If Shapes Could Eat - A picture book encouraging a healthy relationship with food!

Hello, hello!

I have been busy getting samples of the books and putting final touches on them before choosing a final printer! Thanks again for all of your support!

One thing that I will need is for anyone that has chosen the "Brought to you By" page add on to let me know what name they would like to appear in their survey by 11/15. There is still an opportunity to add that option during your survey as well.

SHIPPING:
During the trial of surveys that went out I was able to fix some of the bugs in the shipping charges. Some pledges have FREE SHIPPING (Brunch & Breakfast), and all are eligible for LOCAL PICKUP in Las Vegas, NV. The average shipping charges are $6-9 dollars unless you have chosen multiple add-ons. If you encounter any bugs, please let me know and I can fix it on the back end and make sure it's correct.

I will be sending the remaining surveys out shortly after this update.

EXCITING NEWS!

I have begun the mockup process for the card game that will accompany If Shapes Could Eat. It will be a new rendition of the classic game of War with elements of Monopoly Go. I'm still in the early stages but I would love to get your feedback on the box design and cards. What are your thoughts? 

I hope you have a great day and you're ready for the holidays!

Best,

Rella B

It's been 11 wakeups since our campaign ended and man am I glad it's over, because now we can get to the best part! Thank you so much for helping us get across the finish line!

I am so happy to announce that the illustrations are in the final stages and edits! The last thing I need to do is have the copy editor ok the files, get the ISBN, LCCN, format them and send them off to the printer! This should occur within the next 2 or 3 weeks along with me sending out a survey to collect your address and any information I need to fulfill your rewards. If you happen to have friends that would like a discounted copy of If Shapes Could Eat before it is launched to the public in Feb/Mar please have them check out my preorder store!

Here are some previews of the illustrations!

If you would like to hear the story you can check out my podcast to hear me read it here! I will be finalizing and delivering all of the digital rewards as well in the next 3-5 weeks.

Here is the highly anticipated cookie recipe for our Bake-a-Book Kit! I have made these nifty print outs to share at the book festival Oct 19th in Las Vegas! I would love to see you there if you're local! If you would still like to add a cookie mix to your order that will be available during the survey too.


Until next time!

Howdy!!

We have chosen a winner! Everyone voted that the Bake a Book Kit flavor will be Strawberry White Chocolate Chip Cookies!

Thanks so much for voting and I will send the recipe to you when I fulfill all of the other digital rewards at the end of the campaign :). I cannot wait to try these cookies! They're only 3 Bake a Book Kits left but you can order them even if you pledge the digital or donation tier so order yours today!

You know who else loves cookies? Our cute little rhombus main character! Make sure you vote on what their name should officially be, the poll closes in 2 days!

We are sitting at 72% funding and I am so grateful; however, this campaign will not be able to be fulfilled for anyone unless we reach the finish line of at least 100% by the 26th of September.

Please consider sharing or pledging the campaign and I'll let you know what name is chosen for our little purple friend in a few days! You can pledge here!

Thanks again!

Aloha !!!

I just wanted to say hello and thank you! We achieved so much in the first week:

I know I have asked a lot already, but I really need your help... What kind of cookies do we want to have for our Bake-a-Book Recipe? Please take a minute and let me know in the poll! Whether you back or not, you will get a copy! But I would - LOVE LOVE LOVE - it if you supported the book as well.

Tata for now!
