The Audiobook We’ve ALL Been Waiting For! Plus a Surprise Product Drop!

The time has FINALLY arrived, Whimsies! The book that started it all – Charting Stars – is an audiobook!

Narrated by the talented Lauren Amanda, it is available for purchase NOW through Audible! And we suggest saving your membership credits because it’s currently on sale for less than $10! So snag it quick! We have no idea how long this sale will last.

If you’d like to apply for a free review copy, head over to NetGalley and request one. We can’t give a copy to everyone (I know, I know, we really wish we could!), but if you’re lucky, you might get approved!

Either way, once you’ve listened, we would absolutely love your feedback! Reviews are welcome and appreciated on Amazon/Audible, Goodreads, or anywhere else you feel like sharing.

We hope you are just as excited as we are about this news. And we haven’t forgotten we promised you a surprise!


That’s right, friends, starting tomorrow, we are offering a new and unique piece of Whimsical merch every day until December 17th!

Each day, we will launch a new product featuring Whimsical artwork. Products range from household use, wearables, decorations, and more! A sneak peek is below, but make sure to follow our Instagram for each daily product drop!

These will only be available for preorder on our website, and once the event concludes on the 17th, we will order your items to be sent directly to you from the manufacturers. Please note these will NOT arrive in time for Christmas.

Questions? Feel free to message us on our Instagram or just reply to this email. We love hearing from our whimsies!

BIG SHOP NEWS!!! Plus lots of exciting news!

Due to some changes with the Canadian and US governments, we’ve made the decision to change all the prices in the shop (including shipping prices) to US Dollars. Since all shop orders ship from the US, this just made the most sense for the future of Whimsical.

What does this mean for you? Well, if you’re in the US, that means no more mental calculations of trying to figure out how much your order will be before PayPal converts it! What you see is what you’ll pay.

If you’re outside the United States, PayPal will automatically convert your total to your currency at checkout. If you are a UK customer, the conversion rate will still work out in your favor. For our Canadian customers, we’re sorry to do this, but it was just one of those necessary changes we needed to make for the business. We hope you understand and will continue to shop with us.

Now, on to more exciting things!


…Like a title reveal!

The Arrow & The Alder
by Barbara kloss

The Arrow & The Alder is a classic, adult romantic fantasy (with YA cross-over appeal). This enemies to lovers tale features a rebel huntress, a fugitive prince, and a curse that will consume their worlds.

NEW PRODUCT ALERT

While Micheline was taking time off back in December, she was going through old files on her computer and came across a folder full of coloring pages she’d created over the years. Rather than let them continue to sit there and age, she decided to publish them!

Colorful pencils and blackboard for copy space. School and education template

Inside this 8×10″ coloring book, you’ll find 50 single-sided illustrations that will take you on a whimsical artistic journey through lush forests and florals, critters galore, and introduce you to a host of extraordinary characters!

This book is now available in our shop and on Amazon.


Numina Parables Fans, this one’s for you!

 

In case you missed it, book 3 of the Numina Parables is coming! In preparation, McKenzie and Micheline put their heads together and decided to rebrand the existing two books to make them a bit more cohesive.

Don’t panic!! The only change made was to the exclusive design underneath the dust jacket.

The new versions feature the amazing artwork of each book’s antagonist! Grab your copies today, exclusively available from our shop!
