Hello, hello!

We are 23 days from the publication date! This is the part that feels like the twelve days of Christmas. Every day there is another little gift to happen upon; bookmarks, digital ads, and some very early reviews. I just saw and approved the e-book version of Eudaimonia. Some of you have even sent me screenshots of your Amazon order updating the expected delivery date. We are in the end game now!

I wanted to take a moment to once again say thank you. When I embarked on this fever dream five years ago, I did not know what to expect. But one of the things that most surprised me was how easily you all said, "yes." Your "yes" (e-book purchase, retweet, supportive comment, etc.) has changed my life. I know, I know, Lord, Meghan, could you be any more cheesy? (for the record, yes, so be impressed; this is me showing restraint.) But "yes" from folks across every facet and season of my life changed the way I thought about myself and what I could do. Knowing that other people believe you are capable of something can be a kind of self-fulfilling prophecy. We have now reached the weird part that I am very bad at. It will only devolve into misty, heartfelt nods. So, I’m going to stop here and say: thank you.   

For those of you in and around the Greenville area, we will be having a party Saturday, November 12. I tried to pull out all the local backers and invite you individually, but, if you haven’t seen the e-vite yet, I probably did a bad job or it may have gotten lost in the ether of the internet. Internet and other idiocies aside, this whole publication business wouldn’t have happened without your "yes". This little party is a small way for me to say thank you to your wonderful faces. I hope to see you there. 

Here is the e-vite link:  http://evite.me/GNgUASJxwN

Appreciatively,

Meghan Godwin
