@grubreport.bsky.socialReposted by @literaticat.bsky.socialFirst draft written in 2016 & 12 yrs later THIS. IS. HAPPENING!!! So grateful that @literaticat.bsky.social, Emily Feinberg, and Fifth Color Press/Macmillan took a chance on this EXTREMELY weird and dark book. I am so excited to see what me and the wickedly hilarious Vera Brosgol create together!
@literaticat.bsky.socialUnfortunately most books are printed overseas and shipped to this country, subject to all the same shipping disruption and fuel price issues lots of industries are facing 😭 the good news is, stores won’t run out of GREAT BOOKS! (They just MIGHT run out of whatever one particular book you want)
@literaticat.bsky.socialI guess I feel like, if you are selling so many copies that bookstores run out and can’t get them back in stock in time for Christmas — you are selling more than most people and are doing well!
@literaticat.bsky.socialIts not just books, obviously, but.
@literaticat.bsky.social@literaticat.bsky.socialI mean the good news is, there are A LOT of great books! So if the store runs out of whatever one you are looking for… you can always shop for something else that is awesome! 👏
@literaticat.bsky.socialHeads up, Bookworms: There will likely be💀supply chain issues💀 this holiday season. So if there are specific books you have your heart set on for holiday gifting, I strongly suggest you buy/order them ahead of time (✨like now✨) rather than waiting until November/December.

@literaticat.bsky.socialAsk the Agent question of the day is a throwback to a classic! “What does that scary “if you bought this book without a cover it is STOLEN PROPERTY” warning inside some books actually mean?”
(In which I discuss bookstore returns, how they work, why they’re good, ETC)
@andreabrownlit.bsky.socialReposted by @literaticat.bsky.social🌊 The hype continues for THE ODYSSEY: A Graphic Novel —both the paperback and The Deluxe Edition—by Gareth Hinds! They are on the Indie Bestseller list for another week!!
