Hey everyone!
Good news! If you backed The Fairy Stepmother Inc, your copy is available! If you ordered a physical book, you should have it, and if you ordered an e-reader copy, it should have arrived in your inbox today.
Now, I had a heck of a time getting my copy on my kindle, and the Amazon link Inkshares sent wasn’t the most helpful. So if you have a kindle and have never done this before, here’s my recommendation. If you don’t have a kindle, I’m sorry--I can’t give you advice. But I hope your Nook or Apple reader is more cooperative.
So, here you go. First of all, I strongly recommend visiting this page:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/sendtokindle
Amazon makes an app that will deliver the file to your kindle, and there are versions for PC, Mac, and Android devices. I have a PC, so I saved the file of my book on my PC, and I clicked on the Send to Kindle for PC link. Choose the link that matches your computer. It will let you download the app and tell you how to use it.
You are supposed to be able to email files to your kindle, but I spent a good hour and a half trying to make this work with no success, so it doesn’t come with my personal seal of approval.
Last step: read the book! I really hope you enjoy it. If you do enjoy it, and you want to leave me a good review on Amazon or Goodreads, I would be very, very grateful. Thanks so much for your support--your preorders made this possible! And if you need more tech support, let me know and I’ll do my very best.

Hi, readers!
Guess what? I have AWESOME news! The Fairy Stepmother Inc. has a release date. It’s...dun dun DUN...December 11th! That’s right, it’s really soon! And in time for the holidays!
Actually, if you ordered an ebook, it’s even sooner. Digital copies will be available on November 30th. There’s a good reason for this that really helps me. One of the best ways for my book to be seen on Amazon and other retailers is for it to get some good reviews. So if you ordered a digital copy, you’ll get it in time to read it and maybe leave me a good review on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or Goodreads. If you enjoy the book (and aren’t, like, my mom or dad--sorry, Mom and Dad), I would so, so appreciate some stars and some good words. If you’ve taken a chance on a book from Amazon, you probably know how reviews help you make a decision. I’d love to be one of the books that makes it into the "Other customers liked..." section.
This also means that it’s a SUPER APPROPRIATE time to make sure your mailing address is correct. Sign in on Inkshares with the email and password you used when you bought the book, and in the upper corner of the screen there should be a little circular icon with a picture. Click on that, and the dropdown menu should have a line that says mailing address. Unfortunately, I can’t look up what address you have on file, but if you have trouble, you can email hello@inkshares.com. Their customer service is super nice and super helpful.
You can still order copies if you’d like! Just pop over to

And while you’re there, check out our official cover art! It’s shiny and pretty!
Thanks so much for your support. You’ve all made it possible for me to say I’m an author!
Best,
Maggie
