Fizz Hangout Weekly Discussion: May 3rd, 2024 (Patreon)

Welcome to the newest Fizz Hangout! Every Friday, you all can stop by the weekly Fizz Hangout post and ask questions (to us or to your fellow patrons), discuss recent bonus scenes and/or podcasts with each other, and catch up on all the goodies you might've missed!

HANGOUT QUESTION: we love seeing your response to questions about the Like Us series, and it helps facilitate some awesome discussions! Each week, there'll be a new "hangout question" that you can answer in the comments, if you wish!

What's your current favorite cover trend? Do you like illustrated, objects, typography, or are you partial to people on covers?

Weekly Recap

Happy Friday, magical & heroic beauties!! It's MAY! Wow...we are only two months away from Dishonestly Yours. It's getting SO freaking close. And we are just days away from turning in Book 2 to our editor. Everything is happening so fast and yet so slow (as is the way of traditional publishing). We love this series so much that we are just in shambles you all can't read it yet! Truly, we've put our hearts into these books, and they are so different than anything we've written, but they have all the elements we LOVE to write. Family bonds, flawed characters, and a soul mate romance. Gah! We're going to be talking your ears off about it for the next few months, so we hope you don't get sick of us!

Patreon is still very much our happy place. Even though we're deep inside a world outside of the Hales, Meadows, Cobalts, we always yearn to return to them. So bonuses have been such a treat! And in case you missed it, here's what went down on Patreon this week:

Extra Bonus Scene: Extra Bonus #85: Easton Moves In

Monthly Podcast: Monthly Podcast #76: Found Families: Garrison, Farrow, Donnelly, and Easton’s Relationships with the Hales

Extra Podcast: Extra Podcast: Updates & Dishonestly Yours Teases

Suggestion Box: Suggestions for the May Monthly Podcast

THE SIGNED BOOK STORE

Our signed book store is restocked periodically. Keep checking it to see if a sold out item has been stocked. Any new updates will be posted here:

ICYMI: FULL STORE RESTOCK

The store has been fully restocked earlier this week. You can see the restock announcement here.

ICYMI: IMPORTANT NEWS

Once we sell out of our current inventory, we will be transitioning the store from signed books to signed bookplates.

What does that mean? The signatures won't be inside the book but your book will automatically come with a bookplate with both of our signatures.

Why the change? We no longer live together, so it's more difficult to carve out time away from writing to drive up to sign books. Bookplates are our solution, since we can ship them to each other.

If you REALLY need to finish your collection with signed books, NOW is the time to order them. Once a book sells out, the next time it's for sale on the store it will be signed via bookplate. (There will be an indicator when you're ordering a book signed via bookplate. As of right now, all signatures are inside the book.)

If you have any questions about the store, sound below in the comments, and you can always email the store at kbr.authorstore@gmail.com xoxo
