Hi all!
​
Thanks again for your willingness to help me spread the word about Escape to Play!
​
There is no pressure to post everything. If you can retweet with a comment, share on Facebook or Instagram that would be fabulous as I post about the book!
​
If you are able to do more, that is wonderful! I have created some ideas below and the date to post. I want to make sure that there isn't too much activity going to the page before the launch date so when February 9th happens, they can order right then.
​
Again, if you want to review the book with me on Zoom, before Feb 9th (or after, too), I will be available at your convenience. Please email me! (<--- click to email)
​
Being part of the "Launch Team" just means you help get the word out as you are able. I am so grateful for any help, especially on February 9th (LAUNCH DAY!) The more orders on day 1 the better for visibility on Kickstarter! Thank you all so much for the love and support!
​
Becky Gehrisch
