The first stretch goal is for the individual character art, as shown below. As well as being added to the interior of the book, these gorgeous pictures will also be included in the digital art packs as well as A4 Art Prints and Postcards (FREE in the Book Box or as ADD-ONS for the other tiers).
The next stretch goal will be unlocked when we reach Β£2,500 and is for upgraded bookmarks from paper to metal. These bookmarks will come with charms and beads that tie in with the book.

Welcome to Midnight Blade MC
Welcome to the deliciously dark and spicy world of the Midnight Blade MC
If you love dark MC romance with a paranormal twist and lots of spicy action, then you'll love Ruthless Wolves. These bike loving men... or should I say, wolves... like to play hard and ride even harder.
Edit
Wolf shifter Elspeth Brooks gave up on finding a good man ages ago. When a vengeful biker club descends upon the pub where she works, the last thing she expects is her fated mate to be one of them. An MC member. He may be dangerous and tempting, but memories of her abusive ex dog her, making her doubt every choice she makes, especially in love.
Another day and another rogueβthat's all life seems to be for Ajax Blackwood and his clubβs brothers. Up until a year ago, the Midnight Blade MC wolf pack had lived peacefully on the outskirts of Eastward, but that changed the day a rogue wolf murdered their alpha and ignited a chain of events each more deadly than the last. As if a dangerous game of whack-a-mole for the life of his pack brothers isnβt enough, now heβs found his mate, the luscious, alluring Elspeth, who rejects his every advance.
With rogues circling to rip apart and take over the pack, Ajax must convince Elspeth to trust once more before they both lose everything theyβve ever wantedβeach other.
This book contains mature themes and explicit scenes.

The Storytellers Oracle Deck is a multi-author project spanning a variety of genres. Each author has designed a card that distills the essence of their book or one of their characters. Put them all together and you have a truly unique Oracle deck that can be used for divination or displayed however you see fit.
Each author will offer their own card plus a two-card starter deck in their Backerkit or Kickstarter campaign. Back as many campaigns as you'd like to assemble your Oracle deck. These campaigns will be staggered throughout the year and on-going into the years to come, resulting in an ever growing, ever evolving deck.

This is the bit I dread doing because I never know what to say, but I'll give it a go.
For those that don't know me, I'm Georgina Stancer and I write mostly paranormal and fantasy romance. I began writing in 2015 and published my first book in 2018. I currently have 10 books published across 3 series (one of which is part of a multi-author shared world).
I'm originally from London, but I moved to the coast 21 years ago where I met my partner and I've been here ever since. I have 3 beastly children who are all mostly adults now and 2 fur-babies, a husky named Sox and a tuxedo cat named Binx (yep, he was named after Binx from Hocus Pocus). When I'm not writing, I'm either home-educating my youngest child or studying for my own exams.

Therena Carlin is one of the artists behind the scenes. She has created both cover art versions for this campaign, character art, pin badges, custom chapter headers & scene breaks, plus so much more. Not only is Therena an amazing artist, but she's also a wonderful photographer and author (I have her books sitting on my shelves and they are stunning π). Check out her campaign for Deluxe Hardcovers of Star Found & Star Awakened.
Tatiana Art is the second artist for this project. She has created the individual character art for both Elspeth and Ajax.
Catherine L. Fullo is the third artist. She has created the cute chibi characters.

I'm giving a generous timeline of 10 to 12 months to account for any possible delays in the creative, production, and shipping process. Ruthless Wolves is currently in the creative phase, but it will be finished and ready for production to start early in the new year, but I will begin ordering the rewards once the campaign has ended. As soon as the physical books and rewards are with me, I will begin signing and shipping them out. Ebooks will be delivered via Bookfunnel once I have the physical books in stock.
I want to give you the best book and rewards possible, so I won't be rushing any part of the process. The contents of the book and all the artwork will be human created, which takes time, especially if we reach certain stretch goals (like more artwork), but it will be worth it in the end. I will also be using smaller independent businesses where possible for the physical rewards.

Shipping is already expensive enough, so there will be no additional costs added on top and I will not be rounding up. I'll only charge the fees associated with the project and what it costs to send to each destination for the parcel size and weight.
Shipping will be charged closer to fulfilment to avoid possible over or under charging. I will be signing all physical books before sending them out, so all books/physical tiers will be sent from the UK. I will be using Royal Mail Tracked & Signed where possible. Anything over 2kg for international backers will be sent via Parcel Force.
Here is a rough estimate on the costs per weight for some countries.

The reason I've decided to go down the crowdfunding route with this series from the start is because I wanted to offer more than just a standard ebook or paperback. I wanted to do something special that wouldn't be available anywhere else. Something that would only ever be available direct from me. Gorgeous special edition paperbacks and hardbacks with custom art, both inside and out.
By backing this campaign, not only will you be the first to read the story before it's released, but you can also get your hands on some exclusive rewards, which wouldn't be possible without crowdfunding.
