Project Update: Ruthless Wolves Update #19

Hey gorgeous

A quick update today. The story is moving along, albeit, slowly at the moment. I've had a few health problems the last couple of weeks, which has hampered my progress, but hopefully things are starting to pick back up now.

As long as the characters behave themselves, I should still be on track to finish early in the new year. Once the book is finished, it'll spend some time in editing before being sent to Beta readers. After I've received the feedback from the Beta team, I'll do some final tweaks and formatting and then it'll be sent off for printing.

I don't have a timeline for production and shipping just yet, but I'll post an update as soon as I have that information.

Just a reminder that I will be locking surveys at the end of December. I'm still waiting on a few people to fill in their surveys, so if you haven't filled yours in yet, please do so by the end of this month.

Much love and happy reading
Georgina x

Project Update: Ruthless Wolves Update #18

Hey gorgeous, 


Look what arrived today! A box full of Midnight Blade MC enamel pin badges 😍
The skull is black, but it comes with a little surprise that makes it appear lighter in some angles/lights. I'm not going to give away the surprise, but I think you'll love it as much as I do!


Surveys won't be locked until at least the end of December, so there's still time to add one of the MC enamel pins to your rewards pack. I'll post an update and send out an email before locking the surveys. After that time, you'll no longer be able to adjust your survey because I'll need the final numbers to order the books and the rest of the rewards.

There are still a few outstanding surveys, so if you haven't filled it in yet, please do so as soon as possible.

Once the surveys have been locked and I have all of the books/rewards, I'll be able to work out and add shipping costs before charging cards (this will be next year closer to fulfillment). Then it'll be time to lock shipping addresses and begin fulfillment. I'll post updates and send emails before each stage in the process, giving you plenty of notice before locking/charging/fulfillment begins.

Thank you for going on this journey with me ❤️ I can't wait for you to receive your books and rewards! 😍

Much love and happy reading
Georgina x

P.s. Digital rewards will be sent when physical fulfillment is ready to begin.

Project Update: Ruthless Wolves Update #17

Hey gorgeous,

I had planned on posting this update on Sunday after Mr K and I returned from Shrewsbury, but I was exhausted and in pain from traveling, so I took the night off. The trip was well worth the pain, though. I had an amazing time in Shrewsbury Prison for the Author's Behind Bars signing event! I got to meet and chat with so many wonderful readers as well as spend time with my fellow authors. And the prison setting was just epic! Unfortunately, I didn't get my own cell because there was a problem with the lights (I'm convinced a ghost was behind the problems), but I had a great time sharing the prisoner kitchen with Jade West's PA's (unfortunately Jade couldn't be there) and author Tracy Jukes.

Right, that's enough signing event talk. Now it's time for the update. The poll has ended for the colour of the skull and there was a clear winner. The black skull received 100% of the votes 🥳 I must admit, I do love this design exactly as it is 😍
 
Midnight Blade MC Enamel Pin

I've already placed the order and production has begun on the Midnight Blade MC pin, but the good news doesn't end there. My collab partner, Cara, has received both parts of the collab pin badges and she's sent me some pictures! Cara will be sending my pins over to me soon 😊


I have received some more goodies! The Booktopia Oracle Cards arrived while I was in Shrewsbury and they are lush 😍 I can't wait to see the complete pack together with the box!

Booktopia Oracle Cards

One more thing before I go. Now that I'm back from Author's Behind Bars, I can finally make a start on Ruthless Wolves. I only have the last couple of chapters to hash out, but I'm sure they will come to me as I begin to write (the story will probably change slightly by then as well 😅). The first draft begins tomorrow 😊

Much love and happy reading

Project Update: Ruthless Wolves Update #16

Hey gorgeous,


I have some exciting news to share! The first book in the Midnight Blade MC series, Savage Wolves, has now been released into the wild, which means my attention has turned to Ruthless Wolves. I've almost finished with the rough outline, which should be done by the end of next week, so I plan on starting the first draft once I'm back from the Author's Behind Bars signing event next weekend (Nov 9th). I have a lot of prep work to get done between now and the signing, so I won't be able to make a start beforehand.

I have a couple of updates about the other rewards. I have most of the postcards and Storyteller's Oracle Cards already, but the good news is, the Booktopia Oracle Cards are now on their way to me as well. I've also been working with my collab partner, Cara, on the pin badges. We want both halves to fit together perfectly, like in the pictures we've shared, so we decided to order both parts together as one order. Both Cara and the manufacturer are based in the USA, so to save on shipping costs and time, the cross collab pins badges will be sent to Cara and then she'll forward mine to me. They've already been sent to production and will hopefully be shipped to Cara soon. Once she's confirmed they're on the way to me, I will post an update.

I've also been in talks with another manufacturer about the Midnight Blade MC logo pin badge. After a little back and forth about the colour of the skull, the manu have sent me these two mock-ups. I love both versions, but alas, there can only be one. I can't decided between the two, so I need your help. Which one do you prefer? Black Skull or White Skull? Vote for your favourite on the attached poll by Sunday 10th November 😊

Much love and happy reading
Georgina x

P.s. I'm going to start numbering these updates so it's easier to keep track of what information is in which update.



If you love enamel pin badges, then you won't want to miss Pintopia in January 2025

I will be taking part in Pintopia with my own Witchy Vibes & Smut Lovers Club Enamel Pins 😊

Project Update: Letters from the Frontier, #29

Or more like, letters from the future. I hope you all enjoyed the in character updates during the campaign! WE FUNDED!!! And hit some stretch / community goals to boot. I’m working with BackerKit to figure out how to send the survey to get your rewards, which is much more involved and confusing than I first imagined. So sorry that is taking so long to send. Also, my partner Shiloh will be sending out the cross collab reward on my behalf so don’t worry when it’s not in your package! More updates soon, including a date for a livestream! And since the carnies won the trivia challenge, I’ll have something special for you all soon as well.
If we reach 50 carnies, I’ll release chapters 2 & 3!
Goal: 50 backers reached! — We did it! This project reached this goal!

If we reach 75 carnies, I’ll host a livestream!

Remember that if you want to upgrade your pledge you can do so very easily by heading to “manage your pledge”.

Thank you all!

Project Update: $262 Away from the digital coloring pages, upgraded map and piano arrangement download!

I am blown away! I truly am! Thank you so much! I am humbled by your love and support. Thank you to all those who have shared on social media or have told your friends! Keep sharing. It makes a huge difference!

With just 30 hours or so away from our finishing line, we have just a few hundred dollars left to unlock all the digital goodies! WE CAN DO IT!

Don't forget about my amazing collab partner! I had a lovely chat with her last Saturday and we have so much in common. She also loves Japanese anime. If you haven't had a chance to check out her project, I highly recommend hopping over there. She is also fully funded. I was impressed with her story when we talked during our streaming event. And she just seems like an amazing person.  PLUS if you back both projects at a physical tier, you get six oracle cards delivered with your goodies. Thanks for taking part in Booktopia! It's been so much fun!

And here's your free ebook for today.

The Curse Of The Arcadian Stone

Thank you so much for this amazing journey and rush to the finish line! Thank you for being here and being apart of the magic!
Once we reach $3000, we will upgrade both maps and include a digital download for an arrangement of a song and get digital downloads for coloring pages!
Goal: $3,000 reached! — We did it! This project reached this goal!

Hey, hey future Bloodlings! 

I hope all is well. I'm sending out updates and getting ready to fulfill everyone's pledges, but there's just something I have to know: 

For those who haven't pledged yet, what's stopping you? 

I'd love to include you in my decision-making process, but the only way I can do that is if you respond to my polls and discussions. So, be honest with me. 

In fact, make it as brutal as it needs to be, because I value your opinion and I'm hoping to build a long-term community. 

So, drop a comment telling me what I can do better, or if there's something I need to explain better, or just to vent. Whatever it is, let me know in the comments, and I'll do my best to offer you the reward you deserve. 

Thanks!

Project Update: Letters from the Frontier, #21

Time is of the essence, matron, so I’ll make this message quick! Your gold was safely delivered via portal, giving me the resources to survive in Crownhill. For that, I am most grateful.

I will host a magic lesson, as you commanded, once I am home. And yes, yes, I give you permission to record it too.



I’ve been in touch with a fellow traveler, Shiloh Walker, who will share her most popular assassin manual with our coven and any new recruits before I’m scheduled to return home five days from now! *** (Current backers and backers within the final week will get a FREE eBook). It is always a pleasure to support other Sisters of the Sword.

Mark my words, matron, Jacob Mosley will be in his grave before midnight strikes and this ghost town will be freed.

For now, I lie in wait for the opportune hour one week from today. Until then, wait for me.

Your Faithful Servant,

Nicolette

Project Update: Choose your team! We are going to play a game...and all of you can win a prize!

And it's a game where nobody loses...unless you just don't play.

There will be a series of questions and as long as you participate in 80% of the questions, you'll get a prize, a little symbol of Ivy's heritage, to be mailed out with your rewards when it's time.

The questions will be posted in the polls...but be warned. As the poll progressed, people might figure out Ivy's secret.

If you don't want to have the secret spoiled...well, I guess you shouldn't play. However, there are layers to her secrets. Like ogres and onions. Cakes and parfaits. Yes, that's a Shrek reference. And some of that secret, you will never guess without reading the story.

Now...pick your team!

FYI, team names don't indicate *anything* at this point other than that's just the name you like, although, you will see this list again.

Project Update: Lazaro’s Diary (May 12, 1893)

A week in the White City, but I’m no closer to rescuing Nicolette. Thankfully, Wolfgang and his men were able to secure some extra firepower for me before I enter the vampire’s blood den. But if I can get more… maybe Webster’s head can be skewered on a pike sooner rather than later.

+4 Comic Pages ($2,000) LOCKED 🔒


Merch Upgrade ($3,000) LOCKED 🔒


In the meantime, Ms. Button has brought me my target’s suitcase. It’s filled with some rather… peculiar items, and many volumes of literature. Some more entertaining than others. Most with a hint of romance, and all featuring their fair share of action and adventure.

I’ve thumbed through them for clues, and must say Ryan’s spectacular tale of time traveling to the Middle Ages kept me entertained. Brown’s grotesque horror was almost as thrilling as slaying real monsters, and a much safer thrill.

Sheng is foreign born, but his artwork delights, a dark fantasy filled with maidens and magic I would have killed for as a boy. Finally a heart-pounding romance featuring gangs and werewolves. This one was more to Nicolette’s taste, I reckon, but gave me insight into her desires.








The final item in the suitcase was the most baffling of them all. A metallic feather 🪶 bookmark left at the scene of the crime. A distraction or a clue? I would think it belonged to Nicolette, but Button doesn’t recognize it. Her whole disappearance is a mystery yet to be unraveled. For now, I’ll keep the bookmark and all her possessions handy, and have a werewolf track her scent.

(Backers OR followers who answer all the polls correctly between now and the end of the campaign will enter a raffle to win a metallic feather bookmark created by my collab-partner! Are you Team Carnie or Automaton? The winning team at the end of the campaign will also get a secret special perk!)

Project Update: Excerpt from Thread of a Spider

After enjoying a few days with the Fae, Paddy learned that they are planning a special ceremony just for him.
By John Bauer - Illustration of Alfred Smedberg's The seven wishes in Julbocken, 1907, Public Domain


“That’s it, then?” Paddy blurted, disgusted. What Alastar was suggesting was more than he wanted to deal with. “You stole me away. Friended me. Trained me, promised me you’d help my family and friends, and now you tell me there are strings attached?”

“Not strings. Wings.”

“Oh, begging my pardon! That’s what I meant. Wings.” Paddy snickered and tossed a stone over the cliff. The pebble bounced against the boulders and disappeared. “So, off I’ll fly and help you win your battle, and then what shall I do with my wings when I go home?”

Alastar didn’t respond.

“What? I don’t go home?” Paddy pried for an answer, but he didn’t get one. Were the Fae suggesting he would change from a human being into a faerie forever? Was that how they kidnapped children? By luring them into something wonderful and then asking them to give up who they were? His admiration for Alastar was diminishing.

The music had begun again, and Alastar’s attention turned to the dancers. The female Fae had joined the soldiers in their jig, and there was much laughing and merriment. The meadow sparkled with joy. Paddy scooted against a lichen-covered rock. The celebration made him homesick. Everyone back home danced. All his friends, relatives, and neighbors would gather in the park, bring their favorite food and drink, and strike up a tune on their harps and uilleann pipes. Why, even this week a cèilidh was planned in Kilbritteny to raise funds for the Volunteers. He would miss the celebration if he stayed here. The money was going to be used to buy guns for the Volunteers.
Paddy moved restlessly. His duty was elsewhere, not with the Fae folk. This had all been a crazy mistake, and it was time to get away.

He hadn’t noticed that Alastar slipped away and joined the others. Nor was he aware when Periwinkle took the Fianna’s place. She surprised him when she interrupted his thoughts.

“Today was a good day, Pádraig,” she said softly. “We worked and played and loved one another. And now the sun leaves us in a symphony of color. What a beautiful sunset!”

Paddy was still in his memories, still wishing he were home with his mother and father and Ailis, and with Michael—his older brother who had left for America after the Great War, and whom he missed terribly. He opened his eyes but failed to see the beauty she spoke of.

“It’s not fair,” he said.

“What’s not fair?”

“Me being here while my friends at home are fighting to survive. Dying.”

“I’m sorry your people are at war,” Periwinkle said, though she didn’t sound sorry. “Humans are unkind to each other. The Fae cannot change their hearts.”

“You’re not a smidgeon better than they are, what with you robbing me away to fight your war when I should be home fighting mine.” Paddy breathed deeply.

“Give this careful thought, Pádraig. What we’ve given you is a far better choice than what you were facing. Should you return now, you’re a fugitive.”

His body stiffened. All the options were laid out in front of him and none of them were choices he wanted. “It’s my family I aspire to be with. That’s all. I just want things to be right,” he said.

Periwinkle took the hem of her robe and touched his eyes with the magic fabric. His worry left him instantly and strength returned to him. “Did Alastar explain your initiation?”

“About wings? Yes. That’s the problem.”

“Once you go through the ceremony, you’ll be with us in whole,” Periwinkle urged. “Then you will have no doubts.”

The dancing had ceased, but many of the Fae folk lingered. Some gathered around him and Periwinkle and listened to their conversation. They seemed to be drawn to Paddy’s sadness. They looked at him with sympathetic eyes.

“You have a home with us, whatever you fancy,” one Fianna said as he sat at Paddy’s feet. “I was a lad just like you. Lived in Limerick. We were well-off for the most part, busy as any family in the city. My sisters were all older and had little time for me. I was hardly a speck of lint on the windowsill until the Fae came and took me away. Scared to grow wings I was, but I couldn’t help but wish to fly, seeing how free the Fianna were. I could never be happier than I am now. I would wager the same be for you.”

“Why would you want to go back?” another boy wondered. “There’s no light in that world. Sunlight, but not the kind of light that lifts your spirits. Here we make our own light,” he said.

“We’re here for you, Pádraig,” a little girl faerie said. Her wings fluttered gently as she sat on his knee. “I hope you choose to stay. You will never have to hide in the thorny bushes again.”

“I like you being here, Paddy.” Tommy came to his side.

Tommy—of all the people in this crazy world, Tommy should have understood why Paddy wanted to go home. He was Paddy’s friend and knew his family. But Tommy was young and an orphan, and maybe he was put under a Fae spell of some sort, because he didn’t understand.

“You’re my friend, Paddy. You made things right for me when I was alone. I’d like you to stay.”

Paddy looked him in the eyes. It didn’t seem like this was the same Tommy at all.

“Let’s let Pádraig have some time to think,” Periwinkle said as she urged the Fae away. “This is a big step for him.”

Just then, a guard called out, interrupting the mood and startling everyone. “Lady Periwinkle! Come quickly! Someone has disturbed the gateway!”

Periwinkle turned her attention to the Fianna rushing toward her.

Project Update: Lazaro’s Diary (May 6, 1893)

I’ve arrived. If I’ll survive is yet to be determined. 

Thankfully, my smugglers got what I needed just in time. But it’s only enough to find my target, not carry out my secret mission—eradicating the vampires too far gone to be tamed, under the control of R. W. Webster and his demented carnies.

For that, I’ll have to go underground, and work my connections.

But Chicago isn’t too bad, I suppose, despite the roving werewolf gangs, blood-drunk vampire junkies, and other oddities on the streets.

And while I don’t trust little Ms. Button, the freakshow’s leader, she’s been more helpful than I imagined she’d be.

She’s small in stature, but has a big heart. Button’s also a surprisingly talented artist, as well. She’s provided a sketch of Nicolette that has proven very helpful.

Let’s just hope I get to her before Roadkill kills her first.

Project Update: Letters from the Frontier, #5 (NSFW)

Greetings Matron,

By sunrise, I will arrive at Crownhill, ready to face the supernatural entity that resides there. The conductor of this ghostrail is an overly chatty fellow, but I don’t mind the living company much. It’s a welcome change from the chilly reception I’ve received from the living dead so far.

The Frontier remains more mystery than mapped, harsh and unforgiving. You and I both know the first forty-eight hours investigating a murder or disappearance is crucial. And, we are well aware that recruiting friends when facing demonic familiars is of equal importance.

So I’m sending you this letter in hopes that you can send reinforcements my way.

Finally, while I enjoyed the literature you placed in my suitcase, please reprimand Imperial Wizard Pierre swiftly! I know he was the last to possess that grimoire.

While thumbing through the historical document, vulgarities slipped from the pages and gave my fellow passengers quite a fright! I worried they’d meet their untimely ends a second time by the looks on their ghastly faces.

FREE for First 48 Hour Backers

FREE for Returning Kickstarter Backers

Time is short, and so I must end my musings. Until we meet again, Dear Matron, I endeavor to never allow the Department of Magic and Alchemy to be disgraced. Your faith in my abilities fills me with gratitude  more than you’ll ever know.

Your Most Humble and Obedient Servant,

Nicolette

Project Update: 📨 Final Call: 22 Surveys Needed, Lockdown on Dec 13! and lower shipping fees!

Hi All,

I REALLY want to lock orders, but I have 22 people who have not filled out a survey.  Your response helps me ensure you receive your rewards correctly (including names in the books). So this is final call!  I will lock orders on Dec 13 and order that weekend.

Once I lock the orders, then I can't put the missing people's names in the book (After they fill out the survey).  I will still add you to the website, but names would not make it into the book. 

Also, I had a typo in the weight of the oracle box. This means that anyone who got the extra bonus, will now 
have less shipping cost.  This will happen automagically even if you have already filled out your survey.

Woot!

Thank you!

Project Update: Signed, Sealed, and (on the way to be) Delivered!

Hello hello!

Good news, everyone's physical copies have been shipped. In addition, all eBook rewards are available on BackerKit right now!



I was supposed to receive the delivery as of last week, but instead I received them December 6th. To make sure they (hopefully) arrive in the month of December, I sent them out as soon as I could. 

If you have any trouble with any of the eBook files, please feel free to reach out and let me know! I'll try and resolve it as soon as possible!

Once again, I really want to thank you all for your support. I'm happy to be able to get this all out and get working on the next book in the series. 

If you want any tracking information and don't receive it by tomorrow morning (10 am PST), reach out to me and let me know. I have all orders and tracking numbers easily accessible.

As for the cross-collab reward, it's still cooking. Apparently orchestral pieces take time to compose, conduct and record? I'll give you updates as soon as I have them.

Thanks again, hope you all get your copies soon!

Project Update: Things are still happening.

I know, it looks like nothing is going on. But things are going on. :)

Surveys have not yet been sent because I learned my printer was bringing out a cool new option, and I want to offer it to you if feasible. That means waiting until they've finalized their production and pricing to me, which is taking longer than they originally suggested.

That's the holdup on surveys, and the very worst-case scenario is that we don't bring in the new thing and we deliver as originally planned. (This of course is not delaying production or fulfillment, both of which had 2025 dates.) I'll get surveys out as soon as I have fixed numbers!

In the meantime, if you'd like more regular (monthly) updates on this and other projects, plus holiday cards, discount codes, and more, you can sign up over here

Thank you, and have an awesome December!

Project Update: We're back!

Everyone,

Sorry for the delay, and we are so HAPPY to have the computer back and running.  Seriously, I had to close Facebook to open another window...it was painfully slow and would not open and scroll anything from the cloud. 

Anyway, we are back and working on the finishing touches for Magical Garden. We hope to have that ready by this weekend, and we'll send out the new versions of the ebooks.  (For those of you ordering the other Enchanted Fairytale ebooks, we'll also send out the new versions with the recipes.)

Once that's done, we can finish formatting the paperbacks and get those out to you as soon as possible.

Thank you and have a wonderful week!

Project Update: Pneumonia and other things

Hi Amazing Backer,

Time is flying. Unfortunately, we've hit a little writing hiccup (but that is okay since we built in enough time for this project). I've been down with walking pneumonia for weeks now and am just now starting to find my footing.  It hit not just me, but my entire house...

We've built in buffers to account for unexpected setbacks like this, so we're confident we'll get back on track soon.  I expect that when the new year kicks off, we'll have more to update you with.

Still, things are on track for delivery next year! Thanks for your patience and understanding. This is a project that takes months to go from concept to fulfillment. We're grateful to have you as part of our community!

Other Projects you might like!

Speaking of January, I will be a part of Pintopia with my dragon enamel pins. If you love dragons and enamel pins, consider following the campaign for updates!

A Dragon's Queen - The Kickstarter Campaign is still in late pledges!


Additionally, we are closing in on 175 followers for the epic dragon fantasy romantasy, A Dragon's Queen, on Kickstarter. There is still time to back this if you've been on the fence. Late Pledges are expected to close at the end of the month so we can get final numbers and all to the printer. Here is the link.

In a world where rebellion is a death sentence, one captive's fate will ignite the flames of freedom. Preorder Captive!


Lastly, if you missed the preorder for Captive, the kick-ass dystopian fantasy, you can preorder it through my Shopify store, which I've launched.

Thanks again for being a part of the journey. Tonight, we're celebrating Krampusnacht at the Glasneck house with some German cooking and the kids will put out their shoes to be filled with sweets from St. Nicholas. Are you celebrating?

Yours in scribbled tales,
Tina Glasneck

Project Update: 🥳 The books are here & they're about to start shipping!

Heya Heroes!

Look what came in the mail!

The Gamer special edition paperbacks, shrink-wrapped in their boxes from the printer!
The special edition Gamer paperbacks are here, and they're shiny! So, SO shiny.

The special edition paperbacks came out even better than I expected; apparently my printer thought so too, because they made an extra copy just to add to their collection!




Remember how we unlocked the illustrated chapter headers? Well, they're a hidden message, which if you can decode it gives a little sneak peek into the sequel and I Am Maggie (check the link at the end of the update for more info).

The Gamer special edition paperback with all the Gamer swag, including: bookmark, book bag and the Gamer Oracle Cards.

The books were the last bit of kit to come in, which means... it's time to starting packing!

If you pledged for a physical book, you should have received a "last chance to update your shipping address" notice. If you need to do so, please do it now, because I will start shipping books in the next few days.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that most of you will be your books by Christmas, or at the very least early in the New Year. 

Also, everyone should keep an eye out for the last of the digital rewards, the campaign badge.

And that's a wrap!

Thanks for supporting Gamer; I hope you enjoy reading it 😊

Have you had a chance to read the ebook yet? If you have, let me know in the poll below, you check out the Gamer Choose Your Own Adventure short story.

More special editions!

I have TWO new special editions coming out early next year; if you were an Early Bird or Returning backer, you might have already read them as part of your respective perks. The first, Short Bits Volume 5, launches early January (just a few weeks away! Eeek!).

You can check it and the other special edition, I Am Maggie, out below.

Short Bits Volume 5 Special Edition.
This is a special edition limited to just 100 copies, and features the first several chapters of my the first book in my upcoming xianxia/Norse-inspired epic fantasy series, Woman in White.

I Am Maggie Volume 1. Death is just the beginning.
Gamer was a sneaky origin story for two of the main characters in I Am Maggie, but I'm not telling you which ones, 'cause that'd be cheating. The special edition collects the first 4 Maggie stories with a new one exclusive to the collection.
