Project Update: Surveys sent, proof copies ordered!
Hi everyone!
You might have seen it already, but I sent fulfillment surveys out the other day! Completing surveys is necessary to get your campaign rewards. If you have any questions or need assistance, please let me know. Collecting this info, including what name you'd like listed in the acknowledgements section (not being in there is always an option if you'd prefer) is one of the last steps needed to get your books to you. A lot of you have already filled out your surveys (thank you!) and I'm hoping to lock surveys and charge for shipping in a couple weeks. You will receive an email before surveys lock in case you need to change any of your responses.
One of those other final steps is making sure the proof copies for both the standard and large print paperback are formatted correctly. Those are on their way to me as we speak! Assuming the proofs look good, it'll be quick work to add the acknowledgements section in once I have that info.
My goal is to send out ebooks and bulk order paperbacks by the end of this month. Once I have those paperbacks in hand, getting them shipped out to y'all will be my top priority.
And now for some other news.
As you might remember, this campaign was part of 2025's Book Bazaar. I'm incredibly pleased to announce that I will be participating in 2026's Book Bazaar as well! We'll have a mix of returning authors from last year and new people. The teaser page for my new book will be up soon. Plus I'll be sending out an email about this project that also includes details about my publishing plans for the near-ish future.
This year's Bazaar runs from the end of October until midway through November. Even if something happens to the anticipated timeline, Honeycomb Heart fulfillment will be complete before this new project's campaign runs. The novel I'll be crowdfunding will also be closer to completion at the time of funding than Honeycomb Heart was, so there should be less, uh, "wiggle room" in the expected vs actual fulfillment timeline for that project. This is my goal going forward with all my future campaigns.
As always, thanks for your patience and I hope you're doing well!
