Well friends,
It seems I owe you an apology for the “fire drill” yesterday. I thought (just like everyone else in this contest) that Monday, Oct 9th was the end of this contest. SURPRISE! That is not the case!
Inkshares seemed to have had a glitch with the web page that they were unaware of:
“The end date was always the end of the day on the 16th, but a glitch in the system kept making it the 10th. We did not know this was going on until very recently, or we absolutely would have sent an update. We will address this to everyone soon.” -Elena Stofle
So while that was vastly confusing, the silver lining here is we have one more week! (TUES OCT 17TH)
I appreciate everyone who has already pre-ordered! Thank you so much for all your help getting Eudaimonia into AND keeping it in the top 3.
Currently, there are 26 pre-orders separating 3rd and 4th place. Which is the difference of having a book published or not.
You know what I’m going to ask since this isn’t our first rodeo. :) But, this time I took a page from Mr. Paul Gulyas, who happens to be in first place, and created a little copy and paste snippet that might be helpful. (When you ask your pals, pals of pals, and long lost 2nd cousins to help THIS sister out.)
My friend, Meghan, is trying to get her book published. Would you help her by pre-ordering? Or maybe giving her book, Eudaimonia, a shout out on Facebook, Twitter or email?https://www.inkshares.com/books/eudaimonia-48b598
You would be surprised the power of one pre-order!
Again, I am very sorry for the confusion.
As you were, keep on trucking, we are nearly there because Oct 17th is when this contest is actually over!

Hello Friends!
We are down to 10 HOURS left in the pre-order contest.
Only 26 pre-orders are separating 3rd place from 4th place. Nailbiter!
If I can stay in 3rd, Eudaimonia will be published! I’d love your help with that.
If you haven’t pre-ordered, NOW would be an excellent time to do so: https://www.inkshares.com/books/eudaimonia-48b598
If you have, would you mind giving Eudaimonia a shout out on the social media? You can share to Facebook and Twitter right from this link as well: https://www.inkshares.com/books/eudaimonia-48b598
I’d really appreciate it!
You guys are the best,
Meghan Godwin
7 more days. Home stretch, friends!
Eudaimonia is still in 3rd place! But I have a feeling there will be a flutter of last minute pre-orders this week for everyone. Nothing is for certain as of right now.
So, if you have not pre-ordered yet, would you? And for those of you who have, would you mind, one last time, sharing this with your friends?

This has been one of the most rewarding things I have done in a long time. I can’t tell you how flattering it is to tell someone about this contest and get responses like “You bet!” “I’m in!” or (my personal favorite) “Done.” How quickly everyone jumped on board to support this, to support me, has just been so encouraging and motivating.
Before I was, “Eh, if I make it, cool.” Now, I’m more like, “Shoot, I do not want to let my mom or Sara down!”
It has also been so nice to chat up folks I haven’t seen in a while. I mean, we are social media friends, I get to see all the pictures of their kids growing up, the antics of their pets, and hilarious memes. Yard roosters, pictures of triathlons, and envy-worthy vacations. Oh, and the memes and GIFs and Bitmojis! But, a back and forth message with a former co-worker? Friends from high school saying they are proud of me? My brother calling me to ask “how are things?”.
The best. So thank you.
Thank you for all your shares, tweets, private messages, and emails on my behalf. (“Upon pain of death for noncompliance,” said my most aggressive supporter while another mailed me a Nobel Prize medallion he found somewhere on the internet.) The support has been unbelievable.
So, thank you, again.
But onto the matter at hand, to getting this book published, right?
Nearly there,
Meghan Godwin
