Good day all.

A quick note--as this was brought up by one backer--if you are international, please check your duties & customs information and any funds that you may have had to pay to receive your packages. There was an error on my end with uploading information and some backers were charged duties on items which they did not order (and which were not actually in their packages).

If you find that you were charged in error, please reach out to me immediately via BackerKit support and I will reimburse you the cost.

Happy day backers!

Te final book box packages are set to be picked up by the postal service tomorrow and should arrive at their dstinations within a week or so.

I'm so delighted to hear from folks that they've gotten their books and that they've arrived in good condition. I hope you'll enjoy the story!

If you're looking for some more deluxe editions, make sure you hop on over to Kickstarter and follow the pre-launch page for Hunted. It is a vampire paranormal romance trilogy Molly and I wrote that has a lot of similarities to Captivity: found family, social justice and some unique world building. We hope you'll come along on that next journey with us.

Happy mid-January all!

I've got some exciting news. With the exception of the book box backers, ALL rewards have now been shipped!

I should receive the final pieces for the book box in the next week or so and plan to get them in the mail before my family and I head out of state for a family holiday.

There were one or two folks who hadn't yet completed their surveys. In the last day or two, I've had BackerKit re-send the email link to you. I can't send your books if I don't know where they need to go, so please fill them out! These books want new homes. Help me get them where they ought to be!

Thanks again for supporting this campaign!

Happy Day backers!

The hardcovers have finally arrived at my house (so many books).

Over the next couple of weeks I'll be packing these up to head to their forever homes with you! But I wanted to share a few housekeeping updates with you all.

As a reminder, US shipping was included in the tier pricing. International backers will be charged for shipping in the next week or two once BackerKit enables the feature and I confirm final costs.

Folks in the EU (i think we've got a couple of you), fear not! Your books will be heading your way, too. I have obtained the necessary representation to continue shipping there. Also, we are now required to include safety information in the local language. Full disclosure, I will 100% be using Google Translate to assist me in this task. So, if things sound a little funny, that's partly why. Also I may be having a bit of cheeky fun with the wording, too.

This may have been my fist campaign directly on BackerKit but it is by no means the first campaign I've run (even in 2024). There are handful of you (4 by my count) who have backed my Guardians of Camelot campaign back in May. I'll be posting a separate update over on Kickstarter regarding that campaign in my detail, but I wanted to let you know that to save on shipping, I will be mailing your rewards for both campaigns in one package. As all of you are US-based, this won't affect any potential shipping costs for you at this time.

I will be posting another update once everything goes in early January!
