Project Update: It's over!!!
Hey everybody, N here! So ... it's over.
I never in a million years would have expected the response we got. The fact that 54 friggen awesome amazing people wanted to read our second book (and a lot of you wanted both!!) is ... incomprehensible to me. So thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for taking the chance on us and supporting us, and I truly hope you find your next favorite book here.
So what happens now?
The pre-order store is up. Payments should be slowly processing. I'm still trying to figure out a timeline for the surveys and stuff like that but I'll update when I know more. (Shouldn't be more than a couple weeks, realistically)
I can give you updates on fulfillment right now, though! The new-and-improved version of Everdark has a proof shipped that will probably show up today. The Fractured Balance needs some final tweaks to its cover, and some behind-the-curtain nitty-gritty publishing stuff still needs to be completed. I will probably have a proof of it in my hot little hand as early as the week after next! I'll make sure to share pictures when I have them!
The two things that will probably take the longest are the metal bookmarks and the hardcovers. So for those of you who wanted those, I ask your patience. If you wanted just a paperback or an ebook, fulfillment should happen quickly; I'm going to say, right now, late Oct, early Nov for the paperbacks and sooner for the ebooks.
But as with anything, I'll keep you all updated.
Finally; today is my partner A's birthday (the "A" in "N.A. Soleil") and the best present you could give them would be to take a gander at our pre-order store or share the word. Pheonix is their character; though I solely put the words-to-word-processor and helped them flesh everything out, a large part of The Fractured Balance is their story. Though their severe mental illness keeps them from interacting, I tell them everything, and they would be so happy to know that people like Pheonix and want to read his story.
I'll also have a really exciting announcement to make pretty soon, so stay tuned for that!
