About

The book already exists! I just need to print it. And I've decided to send an audiobook to everyone who has contributed to the project, if successful! I've recently made a great deal to record the book that makes it possible with the original goal!

It's received more 5-star reviews than 4-star reviews, including professional editorial reviews from Readers' Favorite. (And it's starting to build a little cult following.)

The same distribution company that put the ebook all over the world through dozens of retailers will make paperback and hardcover copies that can be purchased from stores around the globe! (And online, of course.)

The quotes have already been drawn up from the distributor. Now I need help covering the costs so we can get more people (especially the less digital ones) a copy of this book to enjoy.

I really don't want to do print-on-demand. I feel it makes the book twice as expensive as it should be. Printing the book in this way will make it a much more reader-friendly price point. That's my goal. Our win-win.

Risks and challenges

The book is already written. The distributor already has the files. The distributor has already drawn up a quote. Those who have already read the book have given their endorsement. There is no risk to the paperbacks' production and delivery.

The biggest problem would be fulfilling all the rewards. Those have their own production timelines. Mostly, the turnaround on those is faster than the printing of the books, but it would be a lot of inventory to manage. I will potentially have thousands of books and related gifts to process. I am okay with that and have plenty of extra hands willing to help.

There is only one way to eat an elephant. One bite at a time. I have an innate ability to focus on the details while keeping the big picture in mind. I am also in the unique position to be able to put all my time into the fulfillment of this project.

It's huge. This is no small order. But I can handle it.
