Book 18 Kickstarter Closes FRIDAY

Here’s the Kickstarter link for Mandatory Failure: Schlock Mercenary Book 18.

The project closes this Friday, October 20th, at 5pm Eastern time. I’d love for you to not miss out on it.

If you’ve never purchased a Schlock Mercenary book before, this is a great place to start. Mandatory Failure functions well as a stand-alone story, but it’s also the first book in the capstone trilogy for all of Schlock Mercenary. See, I wrote Books 18, 19, and 20 as a trilogy because that structure helped me keep things focused—no small challenge when wrapping up a story that took me twenty years to write.

Anyway, the Kickstarter… we’ve unlocked some ship coins, and a mission patch, and some desktop wallpapers. If you want any of those (especially the mission patch, which is a Kickstarter Exclusive) you should back the project now, before it closes.

Here’s the link, just in case you scrolled past it…

Not only have we funded, but we’ve reached some stretch goals, too! Click here to visit the Kickstarter and see the latest news.

The project will run until October 20th of 2023. Back it early to ensure that you don’t miss out on the bonus goodies, and to help us afford even more bonus goodies.

A Little Immortality: The Kickstarter!

We’ve launched the Kickstarter for A Little Immortality: Schlock Mercenary Book 17, and it has already funded.

Also, it has already blown past all but one of our original stretch goals, including one that gives everybody (not just backers—everybody) a free desktop wallpaper.

Our plan was to launch it *quietly* on Tuesday, and then announce it here a day later in order to see how our newsletter was performing, but the launch was not quiet, and then things got busy, and now the “a day later” is more than half a day gone.

I’d write more, but everything I want to say is over on the Kickstarter project page, so click that and learn all the things!

Two Days Left!

We’re in the final two days of the BIG DUMB OBJECTS Kickstarter project. I’m not as far along on my deliverables as I want to be (the cover is still a few hours from being finished), but we’re on track to get the books, slipcases and add-ons delivered on time.

Click through NOW if you want to get a sketch edition. And if you need a slipcase for your Schlock Mercenary books, now is a good time to reserve yours. Those things take up a lot of warehouse space, and the margins on them are really slim, so we don’t overprint by much.

We’re excited to put this book in your hands, and very happy to have overfunded enough to make some other very cool things.
