I’ve got a little thank you video at the link for all our backers-
That was an astounding run. We finished at $340,027, which is 7 times what we needed to fund the project!
The backers will be getting update emails through the Kickstarter as Everything Epic works on getting this awesome game out.
I just want to say that I was blown away by the response we got. You guys rock. I’ve got the best fans in the business. And I can’t wait for you guys to get some nifty miniatures. 😀
Okay, I’ve got to keep this brief because there is a crazy amount of stuff going on right now!
Kickstarter Update
We are heading into the last 4 days of the Monster Hunter International miniatures game kickstarter from Everything Epic. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/everythingepicgames/monster-hunter-international-the-miniatures-game/description
We are at a whopping $229k right now and have been blowing through stretch goals. Just take a look at all the awesome stuff we’ve unlocked-
More heroes, more monsters, and the more people who back in the final hours I’m excited to see what else we can unlock. Remember, there will be no regular retail on this, so this is your chance. And the more of your friends you tell, the more cool free stuff we can add.
You guys are amazing. I am humbled by how well this has gone. I’ve got the best fans in the business.
Secret Gun Book Project
Yep, it turns out when you have studied a topic for 30 years, you can write a book about it in 30 days! The non-fiction gun/politics book project is almost wrapped up, and I will be giving more information about it soon. This is not an indy project, it is through a major non-fiction publisher. More details to come.
WriterDojo
Thank you to all our supporters, this has been cranking along. And, good news, the special story that Steve wrote specifically for our WriterDojo backers will go out TODAY. (If you don’t receive it in the next 24 hrs, send me your email. Supporters@WriterDojo.com -Jack)
And I am happy to announce that we will be doing a WriterDojo panel at FenCon, with me, Steve Diamond, and Jack Wylder all together in person. Which should be a lot of fun.
Upcoming Books
My next release is No Game for Knights, the second anthology of sci-fi and fantasy noir short stories that I co-edited with the amazing Kacey Ezell. It comes out in September, but the eARC is available now from Baen.com. (https://www.baen.com/no-game-for-knights-earc.html)
My next book after that is Tower of Silence, 4th book in the Saga of the Forgotten Warrior. I do not know the exact release date of that, but I believe it is 2nd quarter 2023.
I’d love to talk more, but I’ve got to go do some final edits.
We have stretch goals!
First up, everybody’s favorite stripper turned monster hunter, Holly Newcastle (I love writing Holly).
Currently we are $133k and moving steadily so almost to Holly. The next stretch goal will get revealed soon.
I am blown away by how awesome you guys are. The reception to this has been great.
I’ll be on Ethan Van Sciver’s livestream tonight (7 EST) talking about this kickstarter and other stuff. You can tune in at the ComicArtistProSecrets channel on Youtube tonight.
And we are halfway to our $50k goal in the first 20 minutes!
