The Blue Beacon is preparing for launch

A Kickstarter is imminent.

Readers, there’s progress to report.

Last week I received the first 27 copies of The Blue Beacon and I love how the book looks. Here’s a video of the unboxing.

With the books in hand, I was able to film a Kickstarter video and put the finishing touches on the 30-day campaign. We are sooooo close.

For those unfamiliar, Kickstarter is a site built to fund creative work through crowdsourcing. Learning how to do a Kickstarter was a whole process, but I feel thrilled about how the campaign is coming together. Since this project is ready to go, a Kickstarter campaign will mostly serve as a way to take pre-orders for The Blue Beacon’s first major print run.

Since I posted that unboxing, all sorts of folks are asking how to get their copy. You’ve been patient in awaiting this book and I’m so eager to share it with you.

I’ll also need your help, especially on that first day. The goal with Kickstarter campaigns is to get family, friends, and existing network to fund as much as possible on Day 1, then use that momentum to draw in other supporters. So stay tuned for more announcements very soon and we’ll make this project happen together.

Thanks in advance, friends.💚
