Update #?

April 3rd - via: kickstarter.com
I'm sorry my updates have become less frequent, but I actually ended up coming down with a nasty bug over the weekend/first half of the week. I'm feeling a bit better, but still on the mend. We're close to 200 backers, which is insane, and I've got... (Read More)

11 Days left- What we've accomplished so far!

March 30th - via: kickstarter.com
I'm constantly blown away when I see that we've hit another stretch goal. The most recent sees us adding a map of the "Foothills of the Vying Lords" to all editions of the novel. Who doesn't love a nice map for reference when dealing with fantasy... (Read More)

UPDATE #8

March 25th - via: kickstarter.com
And like that, we broke all my initially planned stretch goals-- which means the audiobook can get produced. I'm actively auditioning one narrator now (who is super passionate about this project, which is a big +) and will see how it goes. Thanks to... (Read More)

UPDATE #7- STRETCH GOAL 4 UNLOCKED

March 21st - via: kickstarter.com
We hit the next stretch goal, which will be a final illustration crafted by the same artist who did Nu and the Hungering Mountain in such vivid colors. I've already pinged the artist, and we are in the early stages of communication. As soon as I have... (Read More)

UPDATE #6

March 18th - via: kickstarter.com
It took less than 48 hours for us to break through three-- THREE-- stretch goals. I'm absolutely blown away and already making preparations to get this campaign to you as soon as possible. Speaking of segways.... Anyone familiar with me and how I... (Read More)

UPDATE #5

March 18th - via: kickstarter.com
Wow. Today was all sorts of hectic, least of all because I coordinated the cover reveal for the phenomenal art Christian with Voyager Illustrations did for the paperback alongside the Kickstarter launch. At the time of penning this, we're at 67... (Read More)

UPDATE#4

February 27th - via: kickstarter.com
Unless something drastically changes, this will likely be the last update before launch! Hitting 150 pre-launch followers(and growing) genuinely blows away my expectations as a first-time campaign creator. And I can't thank you all enough for the... (Read More)

Update #3– End page Illustration Reveal

February 14th - via: kickstarter.com
I’m constantly blown away by the growing support this project has gained since pre-launch opened up. At 150 followers, we’ll be unlocking a free digital short story set in the same world. And if we hit 200, before launch, the naked hardcover... (Read More)

To celebrate surpassing 50 pre-launch followers...

February 9th - via: kickstarter.com
I didn't plan to do a second update days after the first. And I certainly don't want to, or plan to, spam updates, but I do want to do something for this growing community of followers. I had a soft goal of 50, and it looks like we just cleared 60!... (Read More)

End of Week One

February 6th - via: kickstarter.com
I am seriously blown away by the early support 45 FOLLOWERS... So what's next? I'm finalizing graphics on the back end, working on finishing up shipping cost estimates, and working extra hard to get the word out about this project. We've got a month... (Read More)
