15+ projects backed in 2025
Project Update: Fulfillment complete!
I shipped most of the paperbacks last month, with the very last straggler for a dear friend of mine (you know who you are) finally going out yesterday. If anyone who pledged for a paperback hasn't received theirs yet, or if you're having trouble accessing digital items, just let me know and I'd be happy to look into it for you. I'm a bit behind on other plans of mine, like putting Graft fully up for sale on my website and other retailers, but I'm starting to catch up. Thanks so much for being here!
For those of you also following Honeycomb Heart, expect an update from me for that project later this week.
Happy "oh my god the sun is starting to show its face again" time of the year,
Madeleine
Project Update: Bulk paperback order received, main fulfillment starting this weekend!
(When I said I was hoping to avoid the rush of Christmas shipping, this isn't quite what I had in mind. But the books didn't take a week-long detour in Vegas this time on their way to me, so I guess I'll take what I can get 😅)
I wanted to thank you all for your patience as I was waiting for the proof copies and then the bulk order. I'm excited to put on a playlist and open the new year with getting copies of Graft ready to fly the coop. 2025 has been...a year, to say the least, and I'm hoping 2026 brings us all some good times and less stress.
Happy New Year's,
Madeleine

I received my copy these days and I'm blown away. The description of autism: perfect, I finally find myself in a character. The what the hell is happening: perfect. I'm only past the first chapters, but I wanted to thank you, for taking the long journey from your mind to this book. This will be an awesome holiday time and I will follow you to the next book and beyond. Stay healthy and creative. The world needs you!
Project Update: Proofs arrived, ebooks delivered, and paperback fulfillment starting!
For EU and UK people who selected a paperback as their rewards, I'm having the printer's UK location send your book directly to you. For US and Canada people with paperbacks, I'm placing a bulk order and will then send you your copies. Holiday season shipping can get a bit messy, but I'm hoping for smooth sailing (and that no more books decide to take a holiday in Vegas on their way to me.)
Thanks for being here and sticking with me throughout this process!

Project Update: Locking addresses and charging shipping fees soon, proof copies on way
Proof copies are on their way to me. I was very much hoping to have them in hand before Thanksgiving, as I paid extra for rush service printing. Unfortunately, the printer's stated turnaround for that was about six days shorter than reality. Combine that with shipping delays around Thanksgiving, and yeah. This update is partly an attempt to game the system; as I'm sure we've all experienced, the moment you complain about a problem to someone else, it likes to solve itself and make you look like a fool. Fingers crossed the package arrives tomorrow.
As soon as I have the proof copies and barring any printing errors, I will be ordering copies sent to me for US and Canada fulfillment, having the printer send copies to UK and EU backers via their UK branch, and posting ebooks to download. If you need a paperback delivered before Christmas, please reach out ASAP and I will see what I can do to get it to you faster.
I've set addresses to lock and shipping fees to charge in 48 hours. If you need to edit your address after that period, just let me know and I'll give you a hand.
Hope you're all settling in for a comfortable winter,
Madeleine
