We moved the Studio Shop to a new software platform with better security and a more modern customer experience. The one downside is that customers will need to create new accounts as the old accounts do not transfer over.
If you previously purchased one of Janny Wurts' e-books with your old account, we want to make sure you don't lose access. Please create a new account (you can reuse the same email address), then use the "Contact" link in the Studio Shop's top navigation bar. Let us know the email addresses associated with your old account and new account. We will confirm your purchases and transfer your e-books into your new account so you can redownload them any time you want.
