The Slow Press Club - Shared Subscription

Introducing the Shared Subscription. 

It's The Slow Press, times two! You’ll receive two copies of each monthly edition, bundled together in one package, along with a Pause & Pour card - your little invitation to stop for a moment and connect. Brew a cup of tea, settle in with someone you love, and use the prompts on the card to start a conversation. Whether it’s your partner, friend, housemate or family member, it’s simply a way to share a little more time together, one puzzle at a time.

Inclusions: 

PLEASE NOTE: We cannot deliver to Parcel Lockers or through Parcel Collect. 

You’ll each receive a tiny pencil (with its own little eraser) in your first delivery - just for your puzzles.

20+ pages of stimulating puzzles varying from crosswords, mazes, word searches and sudoku, as well as anagrams, phrase chains and more. No two editions are the same!

You'll each receive a collectable keepsake - the 'Word of the Month' which informs the theme for the entire edition. This is always a lesser-known or forgotten word that I bring back to life in the form of a dictionary-style definition.

Pause & Pour: You’ll receive two herbal tea sachets (flavours will vary each month) to enjoy together, along with a Pause & Pour card featuring three curious questions to get the conversation started. Make yourselves a cuppa, turn the card over, and see where the conversation takes you. Take a little time to reconnect, then it’s back to the puzzles.

At the back of every edition, our resident psychologist dives into topics ranging from burnout, to stress, motivation, emotional overwhelm, relationships, confidence, attention spans, routines, self-understanding, or simply trying to exist as a human in an increasingly noisy world. It's called 'Inside the Mind - Words from our Resident Psychologist'. 

Three weeks later, you'll receive the answers to your puzzles in an email called 'The Afterword'. This is an extension of The Slow Press experience and contains not only the answers, but the recipe of the month, a bonus puzzle, and a few things that didn't quite make it to print.*

How It Works:

Step 1: Subscribe. Join the club to secure your monthly printed editions. Simple, recurring, and easy to manage. 

Step 2: Anticipate. Every month, your editions are posted on the same day via the 'snail mail' method. I promise it's worth the wait!

Step 3: Solve. Dive into content designed to engage your brain. The Slow Press isn't meant to be finished in one sitting, it's something to come back to time and time again throughout the month. Keep it on your coffee table or by your bed, there's no wrong or right way to move through it. 

Step 4: Check, Bake, Read. Three weeks later, The Afterword arrives in your inbox. It's a nice way to continue piquing your curiosity before the next edition arrives in your mailbox!

Important Dates

• The Cut-off: To receive the latest edition, please place your first order by the 13th of the month (11:59 PM AEST). Your edition is then posted a few days later on the 15th.  Orders placed after the 13th will start with the following month’s release.
• Shipping Day: All editions are posted on the 15th of every month. Even if you sign up early (from the 14th of the previous month through to the 13th of this month, your copy will head out with the main batch on the 15th.

Shipping & Delivery

• Method: Editions are sent via Australia Post as untracked, regular mail so whilst you will not be able to track the arrival of your edition, the beauty is in the waiting.
• Both editions in the shared subscription are posted to one address only. 
• Timing: Please allow 7-14 business days for delivery within Australia. (Note: these are estimates and can vary during busy seasons).

Billing & Cancellations

• Payments: You will be billed monthly on the same date you originally joined.
• Flexibility: Subscriptions renew automatically, but you can pause or cancel anytime through your customer account or by emailing hello@slowpressclub.com.
• Refunds: To avoid being charged for the next edition, please cancel before your billing date. Once a payment is processed and we begin preparing your order, that month’s edition cannot be refunded.

*By subscribing, you agree to receive 'The Afterword' email three weeks after mail-out day. This is not a marketing email and I do not send you any additional emails other than order confirmations, order shipment notifications, and The Afterword.
