'Olverston Grange ...and Other Stories' is slightly delayed due to work on the accessibility of the title.

Following the addition of a screen reader to Esskaye Books' tools we have identified some design features of the book that may stop visually-impaired people being able to fully enjoy the book when reading it as an eBook.

Once the problem is corrected, the release will go ahead and the previous release, 'Scare Me' will be assessed and an updated version released (if needed).

Then production of third book will begin...

ESSKAYE BOOKS IS IN ITS NEW ABODE!

15/12/2020

2020 has been, as for the majority of people hard for Esskaye Books. I am the owner, editor, and general dogsbody for the press. I also have Multiple Sclerosis and the medication I take for the condition destroys around 80 percent of my immune system. Couple that with a global pandemic and I was suddenly in a very bad place.
I have needed therapy, and  an increase in my antidepressants. My depression also made my departure from the work force necessary, and I left the best job I have ever had in my 47 years on this planet.
But there have also been positives this year...
I have finally moved in with my fiancée and am one step closer to getting a wedding ring on her finger. 
Esskaye Books has somehow managed to survive my lack of input for most of the year and this has been helped by the business moving to new premises.
I met (via email) some brilliant authors who I got to publish within the pages of 'Scare Me' and hope to continue the working partnership into the future.

The next publication from Esskaye Books is hopefully going to drop before the end of this year and 2021 will be awesome!
