@gregeganSF Ordered!

@gregeganSF Hurray, something to look forward to! If I may ask, do preorders have a big impact with your publishing model? Increasingly we see authors desperate for preorders to boost visibility, but I don’t know whether you’ve seen similar effects.

@csk It does help a bit.

@gregeganSF Done! I'll make sure not to stare at the eclipse for too long, so that I can still read it. (Though I might end up re-reading A Fire Upon the Deep first...)

@gregeganSF
Good luck, but what is this vapid term ‘ptrordering’? You can order anything, in production or not 👎🏻

@Wen Preordering is a thing. It's part of the event, and part of the excitement and anticipation of publication. I can't even figure out what you are trying to say with your second sentence. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pre-order

@theohonohan
But I’m surprised you don’t understand the simple sentence. The pre is redundant.

@theohonohan preordering is made up marketing flibery gibberish.
