Snow Struck is finally here!
Snow Struck is finally on sale today and I want to take a minute to thank everyone who’s subscribed to and shared this newsletter, and everyone who’s pre-ordered and requested Snow Struck from the library, and to all my friends and family who’ve told anyone/everyone that I have some fun books they should check out!
When I do school visits, I always talk about how many people it takes to publish a book. There are agents and editors and copy-editors and designers and marketers and sales people . . . but maybe most importantly, there are people like you: readers and educators and librarians who help give a book life after it’s finally published.
So, sincerely, thank you - and thank you for being along for this ride!
I’m linking to a bunch of Snow Struck stuff below (an excerpt and read-along and audiobook sample, free teacher resources, my unboxing video, the free Storm Blown and Snow Struck coloring book and more!) . . . and all shares and forwards are very much appreciated.
If you’re my current or future BFF and you’re wondering what else you can do to help me celebrate today: any positive ratings and reviews of Snow Struck that you can post will help a lot more than you’d think - both to let my publisher know that people are liking Snow Struck and to boost it into some kind of algorithm that I don’t really understand :) Thank you so much . . .
And thank you for reading!
