Hi listeners.

 

I am so, so excited—and admittedly rather nervous—to announce the download links for Midnight in Jubilation are on their way to your inboxes as you read this update! All documents have now been reviewed by my accessibility consultant and are ready for use! Following their good advice, I’ve made a lower size, lower resolution version of the graphics PDF available for download too, which is also screen reader compatible. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to get the file size of the primary graphics PDF under 20 megabytes without losing some image quality, so while I recognise a lower resolution version isn’t exactly ideal, I hope this supports anyone who needs a version under 15 megabytes.

 

If you have any troubles with the downloads, please let me know via my support email: [email protected], so I can look into it.

 

In further exciting news, the shipping rates have now been approved in the pledge manager and I have finished checking over a good portion of the books! Given the sheer number of you who so generously supported my campaign at the physical tiers, I’ve also been considering how best to make the packaging and shipping stage more manageable from here.

 

My current thinking is that I will still send out the notification shortly about locking addresses, but then look at dividing the parcels up into smaller batches. This means that rather than charging everyone at once for shipping, I’ll be aiming to put the charges through a few days before I start working on that batch of parcels, and you won’t be charged too far in advance of your book being ready to post.

 

Thank you all for your ongoing support!

 

For today’s song recommendations I’d like to leave you with Wichita Lineman by Glen Campbell and I Wanna Be Adored by Black City Lights.

 

Dorian.
