The problem
A book needs an address before it has a release. The page has to say what the book is and who it’s for, and give readers one way to hear when it’s ready, all in the time it takes to glance at a phone.
Our Trail Devotions is a Lovanium Press book, written by Eric.

What we built
- The promise, first. What the book is and who it’s for, said in one line.
- Art with a source. A public-domain engraving from Picturesque America (1872), credited on the page.
- A store that stays out of the way. Web editions with Stripe checkout, sign-in by emailed link, gifts, and a paperback code. No passwords to forget.
- Notes that follow the family. Names, notes and Trail Log entries are saved to the reader’s account and kept in step on every device, online or off.
