G'day all,
Firstly I'd just like to say that the recovery is continuing nicely. I've been working on an exclusive side story for the hardcover release, which has gone slower than my old writing speed, but I finished the first draft literally minutes ago. It's set before the first book and details the first meeting of Rufus, Gary and Farrah.
Barnes & Noble will be doing an early release of the hardcover, a full two months ahead of other venues, so anyone looking to get their hands on the book as soon as possible may want to do their pre-order through them.
Not much else to say, other than I am very happy to have completed some fresh writing. I'm looking to keep that going through December and hope to get fresh chapters coming out in January.

Any news on merch? I’m looking to buy some posters for my favorite litrpgs and for HWFWM I’d prefer something different than the one on podium site. Thanks!

Used to work at B&N. That's going to depend on how many people pre-order it. That said, you can go into a store and pre-order it "shipped to store" and won't have to pay shipping. This also helps your local store as it shows people shopping in the store.

I have to ask as it has been a constant in every book release. Why did you change the title?

Is the B&N one for books being mailed only or will it be in their brick and mortar stores?
