SIX DAYS TO LAUNCH! Jennifer Nielsen September 25, 2020

SIX DAYS TO LAUNCH!

Today’s Friday Freebie is the first opportunity to win one of the super amazing giveaways at the Launch Party for THE CAPTIVE KINGDOM. I’m not kidding – these are big.

Here’s what you need to know for the Launch Party:

DATE: Oct 1, 2020

TIME:  6 pm (NOTE THE NEW TIME!)

LINK:  Register to join HERE.

What will happen during the Launch Party?

Honestly, I don’t entirely know. I’ve never done an online launch. So if there is something specific you want to have happen, let me know! I do know that the launch will include:

A debut of the book trailer

Q & A – so bring your questions!

Updates on my current projects

And some giveaways, which include choices of:

An advanced reader’s copy of RESCUE, my historical to be released this March.

A signed, first edition of THE SCORCH TRIALS, from the Maze Runner series by James Dashner.

A signed, first edition of THE FIFTH WAVE, by Rick Yancy.

A signed, first edition of DIARY OF A WIMPY KID: THE LONG HAUL by Jeff Kinney.

A signed, first edition of TURTLES ALL THE WAY DOWN by John Green.

A signed copy of AMULET by Kazu Kibuishi

A signed, first edition of THE GENTLEMAN’S GUIDE TO VICE AND VIRTUE by MacKenzie Lee.

A signed, first edition of THE TRIALS OF APOLLO by Rick Riordan

A $20 gift card to The King’s English Bookstore

An advanced copy of book 5 of the Ascendance series, when it is available.

The event is free. You do not have to purchase a copy of THE CAPTIVE KINGDOM to participate; however, for those who do get a copy (or purchase any of my books from The King’s English Bookshop before October 8), you will receive:

  • An automatic entry to win an advanced copy of Book 5.
  • A swag pack including some original art for book 4.
  • An autograph in your book.

NOTE: If you want the book autographed, at the very bottom of the checkout section it says: “ORDER COMMENTS.” That is the place for you to request the autograph. Tell them who you want it signed to, or if you want a signature only. 

BUT…today is Freebie Friday. What can I win?

    Hi Mrs Nielsen! I ordered my book from Kings English but I didn’t specify who to make it out to in the comments. How can I make sure it’s to me?

      Reply to the confirmation email they sent you and specify who you want the book made out to.

    I shared on Facebook, and I preordered Captive Kingdom from King’s English. So excited 🙂 As for book launch ideas, I’ve never been to an in person or virtual one. I think it might be fun to see some of the fan entries from the big contest, Q&A, a quick finish this story game, or trivia.

    I can’t wait for the launch party!!!!! It will be the highlight of my week I’m sure.
    I’m not sure what should happen at an online launch party, either, since I’ve never been to one. So this will be new and exciting for me, too. 😉

    I am so excited for the launch party! My insides feel like they’re jumping up and down. Mrs. Nielsen, I was wondering if it’s okay if I share this on my blog?

    If we purchase more than one of your books from The King’s English Bookshop can we have all of them signed or just one?

      September 26, 2020, 12:47 am

      I will sign everything.

      • Reply
        September 27, 2020, 4:30 am

        Would you sign something other than a book? I order the book already, but it would be kind of neat to have a bookmark with your signature. Would that be possible?

    Hi, Jennifer! I ordered “The Captive Kingdom” from the King’s English (can’t wait!) but I didn’t know you had to add your name/signing request in the notes. Is there a way I can contact them or you to add the info? Thank you.

      You can call them from the website, or send me an email with the name of how you want it signed (jen@jennielsen.com)

        I emailed them, so I think they have it now. I’ll email you too, just in case. Thank you so much!

    How do we get our hands on the Hardcover copy of The Runaway King? The King’s English Bookshop doesn’t have it and I really wanted to get a copy signed by you. It’s my favorite book of the series thus far.

    I already ordered book 4, but I left the order comments empty. Will it still be autographed?

      Send me an email to remind me and I’ll be sure to sign it properly. (Jen@jennielsen.com)

    I’m super excited for the launch! One question though: what time does it start EST? this blog says 6, but crowdcast is telling me it’s 8. thanks!

    Hi! What is the difference between “Signed to” and “only signed”? I am pretty confused.

    • Reply
      October 2, 2020, 1:27 pm

      Signed to is if you want your name in the book. Only signed means all I do is put my signature in it but I don’t add your name.

    Will those who preordered “The Captive Kingdom” from Amazon still receive the artwork?

    • Reply
      October 3, 2020, 1:28 pm

      I will send out whatever extras I have afterward. Send me an email (jen@jennielsen.com) so that I know to send you something if I can.

    I ordered your book about a month ago for TABC. Can I get that copy personalized, or is it too late?

    • Reply
      September 29, 2020, 8:24 pm

      No, you can still get it personalized. Send me an email (jen@jennielsen.com) with your full name and how you want it to be signed, and I’ll try to take care of it when I go in to sign the books next week.

    I am sooooo exited for The Captive Kingdom to come out! I can’t wait! I’m also super exited for the launch party. Thank you for writing such a fantastic series. You’re my favorite author!
    In the launch party you could talk about the 5th book. 🙂 The 4th hasn’t even come out but I can’t wait for the 5th!
    You should definitely talk about the 4th Ascendence book in your launch party.

      For your launch party you could read the first chapter of The Captive Kingdom!

    I preordered the fourth book (of which I am so excited to read) at a TABC webinar a couple months ago. Am I still eligible for the Advanced copy of the fifth?

    I’m so excited to get my copy but I preordered it from the English Bookshop a few weeks early and I still didn’t get it, do you know when I might receive it?
