Dear Artist Books Will Ship 12-3

This week, my studio has transformed into what I can only describe as organized chaos with a sprinkle of heartfelt gratitude. Picture me surrounded by a sea of books, pens, stickers, and carefully chosen goodies, all while trying not to get lost in a bubble mailer vortex. Why? Because it’s time to send Dear Artist, Don’t Give Up on its journey to your hands, and I couldn’t be more excited!

Signing books isn’t just me scribbling my name in an attempt to look fancy. Oh no, it’s a full-blown ritual. I carefully open each book, pen in hand, and think about the person who’s about to receive it. Some of your names I’ve seen before—familiar friends who’ve cheered us on over the years. Others are new, fresh names, part of this wild, rogue adventure for the very first time. And the notes—oh my gosh, the notes you’ve left with your orders! Let me just say, you’ve had me laughing, crying, and occasionally double-checking I spelled “Rafi” correctly through the happy tears.

Now, let’s address the elephant (or should I say poster) in the room. Yes, the posters I ordered are stuck in the mysterious limbo of shipping purgatory. I’ve considered bribing the postal gods with coffee and cookies, but no dice. So instead, I’m including something else special for you. Because these books, with all their love, dedication, and rebellious rogue energy, need to get to you now. I refuse to let a postal delay hold them hostage!

Speaking of goodies, you should have received an email today with the subject line “Your Rafi and Klee Studios pre-order from (insert date here) is now available.” Inside, you’ll find a link to download the MP3 audiobook and a digital poster designed just for you by yours truly. If the email’s playing hide-and-seek, check your SPAM folder or reach out to us. We’ve got your back!

As for the physical goodies, they’ll be hitting the post office by Tuesday, December 3rd, like a rogue wave of creative energy. You’ll get a shipping email with a tracking number soon, so keep an eye out for that too. Until then, know that every signed book and carefully packed package carries a little piece of Klee and me. Your support is what keeps us going, creating, and believing in the power of this amazing creative community.

So thank you—yes, YOU—for being part of this incredible journey. We hope you love the book, the audiobook, and all the rogue surprises headed your way. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got a stack of dedications to write and more bubble mailers to wrestle.
