Brian Fitzpatrick liked an update for Sorcery for Beginners
Friends, Readers, and Sorcerers All,

We are officially one month away from the publication day for Sorcery for Beginners! I know it seems like forever since I first started bugging you about this project, but we’re almost to the finish line. As we head into the home stretch, I have a few more updates for you. 

First, Sorcery for Beginners was selected as a Booklist Notable YA Book for Fall 2017. Since there are literally thousands of YA books publishing this fall, it’s very humbling that we were included among the likes of Philip Pullman (!), Patrick Ness, and Rick Riordan. 

Secondly, we have another book event confirmed! This one is in our beloved San Francisco, so we’ll be bringing the whole family and making a weekend trip of it. If you live in the Bay Area, it would be great to see you!

18 November, 2017, 2 pm - 5pm 
Sorcery for Beginners Book Signing
Books, Inc. SF Opera Plaza

Finally, Inkshares made a little video of me talking about the book. You can check it out below. Feel free to share on various social media platforms. This is a grassroots campaign we’re running, so any exposure is huge for us. Thanks again for all your support!

    IMPORTANT UPDATE! PLEASE READ!

    First off, I really want to thank all of you for your support. I am so excited about the way the book turned out and I hope you are, too. I just had a book signing at Bookworks in Albuquerque over the weekend and it went amazing. Thank you for coming! My next signing will be at The Tattered Cover in Denver on September 23rd at 2PM. Please join me!

    KARID update: After some soul searching, I have decided not to publish with Inkshares again for the time being. I don’t see crowdfunding as something I want to do with the next four years of my life, and if I give up the rights to my series that is what will end up happening. This is not to say I won’t consider Inkshares in the future, but for now, it is not a good fit. Thank you for understanding and thank you to all those who preordered KARID right away.

    REVIEWS: Please rate the book on Amazon and Goodreads-it takes you two seconds and it helps me tremendously. 

    PURCHASE ORDERS: Unfortunately my book is one of the few Inkshares titles that hasn’t received a big purchase order out of the gate. Here’s how you can help: 1. Rate the book on Amazon and Goodreads. 2. Go to your local bookstore and tell them they should order some copies. 3. Go to your local Barnes and Noble and request they carry the book. I really do need your help on this-SIF is the type of book that will spread word of mouth!

    AUDIO BOOK DEAL: I can finally announce that SIF will be an audio book! We have penned a deal with Audible and it should be out sometime in November.

    That’s it for now! Thank you for the love and support!

        Greetings, adventurers!

        I’d be remiss if I didn’t update in the wake of exciting news! 

        Guys... we did it. With just 2 days left in the campaign, we hit the 250 mark. Mushroom and Anchovy is FUNDED at the Quill level!

        I’m at a loss for words, but the only two that come to mind are THANK YOU. I couldn’t have done this without everyone reading this e-mail. I’m so grateful for everything. 

        Can I just say that I’m really feeling the Inkshares community love right now? You guys are awesome. Even if I don’t do another crowdfunding campaign in the near future, I’m gonna be sticking around. What a supportive group of fellow authors--a group of very talented people. I’ve learned so much from you all. 

        If you want the chance at a $50 Amazon gift card, you still have time! I’m not closing the contest until the official end of the campaign--which is Monday. So, I will not count any preorders after 11:59 PM on Sunday (Sept. 10th) in the Amazon gift card draw. You’re automatically entered by preordering, but you can pick up some bonus entries. Take a look at the pinned post on my Facebook page for more details. 

        Now, if you don’t mind, I’m going to be taking the next couple days off! I’ll get back to you all with the winner of the draw next week. I’m throwing in two ebook copies of my first book, novella Hub City Survival. It’s nothing like Mushroom and Anchovy, but hopefully the winners will enjoy it anyway!

        That’s it from me for now, guys. This has been a real adventure. Thank you all for helping my biggest goal of this year come to fruition!

        May your adventures be fraught with wonder and just enough peril to keep them interesting,
