Pre-Order Bonuses!

It's not too late to get your bonuses.

The Kids Are All Right Launches Today!

Today is book launch day! If you pre-ordered, The Kids Are All Right should be landing on your doorstep. I hope you love it!

It’s almost two years to the day of my previous book. And this launch day feels so different than the last one. Partly because the topic are so unrelated (hahaha). Partly because I have a co-author this time! And partly because I feel much more vulnerable about this book (which I talked about earlier).

But some things are the same:
-I love picturing you opening up the book for the first time — and I hope you love the book design (by the amazing Bonnie Siegler) as much as I do.
-I appreciate seeing your posts about the book on social media. I love re-sharing them in my IG stories and reading your initial thoughts on the book.
-It’s amazing to see your photos of the book — to see it in your hands, or on your favorite reading chair, or in your house.
-I’m endlessly grateful for your reviews! Getting 100+ reviews during the first week is ideal for a new book (if you have a minute to write a quick review that would be wonderful — and it does not need to be fancy).
-The best part is hearing that you found our words and ideas helpful. If this book can help relieve the anxiety of parents in any way, that is all I want.

Some Book & Bonus Q&A

I pre-ordered months ago, can I still get the bonuses?

You sure can! Head to the bonus page to claim your bonuses.

I didn’t pre-order, but I’m ordering today. Can I still get the bonuses?

Yes! Any book orders for The Kids Are All Right that happen before next Tuesday, October 22nd qualify for the pre-order bonuses. After you order, head to the bonus page to claim your bonuses.

I’m already a paid newsletter subscriber. Do I still get 30-days free?

Yes! I checked with Substack and they told me: This 30-days free offer will extend your current subscription by a month, so you won't be billed again until the end of that period. 

What is the Blair Discussion Group?

It’s something new! I’ve been participating in the SharonSaysSo book club, and love and admire what she’s built. I’ve been craving something similar for this community — but focused on all the topics I write about and share (things like parenting, living abroad, renovation, design, family updates, current events, books and articles I’m reading, travel, aging, building a family culture, etc.). So we’re working on a Blair Discussion Group.

We’re planning a one-month program in November so we can see what works best — what you love, and what you want more of. And then, if people are into it, we can launch a full year program in January.

Watch for more details on this new group in an upcoming newsletter.

Will there be a book tour?

We are working on some events that will happen in the spring! We will keep you updated.

If I can’t pre-order at the moment, is there anything else I can do?

Yes! You can request the book at your library. And you can tell people about the book.

I want to support the book — what would be helpful?

Positive reviews are SO helpful! You can keep it simple (“loved the book!”), or write something longer if inspiration hits. As you know if you’ve ever shopped online, reading positive reviews about a book really helps people make decisions on whether or not they would enjoy the book or find it worthwhile.

Thank you for the support. I’m truly grateful. Putting this book out into the world took many years and feels like a BIG DEAL. And we couldn’t have done it without this amazing community. Thank you. I mean it. Thank you.

kisses,
