This especially applies to the Personalised Edition, as it turns out that Unbound recorded none of your details! What fun!

For everyone else, just know that it might take a little while for you to be replied to. With almost 6,000 copies to ship it's going to take time to clear up all the issues.

Admittedly I am feeling a bit overwhelmed with socials & burnt out creatively hence the no planned content for a bit. We still got a ways to go for the HRT fundraiser so posting the link here. We're at 26% so anything helps, this includes therapy costs too.

Anything helps:

I can confirm that Boundless has collapsed into administration. I'm going to spend the next few hours sifting through the rubble and seeing what's left.
I'll keep you posted.

My plan is to ship these signatures off to Unbound, but I can't promise that the books will ever be shipped from there. I hope they are. The Paradox Paradox is the most important piece of work in my life so far, and I'm dying for you all to read it.
I'll update more when I have it.

As for copies that you wonderful people are waiting on, I have no idea right now. I kept back the signed bookplates as communication leverage while I was wating for the written payment plan and now, I guess, I have one.

I have more horror stories to share, like the time my book was edited by some sort of automated software that broke all the paragraphing and took me hundreds of hours to manually fix, but now isn't the time. I'm going to lawyer up and see what we can pull from this wreckage.

It has great reviews, people are literally calling it the best sci-fi novel they've ever read, and I am so damn proud of it, but it's dead thanks to a Publisher that has decided it can acquire assets but not obligations.

Devastated doesn't even begin to explain how I feel.

So, it's not just my immediate finances they've obliterated, it's future earnings too. My debut novel, despite selling more than enough to be a bestseller, now wasn't. Anything I write in the future will struggle to find a publisher because by all the metrics that count, The Paradox Paradox failed.

That's how I discovered that those pre-orders were no longer eligible to be counted due to a change in the rules. After it was too late to do anything about it.

I was even told by a higher up that they'd know about the change since last year.

The weekend that The Paradox Paradox published, about a month ago now, I ran out to get a copy of the Sunday Times to see it on the best-sellers list. A huge career achievement that ~5,000 sales in the pre-order stage had cemented for me.

My book was not listed.

I never received the payment plan.

In fact, all last year they'd told us that I had advances that were on their way. They never turned up either.

Oh, and this story gets worse.

Eventually, I got into contact with the co-founder of Unbound, John Mitchinson, who told me on the 24th of April that the figure they'd initially sent was wrong, and that I would have my actual payment plan by end of the 28th April.

Then, on the 5th of May, that I would have it by the 6th.

I was then sent a payment plan for how much they owed me. It stated they owed me less than £4,000 for a book which had raised roughly £250,000 during the pre-order phase.

Uh huh...

Unbound went into administration a while back and was replaced with Boundless, which was mostly the same people, only now the money they owed me had turned into "historic goodwill payments".

I discovered yesterday, in a mass email sent at 3am, that I will not be receiving the roughly £40,000 that my publisher Unbound/Boundless owes me for pre-order sales of The Paradox Paradox. The payment for five years of work, gone.

#unboundless
Authors published by the crowdfunding publisher Unbound will not receive historic royalty payments for sales of their books, unless Boundless, the new publisher founded following Unbound going into administration, "survives and thrives" 👇 #BookSky
Unbound authors will not receive unpaid royalty payments until new publisher Boundless 'is cash stable'
