Project Update: 💪 The final hurdle... the ebooks are sooo close!
Heya Heroes,
Today is a very exciting day… it is the day I start the final proof of Gamer.
This is always the last stage in my process; after all the writing and reading and rewriting and rereading and editing and reediting, comes the layout for print and last but not least… the proofing. To be honest, it's not my favourite part but I never skip it because I always find some kinda whoopsie, like the time an entire chapter was repeated in Hero or that other time I'd forgotten a chapter in one of the Echo books.
Once the proof is done and I've corrected the mistakes that will inevitably pop up, Gamer goes to print and the ebooks will be winging their way to your inbox.
So, between now and then, wish me luck.
Survey reminder: You need to fill out your survey to get your books!
If you haven't filled out your survey yet, please do so as soon as possible because I need to know where to send your books! If you're having trouble please reach out and remember that you can find your survey link here or by using the link below
Happy reading,
Belinda
Another awesome campaign to check out!

Project Update: 👌 We are locked and loaded!
Heya Heroes,
You probably received a notice the other day that your surveys were being locked, which (among other things) means… the (e)books are coming! Yay!!
I will have (almost) all of the digital rewards out to you by the end of this week, the only one that will take a little more time is the digital Campaign Badge, which I personalise for each of you.
Orders locked also means that I can start ordering swag (such as the Oracle cards) and other goodies, and put the finishing touches on Gamer. In this case, "finishing touches" means finalising the Acknowledgements.

If you haven't filled out your survey yet and you want your name included in the Acknowledgments, you have 24 hours (until Tuesday 8am AEDT) until lights out, after that I won't be able to include you. Even if you don't want to be in the Acknowledgments, I still need to know where to send your book, so if you want your ebook sooner rather than later, you know what to do.
About the paperbacks
The Special Edition paperbacks will take a little longer, but I'm hoping (fingers and toes crossed!!) to have them printed before Christmas and winging their way to you in the New Year. No guarantees, but I'll keep you updated either way.
Happy reading

Project Update: 😳 Last chance to finalise your name for the Acknowledgements!
Heya Heroes,
So... I've got a bit of a surprise for you. I have a sample of the holographic special edition Gamer cover! Take a look at this beauty!
Shiny!
I was going to go with a foil cover but that was before I knew my fabulous printer (Kaligraphic, check them out on Instagram) could make it holographic.
There's still some time to grab one of these shiny, shiny paperbacks if you haven't secured your copy already. You can either add it on to your pledge via your survey, or get it here.
Ebooks rolling out end of October!
Look for your Gamer ebook and (most) of your other digital rewards, at the end of the month! Just in time to put your feet up and recover from the spooky season 👻.
Of course, that also means it's...
Your last chance to finalise your name in the Gamer Acknowledgments
I'd like to thank everyone who's filled in their surveys already, it's a big help. If you haven't had a chance to complete yours, you have until 25 October @ 11:59pm to finalise your name before it goes in the Gamer acknowledgements.
If you've lost your survey link, click here or use the link below to recover your survey.
Happy reading

Project Update: 💨 Surveys are starting to roll out!
Heya Heroes,
How have the last two weeks been treating you?
I've been busy putting the finishing touches on Gamer and coordinating with my printer, who had some very exciting news for me. More on that in the next update through because right now…
- Survey's are rolling out
- Digital rewards will be heading your way end of October
- I have a special coupon code for you!
Survey's are rolling out!
We're starting things off with a little test, just to make sure things are working as they should.
Soon, several lucky guinea pigs— Err, I mean lovely helpful backers, will receive an email with a special link to their BackerKit surveys.
If that's you, huzzah! You're a lab— *ah-hem* extra helpful person!
If you haven't received a survey yet, don't worry, I'll be sending the rest of them within the next day or two, and I'll send another update when that happens.
It’s important to respond to your survey as quickly as possible, so that I can put the finishing touches to the Gamer acknowledgements and get the book to print and the ebooks into your hands as soon as possible.
When you get the email with the survey, click the survey link to respond. Answer the questions about your reward preferences, provide shipping information (if required), and purchase add-on items if you like. If don’t have access to this survey link yet, but it will be available soon via email!
After you respond to your survey, you can go back later and change your responses at any time until I close the surveys. I'll be doing this at the end of October, so I can get the final item counts and order books!
If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page at https://gamer.backerkit.com.
Digital rewards heading out at the end of October!
While the Special Edition paperbacks will take a little time to print and ship, I'm aiming to have all of your ebooks and other digital rewards to you by the end of October, or early November at the latest.
Once again, they'll be coming via BackerKit and I will send everyone an update once that happens.
Gamer triva reward + special coupon code
Ok, so... confession time.
Initially, only the people who answered at least 80% of the Gamer trivia questions were going to get an extra reward but... I stuffed up and don't have that data so... everyone is getting a little something extra 😊 And that something extra is... $6 credit* to use toward add-ons in the survey, which will get you a free ebook, among other things.
Click the link to activate your credit or use the code "GAMER TRIVIA COUPON CODE" (without the quotes) in the coupon section at checkout.
*Just a little note, the $6 credit only applies to add-ons and can't be used toward shipping costs.
Happy reading
