There’s something surreal about this moment—something that makes my breath catch a little in my chest. I’ve held this book in my heart for years, sculpted every word, every chapter, every fragile piece of character and world and emotion with the kind of care usually reserved for things far more delicate than paper and ink. But now… Marked by Fate is ready to meet the world in a real, tangible way.
Because as of right now, physical pre-orders are officially live.
That’s right—you can now reserve your very own copy of the paperback or hardcover edition of Marked by Fate.
The Book in Your Hands (Finally)
Maybe you’re like me and there’s just something about holding a real book that hits different. The weight of it, the smell of the pages, the way your fingers settle into the spine as if the story’s been waiting for you all along. That’s what this is. This is me handing you something I’ve bled into. And now, you get to hold it.
You can pre-order directly through my website—quick and easy. It can be shipped straight to your door, or, if you’re local, I can hand it to you in person at the launch party on Saturday, May 17, 2025.
(I might cry. Just warning you.)
Here’s What You Can Pre-Order:
📚 Paperback or Hardcover (Standard Edition): Just the book, plain and simple—beautiful and ready to be read.
✍️ Signed Paperback or Hardcover (Premium Edition): Includes a signed copy + an exclusive, collectible bookmark you can only get through this preorder.
🗓 Local Pickup or Shipping Available: Pick it up at the launch party or have it shipped to arrive by release day—May 24, 2025.
I Might Be Tearing Up As I Write This Post
I know I say this often, but I genuinely mean it every single time: this book wouldn’t be here without you. Without your encouragement, your curiosity, your comments, your shares, your kind words in the middle of sleepless nights where I second-guessed everything. This pre-order milestone—it’s yours too. You’ve been part of this story long before it had a cover.
And now, you get to be part of the next step towards the moment it leaves my hands and enters yours. So here it is, this next giant step made real. If you’ve been waiting to reserve yourself a physical copy of Marked by Fate—your time has come.
