what place is ideal to preorder from to best support you and ensure you get the most out of our purchase? Idk how cuts work in publishing I just want to ensure authors get their proper dues!

That is so kind of you to ask! I'm always a huge proponent for ordering any books (including mine!) through your local independent bookstore, if you are able to! They do so much for the world of books, and they are really struggling right now! If they don't have the book you're looking for listed currently, asking for it really helps out authors as well, since it's possible they will order more than one when they see demand!
