BLUF; TLDR: ERewards will be available 22 November. Locking addresses after we decide on when ya'll want your rewards. Will either be 22 November OR 15 December. Majority rules, no take backsies! Proof copy and pins are in so I posted a video unboxing the proof copy of Blood Ties and the vampire teeth pins on Instagram. Pics to follow soon.

Hey, hey, Bloodlings!

I can't believe we made it here! It's almost time to lock addresses and begin shipping rewards because the only thing left is to go through the proof copy of Blood Ties, send out eRewards, and order the physical copies of all the books!

I know you all have been waiting patiently to see what it looks like and photos just can't do it justice (though I will post those soon). If you're curious, I posted a video unboxing the proof copy of Blood Ties and the vampire teeth pins on Instagram. You can check that out at:

As for the eBook and other eRewards, I'll be sending those out on 22 November, after I've read through the proof copy and can be sure you're getting the best version of the book possible. I was on vacation, so I'm a bit behind on that. But, don't worry, I didn't forget. You'll be able to read Blood Ties soon!

In the meantime, could ya'll help me with a dilemma? 

I want to get everything to you by the holidays, which means sending in the revised manuscript of the book by 22 November. I'm confident I can get this done, but it means you won't have the cover for my second full-length novel in the back of Blood Ties. 

OR 

I could ship out rewards closer to January so ya'll receive everything by February, the original date this project was due. 

Keep in mind that I have Apollycon in April, and Blood Ties will be available for purchase before the convention. In other words, the later you receive your rewards, the less time you have to enjoy it before its official release on 1 April 2025.

Let me know your thoughts in the poll. You have until 1:00 AM on 21 November to think about it since the ordering date is so close.

And, yeah, that's it!

XOXO
