Hell, Troutnation! You’re not having deja vu, this is the same post as yesterday! I just wanted to add stuff to it, and I didn’t want anyone to miss it.
You can now pre-order the digital version of The Girlfriend on Smashwords. Since I announced that on twitter last night, I’ve had a slew of questions about whether or not it will be available on Amazon or Barnes & Noble. It will definitely be available on Amazon, but I don’t have the option of a pre-order on Amazon. So, you’ll be able to buy it via your Kindle on August 20th. It will be offered on Barnes & Noble, Sony, iTunes, etc. through Smashwords, but I’m not sure what date those third-party retailers will have it available.
Oh, hey… did I mention that there are like SIXTY PAGES OF PREVIEW AVAILABLE AT THE SMASHWORDS LINK? The sample is downloadable. You get about three chapters. THREE CHAPTERS, Y’ALL.
If you were planning to order The Girlfriend as a paperback, now is the time! I opened orders for the paperback version a little early, so readers who wanted it could get it as close to the release of the ebook as possible. No, you probably wouldn’t be able to order this and get it before the 20th. I tested, to make sure. I mean, unless you wanted to pay like, eighty dollars worth of shipping, which would be insane, so don’t do that. Just send me the eighty bucks instead and go sit in a corner and think about your financial priorities.
So, if you’re itching to order your copy, you can do so here.
I’m really really sorry if you answered this already somewhere else, but will the book be released chapter by chapter as The Boss was?
Nope, this is just releasing as an ebook and paperback through the usual suspects. 😀
Since I know your cost is less, could I pay you to buy it so you get a larger cut of the price?
That sounds like too much math. You can just stuff dollars into my bra while I read the book aloud.
I would totally do that. I bet you read aloud in an awesome way too 🙂
I am so very, very excited. I have to order it straight away because it will take a long time to reach me in Australia.
I do hope it’s getable there, I’m not sure how The Bookpatch works with international shipping and stuff.
Hi Jenny, just a quick question: will it be (or could it be) released in PDF form? I don’t have an e-reader, but I would really like to read it on my computer. Of course, I’d pay the same as the e-book, and hopefully you’d pocket most of the purchase price when it’s electronic? Anyway, just a thought. Thanks for doing this, really looking forward to reading it! 🙂
Yup, that’s one of the formats it will be released in!
Ahhhh I’m ordering mine as soon as I get home from work!!
[…] The Girlfriend is available to pre-order!. […]
Ooooh … just blazed through the 62 page ‘sample’! You really know how to twist a girl’s arm and FORCE her to buy your books 🙂 Looking forward to it!
I just read the first 62 pages too and loving it so far! (not that I had any doubts that I would) Definitely have to purchase it, I think your download price is incredibly reasonable. I think I will wait until the weekend though, I have things I need to get done around here and if I have that tempting me, they won’t get done!
Sad that some people get to read it early and I’m not one of them 🙁
Would have been perfect to read at the beach today *sigh*
Okay, I finished and loved The Girlfriend. How long do I have to wait for the next one, Jennnnnyyyyyyyyyy?!?! I’m already dying to know what happens with Sophie and Neal. What have done to bewitch me with this story?
