Cover reveal for YOU DON’T NEED A BUDGET!!

Plus the steps we took to design the cover + where to pre-order the book (yes, it’s available!)

Today I’m doing a little happy dance, because I just found out my book, You Don’t Need a Budget, is available to pre-order on Amazon. It’s extremely early, of course — the official release date is eight months away! — but if you’ve been following the book’s journey and are eager to get it ASAP, you can pre-order it now and not have to think about it until it arrives in December 😊

Whether you order today or not, you can help out the book and yourself by adding it to your To Read list on Goodreads.¹ That’s an easy way to help others find the book, and it lets you get updates when the book is published, when we host giveaways, etc.

And, because it’s out in the world now, I can finally share the cover. We finalized this a couple of months ago, and I’ve been chomping at the bit to share it with you! (After the paywall below, I’ll share a look into the process of designing the cover for anyone who’s curious…)

Here it is!

Don’t you want to just curl up with it??

Follow (or unfollow) YDNAB updates

We don’t have anything major coming soon, but I’m working with my team at Little, Brown Spark on the book’s roll out in the second half of this year. We’ll be promoting pre-orders in earnest a few months before the Dec. 24 release, and once the book is out, I’ll be trying to reach everyone who wants to strike “budgeting” from their list of self-improvement chores next January.

In the Healthy Rich community, you’ll be the first to know about book news, events, promotions, giveaways, places to buy the book and whatever else comes up in the journey of releasing a book. I’ll tuck all these updates, plus a press tour playlist you can follow, under a new YDNAB category, so it’s easy for you to find them if you want them, and to opt out (like, if you’ve already ordered your copy and don’t need anymore information 😉).

You can manage which categories of emails you receive in your account under “Notifications.”

Alongside book updates, I’ll be sticking to our regularly scheduled programming for Healthy Rich: essays from me and other smart and interesting folks about how capitalism impacts the ways we think, teach and talk about money. Keep “Healthy Rich” checked under “Notifications” so you don’t miss these regular newsletters!
