SUCCESS thanks to the Best. Backers. Ever!!!

Hello Awesome Backers!

Thank you all so much everyone for an incredibly successful campaign!  I would have never imagined this level of response and enthusiasm and so so many compliments on the work.  I cannot thank you all enough... 

Now, let me go over the next steps of fulfillment... 

1) Update Payment: Over the next couple of days you'll be getting emails to update your payment information. PLEASE DO SO. If your payment information is incorrect or insufficient, you will not be charged and you will not receive your rewards

2) Surveys Will Be Sent: You will get surveys that will include information for add-ons. So keep an eye out for that in two weeks.  Everyone should be getting Backerkit surveys once Kickstarter payment goes through in two weeks or so.  

3) Books Happen:  Ideally, we should have books completed by December / January time frame.  I will keep you updated if things change but currently that is the plan.  COVID always has the chance to delay things, but that is the current plan.  

4) Shipping Begins: If everything goes well on the manufacturing side, shipping will begin late January and continue into early February. Please note that there have been world wide shipping delays that have been exacerbated by the year of delays. **

**Note: If we're shipping to Australia we are keeping an eye on the changes to shipping there. If need be we will contact you individually to figure out how best to get you your rewards

Also, even though the campaign is over, you can still keep any questions, comments, stories, or suggestions coming.  That is ESPECIALLY true for future projects, as I am always looking for ideas for core books and add-ons for those based on what you would all like to see in your libraries... 

One Final Thing

If you have contacted me on the side concerning any sort of special request or accommodation, I will be sending you a replay verifying what we talked about in the next week.  If you don't see anything in your in box, please follow up to make sure I'm tracking what we talked about.    

Thank you again everyone!

Your Humble Book Maker

Featured Project and the Final Stretch of the Kickstarter!
about 3 years ago – Wed, Sep 29, 2021 at 11:23:00 PM

Hello Wonderful Backers!

I looked up today to see this project listed as the Featured Project and I was truly humbled and honored that you all have helped this project get there.  As we enter the final 24 hours of the project, again I thank you all, and ask that if there is anyway you can spread the word and help it finish strong, please do so.  

As we draw to a close, I'm also excited to finally be moving toward production and getting you a great start or addition to your own personal libraries of forbidden knowledge... :)

THANK YOU AMAZING BACKERS!!!

Another Stretch Goal Met! Another Stretch Goal Posted!

I know I keep saying it, but 

You Backers are AMAZING

After the promotion to Featured Project, we just hit the $150,000 mark and continue to rise from there.  In addition, I did an interview with The Washington Post today talking about this book, which will publish on Friday (right after the Kickstarter ends).  

I'm still working on the $200K stretch goal specifics, but it will be a super cool celestial map as a relatively inexpensive Add-On.  We'll make as big as we can, either as a single sheet, or several sheets pasted together.  I think we can keep the cost on this pretty low, but I also have to be careful not to over-promise on what we can give away for free.  

Thank you all yet again, and I know we are going to have a spectacular finish come Friday morning.  

Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go make some more "secrets of the book" videos for the backers...

YOU BACKERS ARE AMAZING!

Thank you all for supporting this project and all the well-wishes and comments on the side sending congratulations for meeting another goal.  We're working now on a $150K stretch goal option, and will post it as soon as we can.  

The response has been truly overwhelming, and thank you all so so much again.

Hello awesome Backers!

Because so many people have been asking about it, I wanted to post the pricing for the Add-Ons that will be available through the Backerkit survey that will come out once the Kickstarter Campaign has ended.

Thank you all yet again, and please do what you can to spread the word so we can finish strong!
