Firstly, I am overwhelmed by the support of this community, my friends, family, and readers. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making this project successful. We have just a few hundred dollars more to raise to unlock all four parts of A Dragon for Darius. I am forever grateful.
On the campaign front:
I will be taking the Darius Postcard poll down later today and tallying where the Early Bird postcards came from. I feel like Yellowstone is a given and probably the Himalayas. Did you know Jade Dragon Snow Mountain is a real place in China? (Link takes you to Wikipedia.) The mountain range is high, similar to the Himalayas, but it is not part of them. It looks gorgeous.
Sample Postcard
Postcards were an incentive for the first 48 hours. They are also an extra in the Fallen Collections. They offer extra world-building and character insight, along with the minor mystery of who Darius is sending them to. Otherwise, they are an enjoyable extra to have with the books and not required reading.
Since we are so close to unlocking all four books, we have a new achievement. If we can unlock the last one by November 7th, when Drake and Darius are doing a pre-recorded Q&A on the Book Bazaar's Twitch channel, every physical award will include hummingbird stickers.
Do you know someone who would like to join us? Send them our way. Or, if you haven't yet backed, now is the perfect time! If you'd like to update your pledge, the second and third books along with their matching bookmarks are now available as add-ons.
I feel like I need to prep another stretch goal. Let me take a look at things.
Did you know:
A Dragon for Darius is just one of 39 projects in the Book Bazaar, an indie author collaboration event. Back three projects and earn bookmarks from each project. Back ten projects and receive a copy of the Bazaar's anthology. (39 shorts, poems, and/or art pieces by this year's participants.) The bookmark you earn for backing this project and at least two others is not an Auspicious Hummingbird bookmark, but rather a unique one featuring Chinese traditional art with hummingbird overlays.
Back three projects in the Book Bazaar to earn this bookmark and others.
Again, thank you so much for your support and interest in my Dragon Story. I'm looking forward to sharing it with you.
If we can free all four hummingbirds before the Darius and Drake Stream ends on November 7th, all reward packages will include hummingbird stickers. (physical and/or art files)
