    My Fairy Tale slipcase arrived yesterday, and it is beautiful.  I can't find the actual book that goes with it (it's in the library somewhere . . .) but I'm sure it'll look great.

    The only knock I have is that I can't afford to spend $60+ on a slipcase every time. It's going to get expensive FAST.  But saying that, the one from Lividian is worth every dollar it cost.  It's a stunning production.

    Just received my Fairy Tale slipcase. It's awesome! More than I was hoping for really. As previously stated, it fits the Simon & Schuster special edition perfectly. So happy Lividian decided to make this slipcase as I still feel a bit tricked by Simon & Schuster for not including a slipcase with their special edition. I know I'll never fall for "printed case" in a description again. Thanks again Lividian!!!

    Very glad I picked up Lividian's edition of THE STORE. I already had a signed UK 1st HC of it, so had skipped it for a while, but was finally lured by a sweet deal. I should've known better than to hesitate...Lividian's production is really top-notch. A few pics here:

    The new chapbook for Patreon supporters on the $5 tier and higher will begin shipping in a few weeks (you can still join today and qualify!), and I'm pleased to report this one represents the next evolution of our Patreon chapbook program.

    The envelopes that "house" the chapbook will now feature custom artwork printed in silver metallic ink. This is the same style of art as our designer would create for the foil stamping for a Limited Edition book: IMG_4206-1024x768.jpg

    The "Doing Dirty Work" chapbook will be perfect bound (not stapled), printed in full color throughout, and features terrific original color cover AND color interior artwork by François Vaillancourt. I'll show off more of that art on my Patreon in the coming weeks.

    More news soon!

    Just got mine and the special edition from Scribner fits absolutely perfectly.

    Kudos to Lividian for the entire process from pre-order to payment to delivery.

    2 thumbs up and I'm a very happy customer.

The only negative, and it really is not a negative, is that the cover image for the UK edition does not fit with the cut out.

    I will also add that Mr. Freeman continues to under-promise and over-deliver with his Patreon!

    Wow, these pictures look great. Makes me even more excited to receive mine, which should arrive this weekend! Don't know how Lividian is able to turn their slipcases out so quickly when it feels like it takes other publishers forever! Kudos to Lividian & their slipcase makers!!!

    If the title was not visible it would be great. The image is actually a perfect fit.

    The custom slipcase for FAIRY TALE will be shipping in a few weeks! This slipcase has been tested on the Simon & Schuster 1st printing hardcover (both USA and Italy printed) and the Simon & Schuster Limited Edition, and the fits are good. All other editions (like Non-US editions) are untested.

    Payment request emails will be sent out TOMORROW, Tuesday, March 14. If you preordered directly from Lividian and do not receive the email by early afternoon (New York time), please let me know. (Paying ASAP will really help us ship these more efficiently, thank you!)

    Also, here is a general update on my Patreon rewards for the rest of the year:

    Our deluxe signed, numbered, and slipcased Limited Edition hardcover of The Store by Bentley Little has started shipping. Please note: we might print your paperwork (label and packing slip) a few days before we can actually pack your book due to how we have to handle the numbering and organizing of the books. Don't panic if your label prints on Saturday but doesn't show any tracking on Monday or Tuesday, etc. It will take us through next week to pack and ship all of the orders, but we are moving as quickly as we can. If you have ANY questions or concerns, please reach out to me: [email protected]

    We'll begin packing direct orders this weekend and hopefully finish up by the end of next week, which is when retailers will be packed and shipped.

    We'll start printing orders and shipping labels in batches tonight or tomorrow, but nothing will actually go out the door until Monday because there's a lot of organizing to do to match up people's numbers, etc.
