If you haven't pledged to my campaign yet, what's stopping you?
With the success of my last campaign, I had hoped that this one would also crack its goal plus a bit more. If you haven't pledged to the campaign yet, what's stopping you? Do you need a new incentive? More engagement? Is there something else missing? Please tell me and I'll do...

Out of all the video streams for this campaign, which one was your favorite?
They're all my favorite, but I think the most informative was the one with Rocio. =D
Listen to their auditions by going to: https://www.voices.com/shared_page/bb3a0e1424c89a5939259e7dca3fc7db
Then, use this poll or the website link to cast your vote!
Note: This is an honor system. Please only vote once. I will tally up the votes between the two sites to make the final decision and send an offer letter. Thanks!
I hope everyone is entering 2026 happy, healthy, wealthy, and full of joy. Since it's a holiday, I'll keep this super short: I need your help to choose a new voice actor for Dmitri!
Long story short, Prince Bolton will no longer be starring as Dmitri due to dereliction of duty. So, I've been holding auditions to recast the role. Now, I won't lie to you, finding a new voice actor on such short notice has been difficult, but I've narrowed it down to two individuals, and I'd love to have your input on who it should go to.
All you have to do is heart your favorite by 12:01 AM Sunday, 4 January and I'll send out the invitation and get the next section of the audiobook completed. Here's the link to vote:
I hope you're happy, healthy, wealthy, and enjoying time with your families!
Today I wanted to take a moment to thank you again for your support of the Blood Ties Audiobook. I'm a bit late on sending this update because during the campaign, I caught the flu, and then it took two weeks after that to completely heal up. Couple that with work, family obligations, and indie author stuff, and you have a recipe for disaster.
All that to say, thanks for your patience!
Going forward, I'll keep you updated at least once a month about what's going on with this campaign. In that regard, here's a quick update of where I'm at on with this project:
One of the narrators has not replied to any of my emails or messages, so I'm on the hunt for a new one. But, that's why the production date was pushed out to April. I wanted to have a buffer in case this happened.
Related to number one, I'm on the hunt for a new narrator that fits the bill. I've put out some feelers, and hopefully someone sticks. I'll keep you updated on how that goes.
The postcards are coming along nicely. I'm excited about them.
I haven't set up the pre-order store for this campaign yet. I've found that my audience doesn't order additional things from it. If you all would like me to set up the pre-order store (also known as late pledges), let me know!
I'm partially through with the full version of the pre-launch reward. I'm really happy about how it's turning out and can't wait to share more about that next month!
Surveys will go out closer to February/March, so don't panic that you haven't seen any. I want to make sure the project is completed before I set up fulfilment and shipping. I'll keep you all aprised of when that's going to happen.
Thanks again for your patience! The next update for this campaign probably won't be until January. Expect them to ramp up closer to completion of the project. In the mean time, happy holidays!
XOXO

P.S. I'm participating in the 2025 Holiday Mega Salehosted by Space Wizard on r/Fantasy for the benefit of the Mary Cariola Center. Over 300 authors are participating, and over 650 books will be free or $0.99. If you missed out on my books during my last two campaigns and the pre-order store, this is the perfect time to grab a copy! In addition, I'm also offering 15% off all items in my online store! Use code CHEER to take advantage. This offer is only open to those on my email lists and those who followed or backed my campaigns, so you don't want to miss it.
P.S.S. Apologies if you're getting this email again! I know some of you backed both projects.
I hope you're happy, healthy, and wealthy! Since today is a celebration for some, I wanted to start the morning with some good news:
It looks like this project funded! The Blood Ties audiobook is going to happen! I'm so grateful for this turn of events.
So, next up is our stretch goals! Let's see if we can reach one or two before this campaign closes out. First up, is three additional art prints for everyone. If you love character art, this is a perfect way to broaden your choices on which ones you get.
Last, don't forget that new polls posted today! There's two days left for Dmitri's polls, and the rest close out on 3 December!
