Thank you to all of my wonderful supporters, you're my Heroes 🥰. 

If you missed out on the campaign and want a copy of the Special Edition, there's still time. You can grab Gamer and a heap of other goodies on the Gamer Preorder Store right here. (Psst... there's a little something special for my Heroes in the Backers Only section at the bottom this update.)

I have to admit, that after the campaign ended yesterday, I took a nap on the couch, with the puppy in celebration. Now though, I'm back at it doing the very, very important job of getting your books to you!

1. We are here —> The Gamer Special Edition campaign is done, we did it! Yay!!!

2. BackerKit collects funds: Over the next 14 days, BackerKit will collect your pledge. If there are any issues with your payment method, BackerKit will reach out and let you know.

3. Surveys are sent out: Once all the pledges are collected, I’ll send out the surveys. This is where you’ll have the chance to provide the name you want listed in the Acknowledgments, if you want it listed at all. You’ll also be able to tell me where to send your rewards and purchase additional add-ons, if you missed them during the campaign. 

Surveys will come via BackerKit, and I’ll send you an update when that happens.

4. Surveys are locked: Right up until this point, you’ll be able to make adjustments (aka, purchase more goodies!) to the info in your survey. After this point, the surveys will be locked and no more changes won’t be possible (except for your shipping address, that will remain open until the books start shipping), so I know how much of what to order. But don’t worry, you’ll get 24 hours notice before this happens, to make any last-minute changes.

5. Acknowledgments added to the Special Edition: Once the surveys are locked, the Acknowledgments will be updated with your preferred name.

6. Digital rewards are delivered: Ebooks and all of the other digital goodies go out to backers. Like the surveys, they’ll be delivered via BackerKit and I’ll send you an update when it happens. 

If you're a digital backer, that's where it all ends, but if you're waiting on a book…

7. The presses roll: The books are sent to the printer and swag is ordered!

8. Packing, packing, packing! Once all of the books and other goodies have arrived, I’m going to be signing and packing my little heart out! Books will be numbered, signed and wrapped, and swag bags will be stuffed.

9. Last chance to update your shipping address: Just before I start shipping books, you’ll have one last chance to update your shipping address, and then…

10. I head to the post office. I’m going to take my trunk-load of parcels down to the local post office and inundate Sam (the postwoman) with lots of glorious parcels! Once the parcels are sent, I'll send you a tracking number, where applicable.

And that’s it! 

If you have any questions, let me know.

Second-chance preorder stores are up for a couple of the Booktopia projects, including these awesome sci-fi books I backed!
