EXHAUSTIVELY IS BACK!
(𝐵𝑒𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑎 𝑆𝑡𝑜𝑟𝑦 𝑊𝘩𝑖𝑐𝘩 𝐼𝑛𝑣𝑜𝑙𝑣𝑒𝑠 𝐹𝑜𝑜𝑑, 𝑆𝑜𝑚𝑒 𝑇𝘩𝑜𝑢𝑔𝘩𝑡, 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑎 𝑆𝑖𝑛𝑔𝑙𝑒 𝐸𝑚𝑏𝑟𝑎𝑐𝑒)
She’s not doing well on her own–that much is clear. So she summons a golem (as one does) and expects him to keep house for her while she pulls her grades up. She doesn’t expect him to have opinions of his own. She doesn’t expect him to help anywhere else. And she definitely doesn’t expect him to speed-stack. Personalities clash and families realign in this quiet college slice-of-life.
Just in time for the school year! Everyone's favorite slice-of-life novelette (~10K words) about a girl and her golem is back, newly re-edited in honor & upon request of a beloved Darling Patron @goose-books! Thank you so much to everyone who ordered the special physical edition; please enjoy its digital companion free for everyone.

i dont know who needs to hear this but you do not need to go on a diet. you do not need to lose weight as a new year revolution. you do not need to feel shame for gaining any weight over the holidays and for enjoying yourself and the food. you do not need to tolerate diet talk after setting a boundary and if someone cant respect that then theyre being the asshole. you already have a summer body. you already are hot. theres no moral failure or shame in being fat

Exhaustively is going to print!
The story of a girl and her golem. Both agree she’s not doing well on her own, but the golem has his own ideas on how best to help her–not that she’s willing to hear them. A slice-of-life about family, college, magic, and speed-stacking.
I will be printing a select few limited edition bound copies of Exhaustively, newly re-edited, and shipping them within the United States based on interest. Each book will cost a flat fee of $13, which will cover a copy with shipping throughout the US. I am happy to sign, personalize, inscribe, and/or doodle in each copy for you.
Interest check available until 7/31/22, at which point I'll DM everyone. You can also DM, Discord, email, etc. to ensure a copy now, and I'll ship as soon as I have them in.
More info (pricing transparency) below the cut!
I'm not doing this to turn a profit, but I can't afford to lose money on making funky limited edition souvenirs, hence the pricing. I will inherently take the hit on the proofs, and theoretically lose money on the time spent, but hey that's writing. I clarify this because Something's Not Right, my published book, is $10! You'll see in the pricing that a substantial amount of this is the middleman situation where I ship to myself and then ship to you, because the book will only have a limited release.
Math: Shipping 10 books from Lulu to me costs $13.44 for shipping and $3.83 per book. Shipping one book from my state across the country costs roughly $3.25, while individual bubble mailers for each book will cost $1.79 each at my local post office. An individual book thus works out to ~$10.22, assuming nothing goes wrong.
If you want multiple copies, I'm happy to slice US shipping off the price of the extras and make all but your first copy $10! Same goes if you're ordering just one copy but want it in person (and, of course, that is physically possible).
If you want to support me you are welcome to pay more, tip, buy my collection of short stories, go to Ko-Fi or Patreon, or just toss me a reblog! Also you are wonderful. Ask me absolutely any questions you like through asks/DMs/email, and I hope you enjoy!
EDIT: Estimated shipping date right now will be end of August, so please wait up for more updates on that! If the shipping date moves into September, I will individually message everybody who has ordered with that update; otherwise, general updates continue to go here.
Also, if you're international and you want the book anyhow... please ask! The only issue is expense, so if you're willing to pay crazy money for shipping, I'm happy to do it. It's just probably going to be crazy money is all.
EDIT 2: As of 8/31/22, if you want a copy of Exhaustively, please DM me. I'll make up a list of people interested after the initial date, and when I hit 10, I'll DM you all again (no pressure to say yes the second time) and do another printing. This is simply not guaranteed or linear.
EDIT 3: As of 10/31/22, we are done with this round of Exhaustively shipments! Thank you so much to everyone who tipped; you made it possible to donate multiple copies and still come out with an extra $100 to donate to charity during my upcoming OHHOW stream.
