In my previous post, I mentioned there was a campaign coming up. Y’all probably spent the day wondering what that campaign might entail. Well, here you go:

The profits of all my books sold in 2026 will be donated in support of Ukraine. 

There you have it! Now go buy them books!

We’ll start with some old-fashioned Q and A:

• Q: Nice! What books do you have?
  A: I got these books.
• Q: What books does this campaign cover?
  A: That would be all the books written by me that are currently for sale online or are bought directly from me. You can read more about my books here.
• Q: But where can I buy these books?
  A: You can buy them here:
  Brave new Books
  Amazon & Kindle
  BOL
  There are probably many more resellers, as many of the sites mentioned above do forward or share their stock with other sites.
  Alternatively, you can buy a book directly from me. Here in Sweden, or in Spain when I’m there. Just DM me, and we’ll make it happen.
• Q: But amazon, weren’t you blocking them?
  A: Yes, indeed, I was, and I still am. Good of you to have remembered that!
  But in this specific case, the profit goes to Ukraine, and I have no problems deploying amazon if it helps Ukraine, nor should you! Just so you know, I never buy anything from amazon, never did, never will. But in this case, since it helps Ukraine, I’ll republish my books there for this campaign.
• Q: Republish?
  A: Yes, as you may recall, I took down all of my books from amazon on the day after the inauguration of this trump guy. But I can easily put them back online to pick up sales again – this time with all of the profits in support of Ukraine!
• Q: So that would be all your books, right?
  A: Almost. The profit of any of my books that are sold on any of the aforementioned platforms or directly by me will be donated in full to the Help99 organisation that supports military and civilians in Ukraine. The exemption is for books that are not currently sold on these platforms – all of my books – but one – are there.
• Q: Just checked your books on amazon. Why’s the paperback version of the Ukraine book so much more expensive than the other books?
  A: That book was written with the sole purpose of sending profits to Ukraine. As such, I settled for a higher price than can be expected for a book this size.
• Q: How about your e-books. are they included in the campaign?
  A: Of course! When I say all books, then I mean all books.
• Q: I cannot see your book on amazon!
  A: No worries, I just republished them (2026-01-11), and it takes time for amazon to approve them, sometimes up to 72 hours. Please try again tomorrow.

So, how much is that profit for each sold book?

I’ve reviewed the profit each book makes when sold on amazon in another post. In general, you can say that almost a third of each book will be my profit. And that’s the part that will be donated to help99 and Ukraine. Some resellers provide a this profit, eg, Brave New Books and Amazon, others give me a profit of cents on the dollar, eg, BOL.com.

Now, if you buy directly from me, then the profit is maximized. The Ukraine books cost me between €2 and €4 per copy, depending on size; everything exceeding the cost is profit. Mind you, depending on where you are, I may have to ship it to you, which I’ll gladly do at cost. Or you pick it up at my home. If you’re living not too far away in Sweden, perhaps I could be persuaded to deliver it. In that case, delivery is free!

Finally:

I’d appreciate hearing from you if you bought any of my books, and even more if you let me know if you liked that book. Feel free to send me your review so that I can publish it on the page of the book you read. You can contact me via the link at the bottom of this page.

Slava Ukraini!
Слава Україні!

And remember:

Crimea is Ukraine!
