Pre-Pub In Production
I would be very curious to know why I have four books that have been "in Production" pre-pub since 2020....now we are 2022......The are R.C. Sprout books.

How do you know that they have been "in production" since 2020? As far as I know, there is no way to check that. In any case, books that FL is giving away free would seem to me to be less of a priority than books people are paying to purchase.
I remember those books were once listed as coming out on a certain date. The deadline passed, and they were switched to “in production“ ever since. 2020 seems about right for the Sproul books.

I see 4 "freebee" books by R.C. Sproul in pre-pub right now. I "think" I ordered them as soon as I saw them and my order date was 11/21/19 according to the product page.
They all 4 state that they are in production and I agree that "free" books are likely very low on the priority list of things to do. Especially if L-10 will hit in the next couple months.

My records show the same thing. However, the date that you "pre-ordered" is irrelevant to the "in production" date. As far as I know, there is no actual means for us to determine when it switched from "gathering interest" to "in production."

Because when I ordered them they were already in production. And they are not large books in print form. But my point was only to be curious at to perhaps a reason why we are two years later on not a large work and still "in production". Especially given the fact that one responder said that the title went from shipped date status to back to in production. Kind of seems that it is "stuck" there.

I don't remember that, but you may be right.

FL rarely responds to this sort of iniquity, but they might. My guess is that they will ship later this year...
