Hey Team!

Well shucks-howdy, looks like we went and blew right past Stretch Goal #1 — which means you'll all be getting my author-narrated reading of The Last Good Boy short story when it's time for rewards to go out at the end of the campaign. I'm looking forward to this. :-)

In the meantime, here's the roadmap for our next stretch goals! (I've got lots more fun stuff planned, but I didn't want to get too far ahead of myself here.)

In OTHER exciting news, we also totally made Kickstarter's "Projects We Love" list, so hey! Not too shabby. It's good to be loved.

Speaking of love, if you're stoked about this campaign and want to help make it bigger and better, definitely don't hesitate to share the campaign with some fellow Book Fans! We've even still got a few Early Bird Specials left. 

Anywho, that's enough from me. Talk soon, friends!


Cheers,

Luke

Thanks so much to everyone who dove right in and backed the campaign from the start today! As a man who rarely uses the word, "encouraged," I can honestly say that I am, you know… that. 🤫

Anywho. This seems like as good a time as any to start announcing stretch goals, so here goes.

Stretch Goal #1 — At $2,000 in total funding, I'll happily add an audio narration of the Excalibur Knights short story, The Last Good Boy, read by none other than yours truly (also happily). This reward will be added for all backers, regardless of tier backed. It should be a fun time, provided we make it that far.

Tomorrow, I might even get so far as to whip up a graphic with a nice pretty roadmap for stretch goals beyond that. But for now, I'm off to go do my happy dance — which, at this hour, looks confusingly like me doing the dishes while listening to a podcast. So, you know, hooray and stuff!

Thank you for backing.

Talk soon!


Cheers,

-Luke
