Novel cover reveal
Nan is surprised to find she hasn't mentioned her novel much on her blog, though she's been working on it almost a decade. Ready or not, it's coming out soon, and we need to get caught up here. Let's start with the cover reveal for “The Clerk and the Ink Drinker in the Outer Lands Mission” by N. G. Swett. November 2025
“The Clerk and the Ink Drinker in the Outer Lands Mission” by N.G. Swett
It surprises me to find that I haven't said much here on this blog about my biggest, longest running project: my novel! I've been working quietly on it for nearly a decade. It's coming out now, ready or not.
Let's begin with the cover reveal! That's what authors do, right?! See front and back covers below, followed by a short cover reveal video.
Thank you to friends and family who helped with the cover design, it made a HUGE difference.

Writer Invited to Earth Day Farmers Market To Sign New Climate Book
Grow Your Personal Climate Score with "100 Heroic Challenges for Saving the Planet (And Money Too)"
Long Island, New York -- "I'm starting to think we might actually have to save the planet in real life," says year round Long Island resident Nan Swett. Her new book, 100 HEROIC CHALLENGES FOR SAVING THE PLANET (And Money Too), is for anyone who wants to challenge themselves and others to take climate action, form better environmental habits, and join the race for net zero.
What's My “Personal Climate Score?”
"I asked myself, 'Self, what can I do as one person do to fight climate change?' Boy, there's a lot more I can do," said Swett. "I'm not going to lie. If I were to give myself a climate score from 1 to 100 based on the challenges in my book, there would be room for improvement for sure."
Visiting the Farmers Market on Earth Day Checks Off Multiple Climate Challenge Boxes
The public is invited to celebrate Earth Day (Challenge #31) by stopping by the Riverhead Farmers Market at the East End Food Hub in Riverhead, NY on April 22nd from 9am to 2pm. Swett will sign copies of her new book and demonstrate how to turn garments into planet billboards using fabric pens (Challenge #1). Check off more climate challenges by buying local, supporting green businesses, sharing your love of the planet with friends and family, and more.
"I'm grateful to the East End Food Hub for the good work it's doing and for inviting me to participate in this special Earth Day farmers market," said Swett.
Every Day Is Earth Day
The compact workbook-style paperback makes a great Earth Day gift or favor, and it's full of activities for every day, family homes, the office, a group or team of friends, schools, environmental organizations, school break, summer activities, and communities. It's portable, interactive, easy to understand, and culled from leading global environmental organizations and contemporary cultural sources.
