I'm interested in buying a Leanpub book, but it's incomplete and hasn't been updated in a while. How can I find out if the author intends to finish the book?

I'm interested in buying a Leanpub book, but it's incomplete and hasn't been updated in a while. How can I find out if the author intends to finish the book?

Leanpub is a self-publishing platform, and we typically don't have any knowledge of an author's life circumstances, or their plans for their writing projects.

Sometimes book projects can get stalled for a long period of time, and the author will come back to them.

There are a lot of reasons an author might stop working on a book for a while, including developments in their personal and professional lives.

To find out what the author's intentions are for a book, we recommend you contact the author and ask them about their plans.

Authors typically love hearing from readers about things like this!
