Stretch Goal #2 Unlocked!
9 months ago – Mon, Oct 16, 2023 at 07:40:21 PM

We have officially unlocked silver foiling for our case laminate cover! It will be so gorgeous and I am elated that we have unlocked this one. 

We are so close to unlocking our next stretch goal -- Foiled Bookmarks! Once we hit $3000 we get foil upgrades for the bookmarks that go to all the physical tiers with paper packages! After that, we have digital coloring pages for ALL backers. Then we'll work towards another art commission for a new vellum insert and digital illustration.

Those fancy upgrades we all want to see are getting closer and closer to becoming a reality. I have to hit a certain funding amount to be able to justify the print run that will get us those fancy extras, but it is on the horizon! If you're hoping for details like sprayed edges, dual sided dust jackets, and fancy dust cover font treatment...keep sharing and telling everyone that you're looking forward to getting this special edition in your hands! Let's crush more stretch goals <3

Thank you again for backing this project. I appreciate all of your support and am so excited to create something beautiful with you and for you.

I am so excited to update everyone and let you know that we reached our funding goal in less than an hour today! It's been a busy, surreal kind of day and I'm so grateful to all of the early backers who helped get this campaign on a roll. I am so humbled by the amount of support that showed up for this project on day one. Thank you so much.

Let's talk about the fun stuff. I know everyone is excited for stretch goals and I hope you are just as eager as I am to make this book get all the extra features. 

Good news! While I was running around at soccer practice with my kids, we soared right through the first stretch goal!

$1500 - Nell's handwritten poetry pages

Rae's younger sister, Nell, loves to write poetry even though it's prohibited in Orogi. I'll be adding three pages of Nell's handwritten poetry and doodles to the end of the book as bonus content. 

The next stretch goal is right around the corner and it's a good one! If we hit $2500, the gorgeous case laminate cover will get silver foil treatment. How gorgeous will that be?!?

Thank you to all who backed. Please tell your friends how excited you are about The Timeless Trials and encourage people to take a look. Every referral, every share, has the potential to help us get closer to the foil and fancy printed edges that we're all hoping to get!
