The Kickstarter to fund the print run for the special editions launches July 15th! There will be ebook, paperback, and hardcover special editions available.
The Books
These special editions are thick (600ish and 1,000ish, respectively), and Melissa from Book Love Designs put together gorgeous new covers for them! The trim size is 6" x 9" for both the hardcovers and paperbacks.
Dust Jacket Wraps
There will be art on the insides of the dust jackets!
Hard Case Designs
These will be foiled, along with the dust jackets and paperback covers!
End Paper Designs
The paperbacks will have duplex covers with art instead of end papers.
Chapter Header Designs
I put a lot of thought into these! Wren’s is lilacs for her favorite color and books because she loves them. Elliot’s is rope because, well, you know. Rhett’s is a knife because he’s the knife guy, but I picked this specific image because the sharpness and darkness made me think of him. And then Oliver’s is a piano because it’s a big part of who he is. <3
Ludo’s will be a surprise. ;)
The Art
All of this will be in the books! Plus a lot more that’s still in progress. :) Currently, we’re looking at around 25 pieces of art per volume.

How it Works: There are different tiers in the Kickstarter. You can only select one tier. Those tiers give you access to add-ons. You can add as many add-ons as you want!
***All books will be signed.***
A Note on Payment Plans
I’m planning on offering payment plans for the hardcover tier and the book box tiers. I know they’re expensive. Getting these books printed is expensive, especially because I’m using a printer from the UK, and shipping from there to the US isn’t cheap.
I promise I’m trying to keep these prices as low as I can. But I also have to make sure I’m not going to have to pay out of pocket for a lot of stuff I can’t afford. It’s a balance. <3
