Writing contests and typos

Happy Thursday! Quick update email.

It is with great embarrassment and no small amount of shame I admit that my first print run ever of my book has a formatting error and one typo that do nothing to change the reading experience but make me feel very silly. It is fixed for the future, mind you, but it does make me have big silly feelings about imperfections. So, if you have a random( )space in chapter 3, you have a first edition copy. They’re almost done making the first round of books, to which I can then start fulfilling the lovely personal orders I have received.

I am also looking at submitting my book into a handful of contests, and have recently wrapped chapter 3 on my new rough draft.

I will keep you posted for release day and signing events, and thank you again to all my ARC readers! You make this all possible. Talk at you soon!
