Where the &^*% are your books?

Hi All!
I've been getting some questions and (with a nudge from a wise adviser) I'm reaching out to everybody.
The plan was to have your books in the mail by end of June. That part of the plan happened.
The part of the plan that didn't happen was me putting the right *&%^ postage on the right *&%^ packages, so a whole bunch of the books got returned to me over the past several weeks.
I've been working through them as quickly as I can. This is embarrassing (and expensive). Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. Also, although I've been going through the pile in more or less random order, if you have an even in August for which you need books I'll expedite your books to you.
Thank you for your patience and continued support. Have a great summer!

Thank you all so very much for backing Itty Bitty Writing Space. We're so thrilled with the book and can't wait to get it out to all of you.
We're shipping in June (by the skin of our teeth)....well, starting to ship in June with some of the orders trickling into early July. If you've filled out your backer survey you should receive your stuff by end of July if you're in the United States or Canada. We honestly have no idea how long it will take to reach some of the further corners some of our backers call home.
More to come! Thank you all again!

Hello everybody!
Just a quick note to tell you we've gotten final approval of the book's proof from our authors. The next step is getting it set up with our printer, which should take no more than a week.
We are on schedule for shipping in June!
Also, if you live in an area where several of our backers live, we'll email you with an opportunity to receive your book at an exciting launch party rather than in the boring mail. Stay tuned!
Thanks again for your enthusiasm and support with this project!

The Final Countdown...

Can you believe we're halfway through May?
Despite a few minor slowdowns in getting the last little edits from the last few authors, we are still on track to print in June. It might be mid-June instead of early June, but still...things are moving reasonably smoothly.
While we've got you, two cool announcements.
#1. Backerkit surveys went out over a month ago, and we've had about 86% get filled out. Please check your spam box or contact us here if you have yet to get your survey, and we'll get you all sorted out.
#2. We've had such support for this project, and so many people who wanted to contribute, we're actually going to start a free flash fiction newsletter. More details on that to come, but how nifty is that?
Thank you all again!
ITTY BITTY WRITING SPACE: Progress Report

Hi All!
With it being just a little over a month since we funded, I figured you'd like to know where the project stands.
As of today, we are 100% on schedule. Stories are in (less a couple stragglers), edits are finished and heading out to the authors this week). Cover design is on track, and delivery infrastructure is established. We are solid so far.
Backer Surveys Went Out Last Week, which means you should message me if you haven't received yours. Everybody should have them by now, and we want to make sure you get what you deserve.
Thanks again everybody. This continues to look like it will be our best anthology yet.
