Let’s be honest for a moment: I’ve never pre-ordered a book in my life. Since having kids, my reading time has dwindled significantly, and when I do buy a book, it’s usually because I’ve been told repeatedly that I absolutely must read it. More often than not, that book ends up collecting dust on my nightstand for months before I finally tuck it away on a shelf, never to be opened again.
So, I realize it might seem a bit unfair to ask you to pre-order my upcoming book. You might be thinking, “Why not just wait a month and snag it then?” Well, I’m glad you asked! Pre-orders play a crucial role in determining whether bookstores will carry my book and also influence my publisher’s decision on my book tour locations. I’m planning to hit several spots on the East Coast, but I’d love to venture out West and down to Texas. Seriously, I see you out there! Plus, the online price is only ten bucks, while it’ll be five dollars more in-store. And remember, all pre-orders contribute to first-week sales, which is vital.
But maybe that’s not enough to sway you. Here’s an enticing incentive:
- If you pre-order the book by March 31, you’ll receive a hand-signed, limited edition bookplate and bookmark. Already ordered? You’re in luck too! Just complete a simple form, and your goodies will arrive in about eight weeks.
- Interested in bulk? If you pre-order ten books for your book club (or your circle of friends) before March 31, you’ll score a fantastic Scary Mommy Book Club Pack! This includes ten bookmarks, recipe cards for the signature cocktail and dessert, ten signed bookplates, ten copies of the manifesto, five cupcake toppers, and even a fun game. Just send in your order confirmation for your pack.
- For those looking to throw an epic party, pre-order 30 books before March 31, and you’ll get a Scary Mommy Party Pack. Perfect for a baby shower, birthday bash, or a girls’ night in, this pack has it all: games, cupcake toppers, cocktail recipe cards, a onesie, signed bookplates, and a comprehensive shopping list for everything else you’ll need. Plus, a CD with downloadable invitations and more! Again, just share your order confirmation to claim your pack.
Honestly, even I might consider pre-ordering a book if these perks were on the table. It’s hard to find a reason not to jump on this opportunity, right?
