Don’t mind me just sitting here anxiously awaiting updates on Vol. 9…😅 A friend recommended these and I burned through the whole series in one week! I need more! 😆 It’ll be worth the wait though—this series has been the most wonderful reading adventure.

Haha! Welcome. We're so glad you've found us here in St. Crispian's. It is a wonderful place to pass the time.

I did the same thing reading two books a day! I never do that! Then I read The Q. Now I’m reading the books again slower and in paperback so I can underline.

I just reread all of your books. I have loved every single one for different reasons!

Looking forward to volume 9!

Sarah,

So happy to have you in the club! Could I ask a favor? I'm trying to figure out if there is any print house still sending out The 193 Club copies or if these are simply the final copies finding their way into the world. Would you be willing to message back the date of printing and location of printing in the back of the book? I would every appreciate it.

Cheers,

Beth

I’m sad to say that I have a perfectly ordinary copy of Emma 8. Well.

Lol! I'm sad for you but from my end this is what I want to hear! Ha! When did yours arrive?

Ordered Dec 1 and arrived Dec 6! As an author, I’m so glad it’s mostly all sorted out for you and that you turned it into something fun for us.

I received a lovely email back and look forward to receiving my bookplate in January. I hardly feel worthy as I have only known and loved Emma and her world since October. But I'm delighted to be a member of the club!

It really was an incredibly Emma way to handle the printing error! I love it and am so so thrilled to be a member of the 193 Club - can't wait for my bookplate!

Did the bookplates ever go out? Possibly mine ended up at the Keep?! Hope not.

Send an email to contact@rhysonpress.com and ask if your email was received. We can check the tracking and make sure you get a bookplate if yours got lost. Cheers!

I just found out that this is a thing! Is it too late to send the email showing my book as part of the 193 club?

Beth Brower's avatar

He Shanna! Of course you can still get a book plate, just follow the instructions in the post. Out of curiosity, on the back pages of your book it has the location and date of printing. Could you let me know what those are?

Did I miss the second December St. Crispian's Gazette? I saw "Dot" which was cute and I loved. 🥰 But my Substack app has been a bit glitchy lately and I want to be sure I didn't miss it. 🫠

I'm in the 193 Club! Mine was printed 12/5/24 in Troutdale, OR. I also have a funny page cutting error on page 171 (it's a big flap folded into the book). I am LOVING Emna 8!!
