Update #1 - Welcome + Join Me on 8/14! July 8, 2024

Dearest readers,

I'm so excited to have you on the publishing journey with me! As you know, the Dating "Disability"  campaign is now in full swing. We currently have three publishers interested in my proposal and over 130 pre-orders. 

I've been very moved by your support for this book and am grateful for your belief in my writing and vision. It means so much.

The crowdfunding campaign closes in 26 days, so please tell your friends and anyone interested to purchase their pre-order bonuses by then. Once the campaign ends, I will pick a publisher and finalize the publishing timeline. 

In the meantime, I would like to invite all of you to join me in a virtual discussion with Michael Appleton, a psychotherapist who is writing a book called The Shame Deception. Michael will interview me about my book, experiences with shame, and my prescription for overcoming shame in my dating life on 8/14 at noon EST.  The discussion is free to attend and you can RSVP at this link!

I plan to send publishing and event updates to this community about once a month. So please stay tuned. If you want more updates on my work in the meantime though, please check out my website or follow me on Instagram

All the best and take care!

Emily
