Let's Try This Again!

We fixed the SwH Book Club in a Box link :)

Good morning! Hello! Happy Saturday!

(I’m sending another email out because our link was misbehaving. This one should work! Onward…)

I’m here with a fun little update. As always, I wanted you to be the first to know.

My rad publisher, Revell, is offering a limited supply of Start with Hello Book Club in a Box sets. All you need to do is get your hands on a copy of the book and find a few friends to read it with you. We’ve got the rest covered - and it’s free!

Each box includes:

• Personal note from moi

• Printed SwH discussion guide

• Eight autographed plate books

• Eight printed “Neighbor’s Blessing” cards with QR code

• Eight printed Amanda Evanston SwH art prints with QR code

• One set of custom vinyl SwH stickers

• One soy Wicks & Wax exclusive Hello Cozy candle, hand-poured (and named) by Silas Park Martin (my 14yo son) just for you, to help set the vibe for your book club

• You’ll also be entered into a drawing for me to join one winner virtually for one book club meeting.

(Pausing to belabor the point that books are not included.)

Let’s Get Moving!

This is a limited quantity situation, and it’s a first-come, first-served basis. So get your ducks in a row and let’s do this.

Gather some friends, your church group, or round up some neighbors.

Get your books. (You’ll receive a 40% off discount code to buy Start with Hello (with free shipping) from Baker Book House.)

Most importantly, click here to fill out the form.

Boxes will ship in early February! (Continental US states only, please)

It’s an absolute delight to hear how Start with Hello is moving readers toward community and giving them a fresh vision for what connection really can look like.

Here’s a DM I received from a reader just this week:

“I purchased your book on a whim after listening to you on a podcast. I don’t know what I expected, but without being too dramatic, you have changed my life. I have highlighted, dog-eared, and even made my husband pause what he was doing so I could read paragraphs out loud to him. I have smiled, laughed, pondered, and cried. Your words are potent, your lived experiences are inspiring. Thank you for showing up and sharing your heart with the world.”

It’s the wildest thing, to feel so sure of something then watch it catch hold and take root. Thank you for being on this ride with me.

Now go snap up these free book club boxes! And please, TELL ME EVERYTHING about how your book club goes.

One last chance to get started… (just click the green box)

Love + (winter) sunshine,
