I'm blown away. We closed our campaign with 148 backers and $6,670 raised! That was well beyond my planned "best case scenario." So, thank you! This wouldn't have happened without your support.
I'll send more detailed updates soon, but here's some reminders and estimates for when rewards will be fulfilled.
Important Reminders
Some payments did not go through. Double check your transaction so you get your rewards.
We will send out a survey to collect shipping addresses and which name you'd like printed in the book (for Journeyman, Grandmaster, and Assemble the Demon Shards tiers).
Shipping will likely be charged sometime in April, approximately 1 month before we plan on shipping rewards.
ETA
All eBooks are available right now. Contact [email protected] if you have trouble accessing your digital content.
Paperbacks and Book Club Boxes: We will order inventory in April and begin fulfilling U.S. domestic orders by May. International paperbacks will be sent directly from the printer.
Hardcovers: Same story but will take longer to ship, since we need to order these from the U.K.
Audiobook: This is in production and will be delivered via a BackerKit update in the coming months. Give us time, as this is a volunteer effort we're pursuing in our free time.
Thank you so much for your help in this. If you need anything, just give us a shout ([email protected])
We did it! Yesterday, we reached our final stretch goal which means every backer will receive the following in addition to their standard pledge rewards:
Digital wallpapers of Callan's hand-drawn map
The Old Sorcery audiobook
Four DRM-free Arcanist eBooks
That's an incredible result, and it's entirely thanks to your support.
Now, here's what happens next: we're going into Overtime.
BackerKit's Overtime feature means the campaign doesn't end at a hard deadline. Instead, the timer resets each time a new pledge comes in. The campaign will only close once a full period passes with no new backers. So if you've been waiting, or know someone who'd love to jump in, there's still time; every new pledge keeps the door open a little longer!
Thank you all so much. I am admittedly experiencing a bit of shell shock. We are supremely humbled by your support.
This is it. We're in the final 48 hours of the campaign. And the timing couldn't be better: our test copy of the Hardcover just arrived, and we couldn't wait to show you what's inside.
Check out the video below to get a first look at our Premium Hardcover:
We woke up this morning to a wonderful surprise: we now have 101 backers! 🎉
We've also blown past our second stretch goal at $4,250, unlocking digital wallpapers of Callan's beautiful hand-drawn map of Garden for every backer. Thank you all, that's a real milestone!
Now, can we go one further? We have 3 days left to reach our ultimate stretch goal at $5,500, which would unlock four DRM-free Arcanist eBooks for every single backer on top of their existing rewards.
If you haven't pledged yet, or know someone who might love what we're doing, now is the perfect time. Let's finish strong!
We're in the home stretch and we're so close on two fronts!
We're currently at 94 backers, and I truly think we can hit 100 before the campaign ends. If you've been on the fence, now is the time!
And if we can reach $5,500 before we close, every single backer will receive DRM-free eBooks of every Arcanist novel we've put out so far on top of their existing rewards. That's four more books for free!
Thank you all so much for your support. Let's finish strong!
