I'm really pleased. I went to Ali's site and subscribed to the Stories of the Month kit with no problem - just went on my computer yesterday as usual while having my coffee before work, hit subscribe, added the Pendleton stickers as an add-on, and had no problems whatsoever. I'm excited to get my first kit and to document 2018 - I haven't done PL in about 2 years, and my son is turning 18 this year so I think it will be a good year to document. I'm sorry for those who missed out or had problems, hopefully everything gets worked out okay for them.
After years of being frozen, I'm unfrozen with a bang (well, there was a gradual thaw starting last summer, but now I've really melted)!!
My OLW kit shipped the other day, so I have that to look forward to for January as well. I hope 2018 is a good year, I need one!

I still just see that i have an active subscription. No way to access add ons. I’m not jumping through hoops for this.

I just noticed Ali has updated the full list for 2018 Story Kits and Stamps.  Really excited about 2018’s words. I was disappointed in some of the kits this year but both November and December have been winners to me. Hopefully, the trend will continue. |

I love the words too.
I've lost track of the discussion - is there a class available without the kit?

We had snow too, but I think it was on December 1st? Lots of snow in a short period of time! My niece was delighted! Haha! I wish I lived by the sea, too. No vague-submersion for you, I hope? Ha, if you thought this grown-in-a-harbour-city gal was going to go for a walk close to the Medi Sea during stormy episodes, you'd be human after all. #wrong  I stayed clear until the sea settled. Ain't nobody got time for that... (except if you want to risk drowning just so you might end up being carried away by a hot pompier) By the way, my parents brought in a new cat they found meowing and desperate for some food on a parking lot. Poor thing has a very bad ear infection (and is being treated for it now). Found your kitty twin! He's super cuddly and adorable.  paperamy Hey, I forgot to thank you for rectifying my mistaken mind regarding the acrylic word format for 2018. Merci beaucoup.  anonrefugee Did you waitlist yourself for the SBtM sub or are you going to skip it altogether now? As for my next AE purchases, I'll probably buy January's Story kit as 'change' is my OLW for 2018. That means I won't have to pay $21 for the custom acrylic word and will be getting cards + embellishments that fit my theme. Winner winner, chicken dinner! My account is also unstuck when it comes to purchasing add-ons with my SBtM sub. The .03 precision pen is a regular 0.3mm brush stroke width, right? |

There are a few words in the 2018 list that look good to me. One is my maiden name, so that's pretty much a must!

sleepingbooty I didn't notice a waitlist option! I will now, if I'm not way way too late.

Okay! I think we fixed it! Can you check and let me know if you see it in your dropdown menu now!? Yes! That fixed it! Thank you! It's great that they fixed it, but SO DISAPPOINTING that it's always something and that they don't test functionality before they release. Test case 1 - test subscription for a test 12 month new subscriber w/existing 12 month subscription Test case 2 - test subscription for a test 6 month new subscriber w/existing 12 month subscription Test case 3 - test subscription for a test month-to-month new subscriber w/existing 12 month subscription Test case 4 - test subscription for a test 12 month new subscriber w/o any existing subscriptions..... you know, like that. |

Ha. don't kid yourself. The CS agent I emailed acted like the website was running just like it should have. She had no clue and wasn't interested in listening to what I was trying to tell her. Katie helping me is the only reason I got results. SaveSave |

Ali's announcement today about the wait listers has me wanting to sign up just to support a great designer standing behind her products and listening to her customers. I still don't think I need the kit as I get Elle's Studio, but I'm really tempted.

Did anyone get a welcome to the story kit email today? I am confused because I have been a subscriber for a year?? I did. And I have been a subscriber from the start. I thought it might be because I signed up for the new SotM kit, but the email clearly said story kit. Today I received an email saying the December story kit would be sent in paper packaging and not the clear envelope. We will receive the clear envelope with our January kit. |

I haven't received any of those messages. I got the notice/invoice just after midnight for the orders being created. And I got an email telling me the content was now available for my story stamp sub. The SBtM and story stamp were both new to me this month.

I signed up for this month's love story kit on a month to month basis and plan to cancel as soon as it arrives,so I was bummed about that. I love those plastic pouches.....I signed up because our guinea pig had 3 babies this week and I am in 💘. They are super adorable. |

Wonder in what order they process orders... alphabetically I would be up front, I ordered at 12:01, random draw I guess? Mine are all still active.

Mine hasn't shipped yet, but I am towards the back of the alphabet. 😣
I also got my OLW order, and I had to contact CS. A previous poster mentioned the quality of the label stickers in this year's sticker pack, and they definitely are cheaper feeling than the rest of the stickers.
Additionally, I ordered the 3x8 "The Story" notepad, as I have a ton of 3x8 page protectors. I have thicker copier paper at home! It was definitely not worth the price I paid for it. 😞

Sure sounds like typical Inked where everything is haphazard with no rhyme or reason.

I stayed clear until the sea settled. Ain't nobody got time for that... (except if you want to risk drowning just so you might end up being carried away by a hot pompier)
