As of 9/8: The most recent order for all of the paperbacks and the second hardcover proof shipped on 9/6 (more quickly than I anticipated) and should be here in the coming week!
As of 8/27: I ordered all of the paperbacks, and one more hardcover proof since it needed a couple of fixes. That order should ship in about two weeks!
As of 8/26: I received the proofs! Scroll down for photos. :) The Mateo audiobook has been distributed and I have all of the swag and goodies except the metal bookmarks and character candles, which should be here within the next week or so.
As of 8/9/24: Ebooks have been distributed to Tiers 2 & 3. The entire digital witchy box in tier 3 was sent. The add-on of Luxe's Lullaby Trilogy was distributed. Some stretch rewards have been distributed, including: bonus ebook, bonus audiobooks (with the exception of Luxe in Quest), the CotSC cocktail recipe/video. The author read aloud of one chapter took place on Tiktok live.
Proofs of the hardcover and paperback have been ordered.
Proof Copies
The purpose of proofs is basically a test run. Based on how these turned out, I will make necessary fixes and adjustments.
