Project Update: 85% Funded, 250 Backers, Bonus Story: UNLOCKED, and More!

IN SHORT

  • You all just unlocked a bonus Orhan the Snow Leopard short story!: "The Shaman's Blood Price", a 7000 word tale that adds extra dimension to Dariel's novella, will now be added in digital formats to all backer's pledges.

  • The book has had some more press you can check out: Dariel was interviewed about his writing career at large on Liam's Lyceum - https://youtu.be/oUjnvmgohB4?si=ko5NTrXfKMIxb-vp

    He also chatted with the fine folks at the Infinite Library podcast, available here and all the usual places good podcasts can be found - https://youtu.be/mafXqSQYLFk?si=gYrqh_wd_FeUvdEi

  • Tonight at 7pm EST we're livestreaming a Double-Edged Short Story Panel Discussion, covering one Orhan story and one Goatskin story! You can watch it right here on our campaign page, where the trailer sits.

  • We've just hit...

IN DETAIL

Technically we're a hair's breadth beneath 85% but I got excited about the other news, and had this fun graphic just waiting in the wings...


So yes, having cleared 250 backers, all crowdfund backers, and only our crowdfund backers, will receive a bonus Orhan the Snow Leopard story by Dariel R.A. Quiogue, called "The Shaman's Blood Price", that ties loosely into WALLS OF SHIRA YULUN.

Next up? Bonus poetry related to WASTE FLOWERS as written by Bryn Hammond, should we hit 300 backers. With a little over two weeks in the campaign, this feels quite doable!



Word of the book continues to spread, with two more interviews (On Liam's Lyceum and Infinite Library) and hopefully more on the way. If you know anybody with a suitable blog, podcast, booktube channel, or any other venue that might be keen in chatting with us...well, honestly that's our job to take care of, but we really like the graphic we made with a "Press" hat on the smiling camel, so here we are.


MEANWHILE

TONIGHT

AT 7pm EST

Our publisher, Oliver, will be joined by Kevin Beckett (Just the Axe, Ma'am), Jay Wolf (Beating Hearts & Battle-Axes), and Kirk Johnson (The Obanaax) for a Double-Edged Short Story panel discussion. The two stories they'll be covering?

"Sister Chaos" by Bryn Hammond (New Edge Sword & Sorcery #1)
&
"The Demon of Tashi Tzang" by Dariel R.A. Quiogue (New Edge Sword & Sorcery #2)

You don't have to have read them to enjoy the chat, but there will be spoilers as we use these two stories to explore what makes the writing of these authors so damn good.

You can watch the stream on YouTube or on our campaign page.

THAT'S IT FOR NOW

Thanks again to you all for backing & sharing, we don't take it for granted!
