GRIMOIRE FAQ

Question: What about other authors attending? Why aren't they included?

Answer: At the time of delivering Grimoire 3 to the printer to ensure copies arrive in time for the August 2025 convention, we were uncertain who would be attending. Editor Shawn Speakman created the best line-up he could with the information provided.

Question: I'm not able to attend Seattle Worldcon 2025 but I want Grimoire. How can I get a copy?

Answer: The Grim Oak Press warehouse will be shipped copies for exactly this reason. Pre-order your copy now from this page by selecting SHIP TO ME and have it mailed after Seattle Worldcon 2025. These will likely be signed by many of the authors who live locally to the warehouse, including Megan Lindholm, Kat Ogden, Zach Argyle, Matt Dinniman, and Shawn Speakman.

Question: I'm attending Seattle Worldcon 2025. Can I pre-order Grimoire from you now to guarantee my copy and then pick the book up from the Grim Oak booth at the con?

Answer: Yes, you can do it right from this product page and save on shipping! Be sure to select WORLDCON PICK UP.

Question: I'm attending Seattle Worldcon 2025. What happens if I miss out on the convention for some reason and I can't pick up my book?

Answer: After the convention is over, we will ship your book back to our Seattle-area warehouse and, if you want the book, we will invoice you for shipping.

Question: Are you planning on doing other Grimoire anthologies at future conventions that Grim Oak Press will exhibit at, like Dragonsteel Nexus 2025?

Answer: Yes. There's just something special about a multi-signed book and these sorts of anthologies will help pay for Grim Oak Press to exhibit at other conventions. We will be at Dragonsteel Nexus 2025 as long as they'll have us.
