GWS Compendiums available TODAY and TOMORROW ONLY!!
Added 2023-07-11 18:46:08 +0000 UTCI just realized today is Prime Day, which always rustles my feathers because I make $0 for every book of mine that's sold on Amazon! As do a lot of my peers.
Out of spite for Amazon, I'm opening my store for the first time in 7 months, JUST today and tomorrow. If you don't own a copy of The Complete GWS* yet, and you'd like to, this is a good time to order them! Actually it might be the only time to order them, at least from me. It's definitely the only way to get personalized bookplates! (I'll sign them out to you/your giftee and draw two of your favorite GWS characters!)
If you're a paying patron, I'm kickin in:
- FREE BOOKPLATES. ($20 value!!) Just follow these instructions.
- All $5 patrons: Click here for a $5 off coupon code (enter at checkout)!
- LOCALS: If you'd like to pick up locally, type LOCAL at checkout and it'll waive the shipping fee; we'll work out a pickup afterwards.
And for anyone else's books you'd like to buy, try this:
- Look up the author to see if they sell their books personally.
- If not, try their publisher, and if that doesn't work...
- call your favorite local bookstore, and ask them to order the book. Instead of free shipping, you get a free excuse to peruse your favorite bookstore when you go to pick up your book! And you get to know that you helped support a bookstore and a publisher (and probably an author as well).
Thanks for reading this far! Amazon is a necessary evil for a lot of publishers, but if you put in a little effort you can send your money to the people you want to keep afloat. And if you're their patron and they love you, you can also reap the benefits of coupon codes. ;)
*YES, these books compile the entire 2,008 strips of Girls With Slingshots! Plus a bunch of bonus strips and extra bonus material in the back, including photo references of places in Shepherdstown that show up in the strip... which ultimately are places that show up in Elephant Town.

They are gorgeous books

2023-07-12 23:34:15 +0000 UTCAll bookstores, but that has to do with my publisher, not bookstores! It's a long story. :\

2023-07-12 13:32:30 +0000 UTCIs it only Amazon that you get $0 from or all bookstores?

2023-07-12 04:01:28 +0000 UTCYou are a SOLID FUCKIN HUMAN, thank you for letting me know! I mean that's really my own fuckup, so I'll just see what I can do about erasing that preview. Thanks!

2023-07-12 02:51:33 +0000 UTCOrder placed! Thanks for opening this up, Danielle! Side note, Patreon reveals the $5 off coupon code for ANYONE who views that post for $5 tier patrons; the whole post is locked, but the code is part of Patreon's preview of the post. It doesn't seem fair to use it, but if you want to close that loophole, there it is.

2023-07-11 20:58:46 +0000 UTCOh that's so cool, I didn't know that! Thank you!
Danielle Corsetto
2023-07-11 20:19:23 +0000 UTCOh, always. That has more to do with a my publisher, but I'm not ready to get into that publicly.

2023-07-11 20:19:04 +0000 UTCWe purchase our books from local independents, direct from authors/creators, or on Bookshop.org. ALL THE SUPPORT! 💙 Bookshop.org also has free shipping during PD every year, so if you're looking for a book you can't find from the author.... AND you can choose a local bookstore to get a portion (30%, I think) of your purchase. Win/win!

2023-07-11 20:09:27 +0000 UTCYou get 0 dollars on just prime day or is that always? How does that work?

2023-07-11 19:59:11 +0000 UTCI cherish my copies! And I so get your feelings about Amazon. I have a similar stance with services like Spotify, who pay artists fractions of pennies for the music they make -- bullies on the block. Bandcamp and private downloads all the way!

2023-07-11 19:49:40 +0000 UTCI knooow it breaks my heart too!! (And the shipping fees break everyone's wallets, bluh!)
Danielle Corsetto
2023-07-11 19:42:10 +0000 UTCNo delivery to the UK 🙁 (Not that I can really justify spending that much, but still … *wants* 🙂)
Pete Jordan
2023-07-11 19:39:54 +0000 UTCOn that note, if you wouldn't mind, would you shoot me an email at dcorsetto@gmail.com and mention which country you'd like me to ship your books to? I've got a small folder of international requests that I'll contact all at once when I'm ready to start shipping overseas again. Thanks for your patience with me!
Danielle Corsetto
2023-07-11 19:38:39 +0000 UTCOh I COMPLETELY forgot about this, I'm sorry Alexandru! International takes a long time for me to process, and I can't offer them at this time. If I do in the future, I will absolutely make an announcement here! And thank you, I'll alter that notification asap!
Danielle Corsetto
2023-07-11 19:37:01 +0000 UTCIs this available for European readers as well? I hesitated for a long time about buying it, because it says "This listing only ships within the US at this time! If you'd like these shipped internationally, get in touch with me and I'll let you know when I open international sales!"

2023-07-11 19:34:21 +0000 UTCI got mine during the Kickstarter, and I am so glad I did. Anyone who's on the fence: if you can afford it, go for it! It's such a lovely book, though it is a workout to hold — these books could seriously give a Klingon a concussion! I've read them cover to cover a couple times now, and it was so nice to re-experience GWS this way. <3
