tales from the fermi resolution

Oh, hey: I have an adventure for a stretch goal for the Backerkit!

That being THE FERMI RESOLUTION WORLDBOOK (teaser page and launch party). When I playtested the rules, I actually ran an adventure (based on a story from TALES FROM THE FERMI RESOLUTION Vol 1) for it. This adventure will be an excellent stretch goal, when coupled with a short primer on how to run games set in that time period. In fact, I can do this with a bunch of short stories.

That may end up being useful, although I’m just doing one primer for this thing. Playtesting is, after all, a requirement.

The Kickstarter rewards have been mailed!

All except for a couple of people’s, because they didn’t fill out their surveys. If they see this: fill out your surveys. Otherwise I’ll keep trying to track them down. Everybody else: let me know if you don’t get your books.

Boxes came in! I can start processing Kickstarter orders tomorrow.

And thank goodness for that. I hope to have all the books signed and ready for shipping by the end of the week, and then it’s just a matter of getting the sampler in shape. Then the TALES FROM THE FERMI RESOLUTION Vol 2: LIGHTS IN THE DARKNESS Kickstarter is done. Huzzah!

Doing postage on the TALES FROM THE FERMI RESOLUTION 2 Kickstarter rewards.

Can’t mail them out today, because scheduling stuff, but I could calculate postage, so I did. …Oof. I knew it was going to be this bad, and I even budgeted it to be this bad, but seeing the money drain from my accounts still hurt like the dickens. I very well may have to raise my shipping rates for the next Kickstarter, and I am absolutely going to continue not having a foreign option. I’m sorry about that, but the fees are too damned high, and people can get the books locally.

If you did miss the Kickstarter, feel free to purchase TALES FROM THE FERMI RESOLUTION Vol 2: LIGHTS IN THE DARKNESS directly!

Don’t forget to review TALES FROM THE FERMI RESOLUTION 2!

Not that I want to nag on that – okay, yes, I do want to nag on that, but only because reviews are so vitally important to independent authors. So… rate and review TALES FROM THE FERMI RESOLUTION 2. Heck, rate and review my entire back catalog, which admittedly is starting to take on some heft. And then do it for all the other authors you read, too. They’ll thank you for it.

So, I didn’t get the books today.

The books being the Kickstarter reward copies of TALES FROM THE FERMI RESOLUTION Vol 2: LIGHTS IN THE DARKNESS (and the other rewards). They’re listed as “Delayed, Not Yet Shipped.” I’m hoping this is just a temporary problem and they’ll get them to out the door tomorrow. I mean, I have plenty of time to fulfill the order; it’s just that I worked to get them ready in time for September. It’s a little annoying for Amazon to fall down on the job like this.

Ach, well.

The TALES FROM THE FERMI RESOLUTION 2 Kickstarter pledges are being locked.

Check your emails. If you didn’t get one, let me know. Once they lock and I get the books, out they go! …And then I will be done with that project. Well, except for the short story sampler. That has to get whipped into shape. But the books will be out.

Two Days Left to preorder TALES FROM THE FERMI RESOLUTION 2!

Weirdness going on with the site. Dunno if this goes through. Please buy my book.
