Update on Monster AU Pre-orders + Store Opening (Patreon)

Hi guys!! Thank you all for your patience with me regarding the monster au, and the relatively spammy deluge of Hollanov these past few weeks. I just wanted to come in and say that there's finally a date for preorders!!

My store (bluegiragistore.com) will open on Jan 20th 8:25AM AEST, with all the regular merchandise available alongside a digital copy of the Monster AU as well as a pre-order option for the physical copy. The digital copy will be $50 AUD and the physical copy will be $110 AUD (not including shipping). This translates into $33 USD and $73-74 USD respectively. The digital copy will be a one-time payment that will then allow you to download the pdfs for both Volume 1 and 2 of the Monster AU - if you'd like to print these books out and bind them yourselves because it's cheaper than buying the physical copy, please feel free! The pre-order option will take your payment through the store but please keep in mind that there will likely be at least a month's worth of wait before you receive your physical copies as I'll be using the pre-order numbers to determine volume, and will only send an order to the printing company after I get that number. I've also started working with a company based in the US that will handle my stock and fulfill any orders - from now on, any support questions made through the store will be directed to them. Also, it means that shipping to customers within the US will likely be cheaper!

The store will remain open for 7 days, closing at Jan 27th 5pm AEST and the pre-order period will end there too. I'll be intentionally ordering slightly more stock than the pre-order numbers say, just in case people want to buy copies in the future, but this extra stock will likely be quite minimal as I don't want to take up too much warehouse space. In the future, if I do run out of stock I'll let people know when I order another printing run. I'll also be unable to offer any signed versions, as all the stock will be in the US and...I am in a different country. Sorry about that.

Overall, I think that's all the information I need to cover...The online store will remain locked down until the 20th as I set up everything in advance. Please let me know if you have any more questions about the store opening/pre-order period!
