Sources around Simon & Schuster publishing house, which will be marketing the book, have said the paper shortage has seriously disrupted plans for a January launch. As a result, no official release date has yet been announced by the publisher. Britney signed a deal with the publishing company in February of this year for which she reportedly received an advance of fifteen million dollars.
Earlier, a Publishers Weekly report stated that the paper ran out during the corona pandemic, as people started to read more during that time. In addition, the paper mills, like many other sectors, have been struggling with staff shortages since then.
