I hope you’re enjoying this glorious Memorial Day weekend and I won’t take much of your time. I’m just trying to keep you folks in the loop about this Kickstarter and prep you for what’s ahead.
With a video in place and most every detail decided, The Blue Beacon Kickstarter campaign is ready to go. I even considered launching yesterday to surf some of my own birthday goodwill, but ultimately decided it’d be wiser to go on a bike ride than spend all day stuck in front of a Macbook.
Instead, I’m scheduling the campaign for next Tuesday morning, May 30th.
What I need from you
After months of research and considering how to do this right, a general plan for making this a successful Kickstarter has emerged.
My plan is to set a reasonable target goal so the first print run is funded fast, hopefully in the first day. A strong first day will propel the campaign into Kickstarter’s attention, and they’ll hopefully add momentum. After that, I’ll spend the rest of the campaign updating supporters, finding new ones, and building on The Blue Beacon’s initial success.
My point is, be ready next Tuesday!
For now, the Kickstarter’s Upcoming Project page is live, so you can go there to sign up and be notified as soon as the campaign launches.
Besides that, I’ll certainly send a message to all Cascadia Chronicles and Green Room readers when everything goes live. I’m so super psyched to bring this book to market, you guys! And I’m relying on all of you to turn this spark into a warm campfire.
Until then, thank you for all you’ve done to bring The Blue Beacon to fruition. The next 30 days are gonna be fun, and I plan to share plenty of the journey.
Let’s gooooooo!!!
