Project Update: Updates: Activities Notebook and Give Away Books.
Greetings Backers!
I must start with an apology that this update is late. I am still scrambling to catch up on all of the things that got neglected during February. At the same time I am attempting to rest and recover from being overworked in February. As you might imagine the efforts to catch up and the efforts to rest are in direct conflict so I'm kind of failing at both of them. My current plan is to muddle my way forward switching between the two and not taking on any new efforts until I finally reach a place of being recovered.
TL;DR: Not nearly enough progress has happened on SLSC work, but this is one of the efforts I'm returning to now. Activities Notebook is in final stages of layout editing. I hope to start mailing it out by the end of March. I've created a Give Away books form and will soon be publicizing it. Your next update will be the week of March 30 - April 3.

Details
I was feeling like I've been too busy and wouldn't have much to report, but actually I did make small amounts of progress and I have plans for all the rest. The work I have immediately ahead of me is this:
1. Activities Notebook: I finished 1st pass layout! Now I just need to print it out and do a paper edit looking for errors to fix. Then I'll be able to send it off for a test print. I plan to have these ordered in the next couple of weeks. My hope is to be shipping packages containing these by the end of March.
2. Giveaway Books: I have created a Give Away Book Form that you all can share with anyone who can't afford a book, but who you feel would benefit from having a copy. I have 70 pre-paid copies to give away thanks to many of you! In the next week or so I will start making noise and advertising the form link on Social Media.
3. Wider availability: I need to make the eBook and audiobook available on bookselling platforms like Amazon and Ingram. Then I need to adjust layout for a Print on Demand version for those platforms which will make physical copies easier to access outside the United States.
