I'm so excited!

I was trying to wrap up for the night but I had to check one more time, and... AHHH!

We're so close!



Now, the question is...will I or will I not sleep tonight?

We're down to less than 24 hours!!!

We are so close...


We hit our $6500 stretch goal and are less than $250 away from our next one, which is printed end papers!!!

I was asked what the end papers might look like and while I'm not sharing Ivy's, I'm thinking either bear paws for Jonah or something like this...



I like the mountains and the wilderness aspect. I was traveling last year and saw Maine for the first time and loved it. We're going to New England in a couple of weeks and I might try to hit Maine for a couple of days, visit the area where I'm basing the story...dunno yet. But I like the feel of this one. Still playing, because I also like the idea of doing the constellations, because Ursa Major!


But...jury is very, very clearly still out!

I hope you all have had fun with this campaign and for those of you new to my work, thank you for taking a chance on me. Those of you who are readers of mine, thank you again for your continued support.

Here's our last trivia question and I didn't forget to attach the question this time!

Let's crush these final few hours!

Well... I was SO excited, I forgot something. THE ACTUAL POLL. Question #12

The update is HERE.

And the poll is HERE.

Excuse me now. I'm going to go flop over in ADHD-exhaustedness.

It's the FINAL COUNTDOWN! Question #12 and other stuff!

AAAHHHH!!!!

I'm so excited!!!

We've surpassed the next goal, which was at $6500 so we'll be getting some more Chibi art done and everybody who backed a physical tier will be getting adorable chibi stickers!

The art will be similar to this as I'll be contracting AngelliniX with ArtistsnClients again, but this time, I think we'll have Jonas in his bear form and Ivy as her...well, her other self.


Speaking of Ivy's other self!!

We've had a lot of new backers come on since we started.

Have you been joining in on the trivia challenge?
If not, start here
  1. Question #1: Mythology about her people—or their predecessors—dates back thousands of years and span cultures.
  2. Question #2
  3. Question #3
  4. Question #4
  5. Question #5
  6. Question #6
  7. Question #7
  8. Question #8
  9. Question #9
  10. Question #10
  11. Question #11

Question #12 is coming below. Just a head's up on how this works... since you haven't read the book yet, and I'm playing my cards close to my chest, all you have to do to win the little prize I'm giving out is participate. Even if you're backing on the final days. Just go back and answer the questions and chime in with your suppositions and guesses! If you're backing a physical tier or have requested physical rewards, you'll get the little bonus token that pays homage to Ivy's true nature when it's time to mail out rewards! Gratis!


Our next stretch goal... can we make it?

Printed end pages!

The front will feature a design paying tribute to Jonas's handsome bear self. And the back... yes, will be about Ivy. But no secrets slipping here. All we have to do to get the end pages is break through $7k by Thursday before the campaign ends!

I'm so excited!  I'm blown away by the support y'all have shown this project.
And now... onto the the second to last trivia question
