Why?
Well, you see, when I published it, some grammar issues snuck past me.
And some friends caught them, put them down on paper and sent them to me.
Also, while writing Do You Take This Quest? I've been exploring Bookanian culture and, more importantly, how they view God. This was important enough to me, that I decided that it needed reference in Sew. There were two scenes, both closer to the end, that presented themselves, so I added them in.
Also, I changed the cover art for the kindle version this summer.
So, I'm updating it.
The Kindle Version should be updated within twenty-four hours. CreateSpace, however, takes longer than KDP for updating, and updating means taking it off of the market for a while. That's why the Paperback will be unavailable.

In Bookania, God is called the Author. This is drawn from Hebrews 12:2 where Jesus is called the Author and finisher of our faith.
Unfortunately, after the Change, the royalty was so bitter about it that they turned their backs on the Author. A few stray kings and queens, and a lord or lady or two clung to faith, as did pretty much all of the common people, but for the majority of the nobility, it became an empty show they put on only to please the common people.
If you have already read Sew, It's a Quest, you may not want to bother hunting down the new scenes. I'll list them below, just highlight the white area. They're both close to then end, so I don't want them easily readable by people who haven't read the book yet, as the second, especially, contains spoilers.
“Thank-you,” said Agatha, with grateful smile.
“You’re welcome, dear.” Then, as she turned to go,
he added, “May the Author be with you.”
She turned back to him with a smile, “And may He
be with you.”

Fallona gave him a kindly, grandmotherly smile.
“Robert, the Author does nothing without a purpose.”
Robert looked up. “The Author exists?”
“Yes,” said Fallona, “Despite the fact that many
have tried to forget. We are His messengers. We do his instruction. And His
plans are never without purpose. Now, return to the others, and find Rosamond
as soon as you can.”
Robert sighed, and went back to the room.
