Hey Amie, I’m Aus based and received my pre order prints today (they’re stunning!!!) but not the pin or bookplate, but I definitely qualified for the early bird special - is this something I need to follow up with Allen & Unwin?

I'm so excited to start the book 😁😁

Is there an update for when the preorder items will be sent?

I'm not the one sending them, so take this for what it's worth, but right now we're set to meet the timelines set out in the FAQs on the preorder page -- everything in Australia and the US should be in the mail by the end of May, and in the UK it will be early June, because I'm going there and I'm taking the swag with me. It feels safer than trusting the international postal service to get everything over there.

Thank you 😁. I must have missed that in the FAQs.

I just started the book and love it.

Eeeeeeeeeeee so keen for this book!! Do we need to show/sign up for anything to receive the map (like how we had to show our receipts for the preorder goodies) or does it come with any copy pre-ordered with QBD?

It should just come with the copy from QBD. They look so good!

Way to crush that hike, Amie! (There’s a creative lesson in here indeed... something about writing being a marathon and not a sprint... about pausing to refill the well when you feel depleted... etc etc) It’s amazing how often approaches to creativity living overlap with plain old regular living, huh?

Turns out wisdom is just wisdom, wherever we're applying it. Something we learn again and again!
