Setting up your book and choosing a gift date

When you set up your book, you'll enter the date you'd like to give it to the guest of honor. Books take about 2 weeks to print and ship once they're sent to print, so we'll recommend a contribution due date that leaves enough time.

You're free to change the recommended due date to suit your plans, and you can adjust it anytime while you're working on the book.

To view or change your dates, click edit settings on your book dashboard.

Collaborators see the due date in their dashboards, and everyone you've invited is notified by email whenever it changes.
