terriblenerd:terriblenerd:terriblenerd:Hey everyone! Little Thieves is officially out on the shelves today, so I thought I’d make a post of places you can grab a copy!First, this link will tell you the closest independent bookstores that have it in stock (in the right column on desktop)!You can also order from my local indie, which would be swell!!Bookshop dot org is a great alternative to Amazon that helps support independent bookstores as well!Little Thieves SHOULD be in stock at your local Barnes & Noble, and you can check here! Ordering from B&N is also great because they’re Amazon’s main competitor, and if they go out of business… well, it won’t be good.And finally, yes! You can get Little Thieves on Amazon. Boosting the Amazon rank is also pretty helpful!!If you can’t afford the book right now, no worries—requesting through your local library is also great! Books that are in high demand may get additional copies purchased for the collection. Adding on Goodreads and boosting on social media is also much appreciated, since word-of-mouth is way more effective than me just saying “buy my book, there’s a horrible girl!”(But also: please buy my book. There is a very horrible girl.) Not to spam folks, but boosting this again for anyone who missed it and/or needed a reminder! If you didn’t know, for the overwhelming majority of authors, the first week of sales is their best shot at hitting the NYT bestseller list. Since Little Thieves came out this Tuesday the 19th, ordering or buying in-store by Tuesday the 26th will count! I have not hit the list before, but I sure would like to—hitting the list actually increases sales even further, for one. But beyond just feeding me and my cats, publishers tend to decide whether to keep publishing authors based on their sales. (Which, considering how little control authors have over the marketing for their book…. is….. challenging.) I’d say Little Thieves has a decent shot at hitting the list next week, but it’s up against a lot of really great books, at a time when supply chain issues are flipping tables all over the place. So: I will take all the help I can get! ✨Oh, and PS: if we do hit the list, I will share a dramatic reading of either a minute of my bad teen fanfiction, or one of the many short stories I wrote in grade school. This is the best offer I can make. One more boost for anyone who may have missed this earlier! And to clarify: all sales are GREAT, but right now, the only NYT list Little Thieves is eligible for is the YA Hardcover list, so if you’re trying to help me out in that area, a hardcover is the way to go! Final boost! I won’t be bugging y’all after this, haha, but if you’ve been meaning to pick up a hardcover copy, there are about 24 hours left until the cutoff for it to count towards bestseller lists. In-store purchases count! Placing an order online counts! And just sharing this around ye olde tumblr graveyard helps too!! -- source link
