Keep It Secret, Keep It Safe, or ...? (Patreon)

Hello lovelies!

EXCITING/EXHAUSTING TIMES. I have a question for you!

SLOW CIRCUS: VACUUM's final copy edits are complete & back from my editor, I'm waiting on a foreward from a peer, and I'm finalizing the interior design elements of the project before I send it to the printer for the PROOF COPY!*

(*refresher: that's the single copy that the printer whips up and sends to me so I can check over a physical test copy for any errors, typos, margin issues, print quality things, etc.)

Would you folks like to help me look over the .pdf proof before I send it to the printer, like a big team of nerdy artistic editors? .... OR .... would you rather it be a lovely SURPRISE when the book lands in your arms sometime mid/late March (or potentially April, depending on where you live in the world & what the state of the postal system is at that moment *small eye roll*).

If MOST of you want it to be a surprise, then I can just send the .pdf download to the few of you who want the early peek. It can be as cursory as "WOW YEAH WOOOO!!!!" or as nit-picky as reviewing the copy (which is tightened up nicely, but there's alwaysssss a little something missed here and there, no matter how hard we try...).

If MOST of you want to be on this newly created Strange Wonderful Quality Check team (hee hee), then I will post it here as in a low-res/web quality version (and put a nice big disclaimer on it so you don't click on it if you want it to be a ~surprise~).

I'm aiming to submit it to the printer for my proof copy by middle-to-end of next week. I'll let you folks answer the poll over the weekend and then move forward with whatever majority response there is on Monday!

KEEP IT STRANGE & WONDERFUL!
