Shipping and paperback sales

Due to some crossed wires between our Book Market software and the U.S.P.S. shipping calculator, shipping costs were often calculated to be dramatically higher than they should be for our larger paperbacks or orders with multiple books. As a result, LT3 has changed how we calculate shipping to more accurately reflect actual shipping costs.

• Small orders (typically 2 thick books or a combination of 3-5 thin books) are charged a flat $5.00 shipping.
• Large orders (typically more than 2 thick books) are charged a flat $10.50 shipping.
• Orders for over $40.00 in product (typically large orders) are shipped for free!

As a result of these changes, Less Than Three Press is extending our paperbook sale through Labor Day (September 5 at midnight). All paperbacks are 15% off between now and the end of the day Monday, September 5. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us.

Note: Contacting the Editor-in-Chief

Less Than Three Press's Editor-in-Chief and CFO Samantha Derr is currently without power due to the damage caused by Hurricane Irene. If you have questions or are waiting for or expecting something from her, rest assured she will get back to you as soon as possible. The current estimate is that her power will be restored by Friday. If you need a question answered immediately, please email admin@lessthanthreepress.com and another staff member will get back to you as soon as possible.

Teric is a cat shifter, too shy to ever admit the growing crush he has on his roommate and best friend, Edric—and too petrified to ever admit to his feelings for the haughty elf Akeid. Then Akeid asks him out, and begins to return his feelings with interest. Edric has had a crush on Teric for ages, but has never known how to approach his best friend and say it. So he distracts himself at the clubs, hoping someone will be distracting enough. Then Akeid slips in and steals Teric away, and Edric wants badly to strangle the condescending, untrustworthy, far too beautiful elf. Humans and mongrel cats are beneath him, but a bet is a bet, and Akeid means to win it. Until he loses sight of the bet, all his attention on the pretty cat slipping beneath his skin—and the hissing, spitting, jealous human dogging his every step. Note: This story features a threesome.
