Introducing Lavender Letters

from Author Elizabeth Bourgeret

Lavender Letters with Elizabeth Bourgeret logo
Welcome to a brand new series created by Elizabeth Bourgeret, offering you a whole new experience in reading... 
I don't need to read a thing!  I'm Ready!

How long does it take to read a book?
One day? Three?  Maybe a few months if your schedule is cramped.  
And how long before the storyline and the characters are tossed to side to make way for another book?
And how long after that does the memory of that first story begin to fade away. Even if you tell yourself, it was SO GOOD and such GREAT characters that you promise to read it again...  even though, we know... in the back of our minds there are so many NEW books that we want to read that it's unlikely we'd be able to pick up one of our favorites to read again.  But we love it and so it sits patiently on our shelves hoping to get noticed again. 
What if... there was a way to prolong the story experience?
What if... there was a way to get even deeper inside the story.  Know the characters in a deeply intimate way?  What if... you could be privy to their own thoughts.
What if... a story unfolded before your very eyes...
I believe I've found a new way to enjoy the stories you love.  The characters you can't wait to know and those you'd love to hate... 
What if... your story was delivered to you in the form of letters, from the actual characters every other week.  Your story would piece together while you give yourself time to immerse yourself in the experience every time a new beautiful envelope arrives in your mailbox revealing another chapter. 
Oh... and so much more than words on a page.  
These words are from the character's own thoughts giving you secret access to their journals and letters as they move about within the story.  See how they face their trials and triumphs, be the first to know when they feel the flutterings of the heart, or the fear deep in their gut.
Allow yourself to unplug from the glaring screens of today and immerse yourself in a bygone era where people communicated through letter writing.  These days we spend so much time in front of our computer screens and phones, it's become foreign for our hands to use a pen or tap into our own imaginations.  Everything, images and all, is spoon-fed to us through the screen.
Maybe you didn't recognize what that longing was that you knew you were missing, but just couldn't put your finger on it.  A craving for creativity.  For tangible and tactile interaction.   Being a part of the Lavender Letters Series can be one of the best ways to reboot and ignite your imagination. 
The letters themselves are beautiful.  They are colorful and yet encourage you to sit back and relax as you immerse yourself in the experience.  Feel the pages in your hands as the story literally unfolds.  Get a glimpse of what was happening during the time frame of the story.  See maps and documents that bring you in as if you were looking over someone's shoulder.
What if... you could relax with a cup of tea, or coffee or hot chocolate and take time out of your busy life and turn back time, just for a little while... to read, the latest letter from our first series: Rosie's Story; found in the Lavender Letters. 

What are Lavender Letters?

Lavender Letters is a historical fiction story, broken down into letters mailed to your personal mailbox every other week for twelve months.  Within that time, each set of letters draws you into the story with interactive and intimate details of the letter's author in the form of correspondence or diary entries.
Two envelopes per month mailed out on the second and fourth weeks.  Each beautiful, colorful envelope will contain the next chapter of the story (in letter or journal form) but may also contain a few extras to help enhance your experience.  Sometimes telegrams, secret notes, recipes, newspaper clipping and maps may sneak into the envelope as well.

Each series is centered around a specific character and the journey they find themself on either on purpose, or by elements outside their control.
A beautifully immersive story, told in a perfectly "new" old way.  One letter at a time.

Our First Story:

Meet Rosie-

Lavender Letters with Elizabeth Bourgeret, Rosies Story
She is the very first heroine in our brand new Westward Bound series.
You'll fall in love with this spunky young girl that decides to take her life's choices into her own hands rather than what her father has chosen for her. 
Everyone is talking about heading West, maybe that's the direction she should be looking to escape the future that awaits her in her small rural town.
Soon she realizes, she doesn't have a moment to lose... it's now or never... she confides in her brother through letters of her plans... knowing full well that he won't be able to respond in time to tell her it's a fool-hardy idea.

The Westward Bound Series will all be based around the middle 1800s when westward migration was at its peak!  Each story, one new story per year, focuses on a new heroine and her adventures of this exciting, history-making era!
​As of right now, only Rosie's Story is available- but fear not, Addison's Story arrives in February of 2024!

So much more than a book...

In addition to the correspondence of the characters, you will also receive personal notes from me, hand written with a message from wherever I am traveling at the moment.  And, I'll be sure to send you some extra postcards so you can pass along the joy of happy mail to others.
Who doesn't love happy mail?
I believe we have reached the point in our technology-driven age where we realize it's good to get away from our screens of all shapes and sizes and revisit some of the old ways.  Reading and sending letters is extremely satisfying for the sender and the receiver.
The Lavender Letters is something to look forward to amidst the plain white envelopes filled with requests for money owed.  Soon you'll be anxiously awaiting your lavender-colored envelopes to break the monotony and signal that it's time for a break.  Time to close the door, silence you phone,  let your computer sleep and curl up with the next chapter of the story.  You'll be missing your penpals in-between letters, I promise. 
So much thought and care was put into creating this series, (much more than writing a book, I can promise you that!) It is so engaging you'll know who's personality you're reading by the color of the page and even the writing is different for each person. 
You will think you've stumbled across a long lost relative's hidden papers. 

​Click here for all the extra details!
But there's even more...
When you sign up to receive Lavender Letters, you've triggered a years worth of letters and journal entries and other gifts to look forward to.  You can start your twelve month journey at only four different times per year, when our subscription opens, and have fun opening up the gifts that come along the journey. 
But, since so many of you have said you think you'd miss having the actual book, you'll receive that too... at the end.  The book will be the same story but in a different perspective.  Where the letters are from the viewpoint of the character, the book tells you the overview of the entire story.
Lavender Letters is all about the experience.  I believe SO much that you'll love the slowed down and drawn out book-reading experience, I'm not even going to allow the books on the market to the public for at least five years. 
There are hundreds of thousands of wonderful books out there for you to read... there is only one Lavender Letters.  And only one story per year. 
There will be no bingeing! 
The Netflix mindset does not belong here!  Unplug... take your time... enjoy the letters. 

And so to complete your journey, when the story comes to a close, a completed book from an "overview" perspective will be delivered to you to put on your shelf, or read again... (as fast or as slow as you like!) 

What is included?

When you sign up to Lavender Letters it is a one year subscription to the most unique book reading adventure you've ever experienced.  Each story series is broken down into 24 beautifully crafted letters that are essentially the correspondence and journal entries of our characters in the story.  When read in order, they create an intricate plot line that you will treasure.  And not to be left out, there might also be a bonus of a few personal extras from me.  If you've ever been a part of anything I've created, (The PostCard Club, ELEVATE, etc) you know that I adore to spoil you with surprises.  Know that, included in your subscription are four additional gifts spread out throughout your 12 months.
Most importantly, Lavender Letters is an experience.  Not only will you receive a thrilling, riveting story from historical eras that you love filled with adventure, the unknown and perhaps a bit of romance, but also extra items to make it more historically accurate, such as newspaper clippings, recipes, telegrams, maps and more.
And don't forget an actual paperback copy of the story from a different perspective!  (All the secrets will be revealed!). This will be mailed out after your final letter is sent.

Who would love Lavender Letters?

Picture
This mailable book series would make a wonderfully unique gift for that someone in your life that enjoys historical fiction.  These books are set back in an era when the west was just opening up for expansion and the thrill of adventure or a new life was waiting on the other side of a small sacrifice. 
​
For those who love character-driven works of fiction.  You become very intimate with the characters of these stories as they reveal their inner-most longings, fears and desires.  Things they might not share with the rest of the world, or even the people sharing the same house.  You'll read about the consequences of the choices they've made and the person they've grown into because of them. 

Allow yourself to be transported to another place in another time where the world was so vast and the adventures were new.  Where regular people had the opportunity to be brave for no one but themselves.  In a time where time moved more slowly, unless winter was coming.  Where dangers were very real and life was not taken for granted. 
The Lavender Letters would make a wonderful gift and we are happy to accommodate! 
All you have to do is purchase the subscription and make sure we have the recipient's mailing information and we will send them a Gift Card letting them know what has been gifted and who it is from- OR you can download a gift card to wrap and put under the tree, tuck into a bouquet for your sweetheart; set beside the birthday cake or include it as part of Mother's Day brunch.   The possibilities are endless and what a unique gift to give!  That special someone will be sent the first envelope on the second week of the following month (unless other arrangements are made) and the gift keeps giving for a full twelve months! Your mom, friend,  loved one or favorite bookworm will think of you every single time they open another chapter.
Let Lavender Letters make gift-giving so easy!   Click here to get started!

My Promise to You

Accidents happen.  But I also want to make sure you receive every riveting piece of the story so if for any reason a letter doesn't show up, gets lost or stolen, or is destroyed along the way, just let me know and I will be happily to send out a new one as soon as possible at no additional cost.
Also, you are free to cancel the monthly subscription at any time.
If you have opted for the annual purchase plan, and you decide you don't need to know the end of the story, just let me know before your third letter is scheduled to be released, and I will refund your investment.  (I know I'm supposed to say "happily refund", but I really want you to get the whole experience and I'll be sad if you stop!)
This is a whole new level of storytelling and I am so excited to share it with you!  It is such a great experience for readers who love a great story told of yesteryear.  I have enjoyed creating this opportunity for you and look forward to creating a new series every year! I hope you'll join me in signing up for Lavender Letters- Rosie's Story.
Get started for as little as $13 per month!
