Art prints arrived and packages going out the door!
about 2 months ago – Tue, Jan 21, 2025 at 12:55:54 PM

The replacement art prints arrived last week and they look fantastic! I'm so happy with the job the printer did! I think you're going to love them!

Now that I have the art prints, shipments are continuing! With ~10 going out each day, I expect everything to be shipped in the next three-four weeks.

I have been called to jury duty starting tomorrow so it will slow me down during the day, but I'll be preparing packages to mail out in the evenings.

Thank you again for your amazing support and patience! <3

Shipping continues!
3 months ago – Mon, Dec 09, 2024 at 12:31:42 PM

More packages are going to the post office each day!

There is a delay with some of the packages. Some of the bonus art prints arrived messed up - either in transit or by the printer. I'm waiting on the reprints to arrive and will resume packing those up when they do!

But everything else continues to go out in batches! Keep an eye out for an email with a tracking number and don't hesitate to reach out with any questions!

Thanks again!

Books arriving tomorrow!
5 months ago – Fri, Nov 01, 2024 at 02:06:29 PM

I received a tracking number for the BIG shipment of books and it looks like they're on track to arrive here tomorrow! The books are printed in the U.S. and I suspect the storms which rocked the southeast may have played a part in the delays.

I'm standing ready with packing materials! As soon as the shipment arrives, I have to go through each of the boxes and examine the books in case I need to report any damages to the printer. Then the fun begins!

Monday, I'll begin shipping out orders!

Thanks to all of you who responded so kindly to the digital PDF editions! 

A quick wrapup of other news from the past month...

  • Gamehole Con in Madison, Wisconsin, was amazing and the D&D crowd really responded to The Middle Age! We sold out of The Middle Age Volume 1 and the softcover Chapter One book sold out as well!
  • Hurricane Milton rolled over my town but we prepared and were very lucky. We lost a lot of sleep, and quite a bit of water got in but nothing irreplaceable was damaged - and I was thankful the big shipment of books hadn't arrived in the days before the storm while I was stacking sandbags!
  • With shipping under way and the finishing touches being put on Nibblemancy, I'm already preparing my next Kickstarter and working up something special for my Patreon supporters.

I can't wait for you to get your books!

Campaign update and PDF rewards on their way!
6 months ago – Mon, Sep 30, 2024 at 02:25:43 PM

A quick update...

I'm still waiting on the full shipment of books. I had a rush shipment sent my way (as I mentioned in the previous update) and a box of books rushed to the Baltimore Comic-Con where I was able to place them in the hands of a few backers!

I have everything I need to ship out the books when they arrive. I'll keep you all posted. 

In mere moments, I will be sending out instructions for downloading your PDF copies of The Middle Age Volume Three (and previous volumes if you signed up for those). Check your Kickstarter messages shortly for details.

I can't wait for you to get your books and other loot!

Thanks again for your amazing support!
