Hello everyone, thank you again for the enormous outpouring of support over the past 24 hours. It's been a sunny day here and I've spent it outdoors with my son, so I haven't been able to attend to your comments and questions yet. I hope you understand the need to take a few days away from the computer following the preparations for the campaign. I'll be back 'in the office' next Monday and will be in full customer service mode then.

Let me say once again, thank you for the support. I didn't think we could clear £60,000 raised in a month let alone a day! It's lovely to see such enthusiasm for the project from old fans and new faces as well. I am still considering how to reflect this unexpected level of support without weighing down production.

I'll sign off just by saying that the early bird reward, Fragments of a Blue Ruin, is still available until 21:00 BST tomorrow evening. There's been a few questions about what this is exactly, and it's essentially a collection of prose fragments and flash fiction set in the world of Vaarn. Some have appeared on my blog before, and others will be brand new. You can see the cover down below:

I hope everyone's having a good day. More updates soon! If you have a question or comment pending, rest assured I will get to you as soon as I can.
