Here’s a confession: I’ve never pre-ordered a book in my life. Since becoming a parent, my reading time has dwindled, and when I do buy a book, it’s often after countless recommendations from friends. That book then collects dust on my nightstand for months before I finally store it away, never to be opened again.
So, I realize it’s a bit unfair for me to ask you to pre-order my new book. I get it; you could easily wait a month and grab it later. But let me share why ordering in advance can make a difference!
For one, pre-orders help bookstores decide if they should stock the book, and they also influence my publisher’s decisions regarding my book tour locations (I’m mostly hitting the East Coast, but I’d love to make it out to Texas and the West Coast too—come on, I know you’re out there!). Plus, ordering online now is just $10, which is five bucks cheaper than in-store prices, and all pre-sales contribute to the initial sales figures!
Still not sure? Here are some sweet incentives:
- If you pre-order before March 31, you’ll receive a limited edition, hand-signed bookplate and bookmark. Already ordered? You’re still eligible! Just fill out a quick form, and in about eight weeks, your goodies will be on their way.
- Are you part of a book club? If you pre-order ten copies before March 31, you’ll get a fantastic Scary Mommy Book Club Pack. This includes 10 bookmarks, recipe cards for my signature cocktail and dessert, 10 signed bookplates, 10 copies of the Scary Mommy Manifesto, 5 cupcake toppers, and the Scary Mommy Confessions game. Just snap a screenshot of your order confirmation and send it my way!
- Feeling ambitious? If you pre-order 30 books before March 31, you’ll receive a Scary Mommy Party Pack. Perfect for any celebration, this pack includes the Scary Mommy Confessions game, 30 cupcake toppers, recipe cards for my signature cocktail and dessert, a cute onesie, 30 signed bookplates, a shopping list for party essentials, and a CD with downloadable invitations, place cards, and more. It’s the ultimate party kit that I wish I had for every weekend!
Honestly, I think even I would pre-order a book with these perks. There’s really no reason not to jump on this opportunity, right?
