Bear Necessities Launches Tomorrow! 🐻

My excitement, nerves, and a few updates on where to find it first

We are so very nearly there - Bear Necessities officially launches tomorrow!

I’m equal parts thrilled and thoroughly panicked! It’s hard to believe that after endless hours, edits, and more coffee than anyone should consume, Bear Necessities is finally going to be out in the wild.

Thank you to everyone who’s stuck with me, pre-ordered, shared posts, and cheered me on along the way - it’s genuinely humbling (and, yes, a bit intimidating!) to have your support.

For those ready to jump into my take on the tangled mess of political ideologies, here’s where to find it:

---

Physical Copies (Hardback and Paperback) Links

• Great British Bookshop

• Amazon: (coming soon, likely next week)

eBook Links

• Kobo

• Barnes & Noble

• Apple Books

• Amazon Kindle (arriving on 7 November, in typical Amazon fashion)

---

I should mention that, because I’m working with The Great British Bookshop to support a UK-based seller, deliveries may take a little longer than Amazon. I wanted to start with a local partner before jumping straight in with Amazon. GBBS does also offer US, UK and EU deliveries, so please do see if you’re able to support them, and thanks for your patience - it’s greatly appreciated!

I’ve also created a LinkTree with all the buying options in one place for your convenience (and mine).

And, on a timely (and slightly terrifying) note, today brings us the first Labour Budget in 15 years, courtesy of Rachel Reeves, and the amount of speculation in the media has been driving me (and I’m sure you) completely up the wall, so I’m relieved that the big day is finally here and we can have a better idea of what the next year looks like. My personal suspicion is that this will be an awful budget setting itself up for a better one next year, but we can only wait and see.

I’ll be keeping a close eye on the numbers - here’s hoping for something solid and socialist instead of just yet more Austerity dressed up in a red tie.

Thanks again to everyone, and here’s to launch day!
