Preorder "Refilling The Well" starting today!
Preorders for my debut poetry chapbook, “Refilling The Well,” are NOW AVAILABLE!
I’m happy to share that preorders for “Refilling The Well,” my debut poetry chapbook, are now available!
“Wait, what!? Claris, I thought you said that “Refilling The Well” wouldn’t be ready for preorder until February 1st! Why are the preorder links available early!?
When you submit a book to be published for preorder or to be published in general on Amazon and Draft2Digital, it can take up to 72 hours (3 days) for all of the preorder links to load properly. I’d rather have my books be available for preorder slightly earlier than planned vs. late because of this.
Also, since all of you reading this are subscribed to my newsletter, I figured I might as well share the news with you early!
I wrote “Refilling The Well” after going through a period of creative burnout in Summer 2023. It was a hard time to get through - because I kept comparing myself with other writers and creatives out there who seemed to be reaching a certain level of “success” with their work that I didn’t have. Fortunately, I did get past this period of time (or else I wouldn’t be able to write many books right now), but it taught me a lot about redefining my own version of success, and made me reflect on what writing and being creative really means to me. I hope that sharing this chapbook will help inspire others to take care of themselves, creatively or otherwise.
“Refilling The Well” will be available in both ebook and paperback versions on its release day. Paperback copies are exclusively available on Amazon, while ebooks are available on all e-retailers.
I also want to let you all know that paperback copies will not be available to purchase until the release day (a.k.a. you can’t preorder paperbacks). According to Amazon guidelines, my paperback book's detail page will become visible to readers to purchase my book on Amazon at 12:00 a.m. UTC on the release day (February 10th). So if you're looking to order the paperback version of "Refilling The Well," I appreciate all your patience for February 10th when it'll be available!
If you know anyone who's interested in reading a new poetry chapbook, especially one covering the themes of hustle culture, burnout, burnout recovery and self-care, this chapbook is for them!
Thank you to everyone who preordered a copy of “Refilling The Well!” I deeply appreciate it. Happy reading! I appreciate all of your support.
Thank you for following my writing journey!
I hope you look forward to seeing more of my writing process and work. I also look forward to giving all of you more frequent updates as well, so stay tuned for more!
