over 1 year ago – Fri, Nov 11, 2022 at 03:23:52 AM

HI! 

I realized I didn't tell you the books were ordered. I've been in Houston this past week and I'll be at 20books in Vegas next week, but I'm hoping to fulfill this campaign when I get home. 

There are 36 people who haven't filled out there surveys yet. If you are having trouble, you can go to this link and get your survey. 

https://annanovel.backerkit.com/

Please note, you need to use your Kickstarter email, not your personal one if they are different. I'm so excited to share Anna with you :)

Problem with bookfunnel download?
over 1 year ago – Fri, Nov 04, 2022 at 11:34:15 PM

Hi! 

I heard from a couple of you that there were issues with the Anna and the Dark Place audiobook from Bookfunnel. 

The problem seems to be resolved now, but just in case I added the file to Backerkit so you can just download it there if you choose to do so. 

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thank you!!!!

Woooow!!! 

I started this year estimating this book could raise $5k when it launched, but to see it happen...wow. All I can say is wow. 

This is my singularly favorite book I've ever written, and I'm so happy to share it with you. Every time I launch a book, I am humbled by every single one of you that backs it. It's incredible to think that the weird thing that my brain comes up with is magical to me every single time. 

So, what happens now? 

Now, people who pledged $50+ have until Tuesday night to get their names to me for inclusion in the special thanks page. After that, I will upload the book to Ingram and to Backerkit. 

Then, I'll submit for approval to Backerkit. When the approvals come in, I'll place the order for the hardcovers and release Backerkit surveys. 

I'll be at RAM until nest Tuesday, so I'm hoping to release everything by Wednesday. Then, I go to Vegas for 20books on the 12th for a week. I'm hoping when I get back on the 19th I will have the books in hand and can ship them the week of Thanksgiving. Hardcovers always take longer than softcovers, so I'm not sure if I'll have them by then, which is why I put December for the delivery date. 

November is a busy month for me, but I'm hoping to have cool books to send you by the end of it. 

Thank you again.
