Hello, dear readers,
As promised, I’m back with more news, and with only five weeks until Great Big Beautiful Life hits shelves, I will be popping up a little more often with fun things to share. The first of which is, I’m doing a couple of virtual events to celebrate and I would looooove if you attended!
First up, on release night, I’m going to be doing a joint virtual event hosted by some really wonderful indie bookshops: King’s English Bookshop, Boswell Books, Browseabout Books, Fabled Bookshop, Grand Gesture Books, and The Novel Neighbor. That’s at 8 pm ET on April 22, and you can get tickets from any of the participating bookstores. Anyone who purchases a ticket for this even in March is guaranteed receive an exclusive designed print featuring a quote from the book with their purchase. Quantities of the print become limited starting 4/1!
Then, on the 23rd at 6 pm ET, I’ll doing another virtual event with Barnes & Noble! You can get tickets to that here here! Your ticket will include the B&N special exclusive edition of the book which is, in my opinion, unbelievably gorgeous in the way of a sexy summer desert. A limited number of these will be signed as well, but this is first come, first served, I believe so if you want one of those copies, get your ticket as soon as you’re able.
Last but definitely not least, I’ll be continuing my yearly tradition of doing an online event with my local indie bookshop Joseph Beth on April 24th, at 7 pm ET. Anyone who already purchased a personalized copy via Joseph Beth will already have access to this event, but tickets are also still available for purchase!
I’ll be announcing who I’ll be in conversation with for each of these events soon, but as always, just wanted to give you all the first grab at the signed copies and prints before opening it up to the wider world!
That’s all I’ve got right now, aside from just an immense thank you for 1) being so excited for this book that you sold out the personalized copies in roughly 1 hour and 2) to all the booksellers, reviewers, and librarians out there who have taken the time to request, read, and review the book so far. I continue to feel like the luckiest person on the planet to have you as readers. You’re the reason able to do this work I love so much, and I’ll never stop thanking you for that.
With so much love,
Emily
