I know, that quote is from the end of Marvel's Avengers, and not from Alice in Wonderland *woop* *woop* genre-mixing alert :D
I'm leaving it anyway.
We're in the final stretch, all! Printopia and all associated book campaigns, including this one, wraps up in less than 48 hours. (Which you know because you already got a dozen emails today, and I'm adding another).
For good reason though! In the last few hours, we've passed another stretch goal and passed 50 Backers. WOO! That means every single backer will also get an ebook copy of the Hacking Wonderland sequel, Dismantling Wonderland. This is another full-length duet that picks up where the Hacking Wonderland books leave off, but... well... I can't say more without spoiling it. It is its own story though.
And these 2 additional books are currently unavailable anywhere else.
I need to commission cover art for this additional book so I've used a placeholder, but it will be just as gorgeous as the Hacking Wonderland book.
In addition, don't forget I've partnered with two other people for bonuses. If you back The Covenant of Blood campaign and both of our campaigns fund, we have some beautiful digital art for you
I made a poll last week to send out with an update, and then realized today that neither update nor poll went out. Ack!
So let's try this again :D
We're in the last week of the campaign, and your support has been overwhelming. We're only 3 backers away from unlocking the sequel to Hacking Wonderland - Dismantling Wonderland. Reminder, at 50 backers, everyone will get an ebook copy of Dismantling Wonderland (the unreleased sequel to this series), and you'll have the option to add-on physical versions as well.
For those of you who love audiobooks... or twisty turny suspense (which you do love because you're here ;) ), don't forget I've got a cross-collab offer going wth J.S. Living. If you back both of our campaigns, you get some gorgeous digital art featuring both of our main characters.
And because I love The Covenant of Blood book and very much want to hear it in audio, the two of us want to offer something additional if we can get both campaigns past the funding finish line.
So, here's the deal: We're going to offer you a second FREE Digital Print for backing both of our projects. But, ya'll are going to have to work for it. Here are the rules for this to happen:
First and foremost, both projects MUST FUND, mine specifically MUST FUND AT $3500. Otherwise, it won't happen. Apologies, but this is the only way we can ensure this additional offer is free to everyone. For your convenience, here are the links to both our projects.
Second, the type of digital print you receive will be wholly dependent on the number of cross-collab backers. Here's the breakdown:
At 50% cross-collab backers, we will offer a print that contains line art of our two characters. You got a glimpse of them in the current cross-collab poster, but we want to show you what they look like in their final forms. This version will not have a background.
At 75% cross-collab backers, we will add a background. We already have ideas, we're just finalizing them.
At 85% cross-collab backers, we will add color to just the characters. The background will remain black and white.
And, if we reach 100% cross-collab, meaning all of you back both projects, the digital art will be fully colored!
So, to recap: The more of you who back both projects, the better the new digital print will be! But you only receive it if both projects fund. And, the reward is one digital print. Here's a very bad mockup of what we're thinking for the full print (for instance, those are chess pieces, not Reagan's battery operrated boyfriends ;) ). Of course, we're hiring a human artist to turn this into a masterpiece. But, let us know what you think!
Our poll is closed, and you've all spoken - more of you are Team Hatter.
Which helped me make a decision, so thank you! We've met our first achievement, and are at $2000 in funding this morning. Which means we've unlocked a bonus chapter - one of the existing chapters from Reagan Through the Looking Glass, in Hatter's POV!
This bonus scene will go to all backers, as a thank you for tumbling down the rabbit hole with me!
And I have another announcement... There is a sequel to Hacking Wonderland called Dismantling Wonderland. This was partially released years ago, but wasn't available for long. I'd love to make the whole story available now. I can't tell you much about it because there are so many twists and turns in Hacking Wonderland that I don't want to spoil anything. So how about I say... This is Dormouse's story. IYKYK :D
So... if we reach 50 backers, I'll make this book available. Every backer will get the ebook version, and you'll have the option to add it to your pledge in paperback or hardback as well.
Dropping a quick note to say Happy Friday! And to thank everyone who's backed so far. We reached our initial funding goal yesterday, which is amazing.
And this gives me a good excuse to drop into your inbox and chat and introduce you to some pieces of Hacking Wonderland if you're new to me.
First - after checking and double checking everything before go-live yesterday, I realized I didn't make any add-ons for additional copies of the book. Those are there now - so if you want more than one copy of Hacking Wonderland, or if you want more than one format (paperback to read, hardback as a trophy for your bookshelf) whatever, you can edit your pledge and add those in the add-ons section.
Next... I have something fun to announce, but not until next week. Mostly because I can't make up my mind about what I want to do. So to help me, I've made a poll. I need to know if you like Hatter or Hare better. Click Here to answer before Monday morning.
And Monday, I'll be back with my fun news!
Until next time... Stay geeky, stay sexy, and enjoy your trip down the rabbit hole!

When reach a 50% cross-collaborator backer count, my cross-collab partner and me will offer a FREE Digital Character print with two characters (line art only).

Special edition books are pretty on a bookshelf, and I always wonder how many people give them reading love as well. So I'm curious, what book format do you go to first for reading?
I've heard multiple perspectives on this, so I'd love to know your take...
When you get a special edition from an author, do you love having their signature as well?
