Production Underway!
23 days ago – Fri, May 15, 2026 at 03:10:22 PM

Hey All, 

After a lot of back and forth with file creation and formatting for all the foiling, edges, and art, the hardcovers are finally in production! I've worked with this same company for many of my past campaigns and typically once production starts it takes about eight weeks for them to arrive at my house. So I'm expecting the books will arrive in early July. Which is later than I initially anticipated but the good news is, I've recruited help with packaging the books and doing quality control checks. So they should go out very quickly once they arrive here. When the books are on their way to me I'll lock addresses and send a reminder to update addresses and things. (Expect that update forthcoming! Along with a first look at the production of the books). 
 

A Friend's Campaigns to Check Out

 

The Sanyare Chronicles series is Buffy meets Lord of the Rings: all the snark and action with the expansive world building and fantasy creatures of an epic adventure. If you like tales of myth, magic, and mayhem, featuring a fierce heroine and her snarky carnivorous pixie sidekicks, with a slow-burn clean romance and a fire-wielding dark elf prince, then you'll love these books!

Progress Report!

Hello All, 

Sorry for the delayed reply, if you follow me on social media you might have noticed I've been traveling a ton the last few months for events and things. March is another busy month but I didn't want more time to go by without an update. Good news is we've gotten our final reversible dustjacket for Blood and Thorns and this might be my favorite of the trio. 

Next step is finalizing the edge's design, and getting the interiors, jackets and all other elements formatted and ready for printing! 

More Campaigns To Check Out

Reversible Dust Jacket for Tangled in Thorns

Happy Fall, Ya'll! 

I hope you've had a cozy fall so far and if you're in the US had a lovely Thanksgiving! Things are progressing along towards the special edition printing, right now I'm waiting on two things. The final reversible dustjacket for Blood and Thorns, and the illustrated edge design to better meld together the typography cover and the illustrated reverse cover. I got back the dustjacket for Tangled in Thorns and I am absolutely obsessed with the moody vibes and purples (big purple girl here). It absolutely matches the book in my opinion. I will hopefully have a third dust jacket to reveal in the New Year and some edge designs to share as well. For now enjoy this gorgeous art by Lauren Richelieu!



A Late Pledge Opportunity:

My friend Vela Roth recently finished a campaign for stunning editions of her Blood Grace novels. Think epic fantasy, political schemes, slow burn romance and vampires. It's incredible and the designs of these books are even prettier! She's left late pledges enabled so be sure to check it out! 



 

November Update
7 months ago – Mon, Nov 03, 2025 at 08:40:10 AM

Hey All, 

Not much to update. I'm still waiting on art for the reversible dustjackets artwork and edges to be finished. But as of now we're still on schedule to have the books delivered before the original deadline (June 2026). 
 

Another Campaign You Should Check Out:

I backed this campaign from my friend Megan recently for special editions of her epic fantasy full of courage, betrayal, and hope. She's already unlocked sprayed edges, and end papers with ten days left and more to unlock!

All Surveys Sent!
8 months ago – Thu, Oct 09, 2025 at 04:23:05 PM

Hey All, 

As of now, everyone should have received their surveys, including those of you on payment plans and if you've filled it out you should have access to your digital downloads. We're currently sitting at 87% surveys filled out. If you haven't gotten your survey and you log into Kickstarter with your apple account please message me your email so I can update and resend your survey link. 

As for a progress update, there's a couple things I'm waiting on to progress forward. I need everyone to fill out surveys so I can finalize the credits page for formatting. I'm still waiting on art for the reversible dust jackets and I've decide to upgrades the sprayed edges to an illustrated design rather than the stock photo manipulation it is currently. Once we have all the art we need and the formatting is done, I can start production on the books. I'll keep you all updated as elements are finished!
