But how fast do they think I puzzle?!? With a cat who’ll get into everything I try to do?!?!) And then I decided to share the list with you, because why not? If I can figure out how to do it (never a guarantee), this list will be posted online through my Substack but not emailed out to anyone because I’m terrified of becoming like Blue Kazoo who texts me about puzzles twice a week when I bought one puzzle from them a year ago. Or, actually, I often forget - so then they’re a nice little surprise.Īnyway, I kept seeing all these amazing preorder graphics flying around yesterday, and so many people were doing the Work of reposting them all to their Instagram stories and whatnot, so I decided to just start typing up a list for myself so I could remember some of the books I have on my radar. Then I make myself a customized little “BOTM,” where I order some books staggered throughout the year as a little regular treat to look forward to. This is my tech, but - I usually get B&N gift cards from my boss for Christmas, and I love to save them up knowing full well that preorder sale is coming in January. So if you do happen to preorder, save your receipt! (And if you DO preorder from B&N, peep that Exclusive Edition with a pink cover and Paramore essay included!!!!) You also want to save your receipts because sometimes authors will offer little preorder incentives! For example, I’m going to open up a Google form in a couple months where you can upload any receipt for preordering With Love, from Cold World from any retailer, and I’ll mail you out an art print, postcard, and stickers. Generally, you’re not charged for the book until it ships - so the good news is that you won’t be hit with the whole charge at once, but I def recommend you keep track of what you’ve preordered somewhere so you’re not surprised by the charges when they come! Ask me how I know! They’re a way to signal interest in a book to the publisher/booksellers, which can result in higher print runs, more promotion, better shelf placement, and on and on.

You’ve heard this by now, but they’re super important to authors.
