Can you believe that What Feeds Below releases in October? I think because of the level of excitement around the book, it feels like release date is next week! I haven't had a lot of time to reflect on Bookcon because my day job has been so intense, but the response to What Feeds Below was incredible to see. We brought 50 arcs to give away. An hour before drop time there was over 100 people in line. I stayed around and handed out probably 100 bookmarks and 150-200 art cards. It was so incredible to see so many people excited for what I know is going to make a lot of people's top 10 lists!

We already have 300 ratings on Goodreads! I feel like that number is high for a book not coming out for several months (and no giveaways have been hosted YET (stay tuned). And the reviews have been overwhelmingly position (4.65 average!)

Last week Tatiana shared on Instagram her story about a Big 5 publisher rejecting What Feeds Below ON HER BIRTHDAY because they didn't know what to do with it.

Their loss (and the other publishers who rejected WFB) is definitely our gain!
And if there is one thing that I believe is that indie publishing, especially Bindery books, can rival the BIG 5 in reach and success and I would love to do everything in our power to help Tatiana hit a best seller list.

The immediate goal for us is to hit 1,000 preorders. I'm probably not supposed to tell you this, but I think it's important for you to know where our preorders stand and the work that needs to be completed, because I'd love to invite you to help Tatiana and I reach this goal.

We currently have 270 preorders. We need 730 more to hit 1,000 (I just used a calculator, I studied English, besties).

We've added preorder incentives if you haven't ordered yet: An 8x10 POSTER of the cover. (This cover is so freaking gorgeous!), a sticker and signed bookplate are available when you order from the following stores:

The Twisted Spine

Mysterious Galaxy

Prairie Lights (personalization available)

If you haven't preordered yet, please do soon! The more buzz around the book, the more likelihood this book will make lists and maybe even get the gorgeous special edition it deserves!

If you have preordered, please help us convince others to not wait until release day and to support the author today! Preorders are SO important for authors and they have been really down this year altogether! If you can spare it, now is the time!

Thank you all so much for supporting, sharing, reviewing! I love this community and how hard we work together for our authors!
