HI Paula,

Great question. As mentioned in the post, there was a original version of this guide called simply “Emotion Amplifiers” and it covered 15 states that amplified emotion. This is what you would have seen. It was a bare-bones ebooklet, not a full thesaurus, because at the time, we were only looking to help writers with a few states that people often mistook for emotions. It was a digital book only, not print.

This guide contains a thesaurus of over 50 emotion amplifiers, and it has the type of in-depth instruction common to our guides. So this second edition is the grown-up version, a true thesaurus, and will be available in all formats including print.

Let me know if you have any other questions!

I’m so glad you’re excited for this one, Vincent!

We have had problems with preorders in the past (A certain store starting with “A” bungled the last one we tried, resulting in several hundred book orders to be cancelled in Canada) and so we’re a bit leary of trying again. However, the release date is May 13th, and in our experience, the books always appear a few days early at the different online stores.
