Alright, so despite the really unfortunate news that I can't ship into EU, I've decided to go ahead with the Special Edition Hardcover Omnibus.

If anyone follows me on Instagram, you may have seen that I'll be an attending author at Readers & Rebels Book Event next year in Wales. So, if anyone I can't ship to wants to detour... 😉

Now, it's only 16 days until the campaign launches and I've gotten many questions about what tiers will be available. Well, not one to keep you in suspense (and also help you set some money aside in case you want to pledge) let me show you!

Keep in mind, if you pledge within the first 48 hrs you can nab the Hardcover Omnibus for only $55. First 100, only. If you're in one of the countries I can't ship to, there's a digital version for Early Bird as well. For $20. First 50 backers, only.

Some of the art included. For the art I can't show here, please join my Discord Server.

I hope I've managed to have enough pledges for everyone's budget. 
Even if you're not in a country I can ship to, you can always support Safi and Nai by pledging to the digital rewards. 

This campaign is not available in Russia or Israel.

Hey, everyone.
I hope you're all doing well and having a fantastic weekend.

I have some really disappointing news about the special edition. 

⚠️  Because of new EU packaging and waste regulations, I’m no longer able to ship physical rewards to countries within the EU or to Norway.

I’m genuinely gutted about this. I’ve put so much effort, and time into planning the physical edition, and I wanted it to be available to as many of you as possible. But complying with the different requirements would come with costs and financial risks that I simply can’t take on as a small indie author.

So, for now, all EU countries and Norway are off the table for physical rewards. (Sweden is exempt from this.)

I hate it. You hate it. Let's just all take a moment to hate this properly together for a minute. 😭

However, I can still ship the physical special edition to countries outside the EU and Norway.  Eg: The US, UK, Canada, Australia, etc

BUT before I commit to getting it printed, I need some idea of how many people would actually want one, because if there aren’t enough of us, the numbers may no longer make sense.

❗ If you live outside the EU and Norway and would seriously consider backing the physical special edition, please take the poll BELOW.

This isn’t a commitment to buy anything! I’m only trying to get a realistic sense of where everyone is and whether there’s still enough interest to move ahead with printing.

And, because I need to end this announcement with at least one piece of good news:
digital rewards will still be available worldwide.
No matter where you live, you’ll still be able to join the campaign and get the books, artwork, Springwell extras, and other digital goodies.

Thank you for bearing with me while I try figure all of this out. This was really not the news I wanted to share, but you know me, and I’d rather be honest with you about where things stand than take a financial risk that could put myself and my family in a financial pinch. 💛

Hey all!
I can't believe there's almost 200 of you here. That's absolutely amazing and I'm so blown away by your support. So, naturally, I wanted to come up with something cool for you all!

I've already talked about the Early Bird incentive that whoever pledges, no matter the sum, gets the Welcome To Springwell Pack. BUT... I don't feel like that's enough. Because you're all here, believing in me and in this project and if you pledge, you're helping build Safi's and Nai's world. Thus, let me present:

A beautiful digital or printed pass (if you pledge to the hardcover omnibus) showing you as one of the founders of Springwell. With your backer number on it.

Once I have the design ready for it, I'll post an update here.

HOW TO GET THE PASS
You'll get the pass once you pledge to any tier if you followed the project before launch. That's it! Easy peasy!

BUT that's not all.
If you're a returning backer from my Kickstarter years ago, you'll also get a digital (or printed) signed Thank You bookplate. All you have to do, is support any of the tiers. 

That's it this time!
If you want to see more of me, follow my Discord or Instagram. Or better yet: my newsletter. 🌈

So, I've been tinkering with this campaign, as some of you know.
One of the things I did was accidentally pressing a fancy button. 😅
BUT I figured since you're all here I wanted to add two Early Bird Deals.
One that everyone gets by simply backing with any pledge.
And one for anyone wanting the Hardcover omnibus.

The campaign goes live SEPTEMBER 1st! This is just giving you the details ahead of time. 

1. The Digital Early Bird Bonus
2. Springwell Legend Early Bird

Is there anything you'd love to see as a reward or stretch goal?

Hey everyone,
I just wanted to let you know that whilst poking around the dashboard trying to get everything set up, I think I accidentally added some of the project followers to follow me as well. 

I'm really sorry if I added you! I didn't realise that's what that button did. 🫣

If you were added, again, I'm so sorry.
