Hey all,

Well, our goal of 'let the political BS settle and things go back to normal' is clearly not going to work out, so we're pressing forward regardless.

On Tuesday, we will be sending everything off to print. That will take some amount of time, but hopefully not more than a week or so. Then we'll get all the printed materials and start figuring out shipping to everyone. And then we'll ship it all out!

Thank you so much for your patience during this ridiculous time. When we started this project we had no idea that every day would bring some new disaster that would affect our ability to get the book(s) to you, but here we are. 

Luckily, none of our backers are from Kuwait or Qatar, so the VERY latest debacle will only affect gas prices, not the actual books themselves. 

Talk to you all once the boxes start arriving at the office and it's time to package them all up!

Squeezing JUST under the wire (Central time), we have sent out the first wave of e-Rewards.

This is the e-Book of Full Negative if you purchased a tier that offered that as a reward (everything above the $1 tier), the digital wallpaper (all tiers) and chapter 1 of the Setting Guide.

Chapters 2 and 3 of the Setting Guide will be out once we're good on the art for them. 

Have a happy holiday season if we don't talk to you again before your favorite winter holiday of choice.

Hey all,

Sorry for the radio silence. Jenn and I both assumed the other person was doing updates. That's 100% my fault, and I apologize.

We do have a few State of the League updates for you.

On Monday, Nov 30, we'll be sending out the e-books, wallpapers, Setting Guide Chapter 1 (2 and 3 need a little more art polish before we're ready for that).

As for physical stuff... 
Yeah. So. Thanks to Things Of Dubious Legality Happening In The US Right Now, the prices of all physical items went WAY up. We've been trying to find alternate vendors to get prices back down to 'reasonable.' Combine this with other hardships, and you have a recipe for 'the book isn't coming out when we wanted it to.' Which I REALLY hate. 

We are talking to some vendors about doing a limited print run to get y'all your rewards, it just might take a little longer. (And with the holiday season coming up fast, I'm not sure how timely vendor replies will be.)

Rest assured, we ARE working to get you your physical rewards as soon as we can. We beg for a little more patience. (We promise, this isn't a shell company for Certain Old White Guy Authors Whose Names We Wont Mention But Who Never Actually Release The Last Books Of Their Series.)

Hey all, Mike here (the behind-the-scenes guy-slash-emotional-support-person) with an update on the current timeline for Full Negative.

Unfortunately, Jenn got slammed with a ton of Other Work these last two months, including Day Job and edits for her next fantasy book, Green and Deadly Things. As a result, she a bit behind on formatting the book, but it's almost done.

But then, she has a business trip in the middle of August. 

As a result, we're looking at September for orders to be finalized.

That said, there are still some folks who haven't given us their addresses yet. We can't ship you stuff without your address. Unlike the Kantari in the book, WE don't have telepathy. 

If you ordered a digital-only tier or add-on, then your address doesn't need to be a part of this. But anyone who ordered any physical products, we gotta know where to send 'em. You guys are awesome, and we don't want to deprive you of your well-earned rewards.

Anyways, that's about it for now. Either Jenn or I will release another update when we get a bit closer, and again when we send everything off to be printed, and then when we get it back and start packing... you get the idea.

Stay hydrated, especially those of you in the Heat Dome Mad Max Wasteland that is most of the USA right now.
