I want to first, thank
for taking over the reigns and helping me put together this week’s issue.As we transition into December, there will be Mondays where other emails will be sent out and therefore our regular weekly emails will move to Tuesdays [December 9th / 16th / 23rd / 30th].
DECEMBER EMAILS AND EVENTS
December 8th - COVER REVEAL! I’m finally going to peel back the curtain on the cover for Eye See You and introduce you to the artist behind the cover. I’ll even share a few of the other designs that we didn’t choose and share how I went about making the final decision.
December 15th - Meet the Writers! Another Eye See You reveal is coming. I’ll share the Table of Contents followed by answers to some very important questions I asked each of the participants. It’ll be sent out in groups every couple of days through the rest of 2025.
December 22nd - It’s beginning to really feel like Christmas because, today is the day when ALL WILL BE REVEALED! Not only will 24 stories drop at 10am EST but I will be on Live to tell reveal who each story is “gifted” to based on the plots that were swapped! Don’t worry if you miss it! The VOD as well as the full list of stories will be sent via email later this same day.
December 29th - An explanation about our decision to turn on Paid Subscriptions at Top in Fiction. Nothing is going behind a paywall but with our continued efforts to pay for great work and TiF Press as well, we want to give everyone who can afford it an opportunity to support on a more regular basis.
