Dear Lovely and Loyal Readers,

We are thrilled to announce that your eagerly awaited book is ready for print! Thank you so much for bearing with us through this journey – we know that (helping) to publish a book through crowdfunding was also a new experience for most of you!

We are happy to inform you that you - our early supporters - will receive your pre-ordered book(s) in September. The broader public's release is scheduled for March 2025, likely around International Women's Day.

A few practical updates/asks:

1. If you have moved house, country, or continent in the past two years, please use this form and share your new address so we can ensure we ship your book(s) to the correct address.
2. For the people living in the Netherlands, mark your calendars! We are hosting an in-person "boekborrel" on August 31st between 16.00 and 18.00 at Gerecht 1 in Leiden, the Netherlands. You can pick up your book copies in August and celebrate with us! Please let us know by replying to this email if you will attend!
3. We hope to count on you as our book ambassadors! The best way to support the next stage of our book journey is if you enjoyed reading the book:
   • Encourage your friends, family, and colleagues to order online copies of the book on Amazon - once we have 300 book orders on Amazon, our book will be sold at the Barnes and Noble bookstores in the US
   • Let us know if you have any ideas for book presentations and/or sales to larger institution
   • Help us get the word out between now and March 2025 to ensure a successful official launch in New York at Barnes and Noble

Warm regards and we hope to welcome many of you at the end of August, 
Marijn, Chantal, Lidewij and Tessel
