Seriously. SO many stakes!
And check out this gorgeous cover!
Welcome to this brand-new, Backerkit-Exclusive Deluxe Hardcover Edition available for a very limited time for the ten-year publication anniversary of my first book ever. And to commemorate the event, I'm also including, for the first time ever, the original, never-before-published ending of Legally Undead!
In this campaign, we are aiming to create the most amazing hardcover version possible! We have already surpassed the first stretch goal; everyone who backs at the hardcover level will receive ornate metal book corner protectors.
And we have more stretch goal rewards coming! Below, you can see the hardcover upgrades at each level. We'll also have paperback and ebook rewards at each level, too. Every pledge helps, and we want to make sure you know that!
Stretch Goal Rewards for Paperback and Ebook Backers:
$3000: Every supporter’s name listed in the frontmatter of the book.
$3500: Vampire-themed bookplate. Paperback backers will receive a physical copy; all backers will receive a digital version.
$4000: Everyone will receive an ebook version of Beyond the Count—an edited collection of early vampire stories.
$5000: A Legally Undead postcard— Paperback backers will receive a physical copy; ebook backers will receive a digital version. Plus, every supporter will receive a signed postcard from the author (physical or digital).
A reluctant vampire hunter stalking New York City as only a scorned bride can.
Elle Dupree has her life all figured out: first a wedding, then her PhD, then swank faculty parties where she'll serve wine and cheese and introduce people to her husband the lawyer.
As an added bonus, all backers will receive TWO free Oracle cards (with the interpretations!). Digital backers will receive these cards as printables, while physical backers will receive actual cards.
Okay. So the vampires in Legally Undead aren't exactly the sort to go around having tea with people.
Wellll....maybe Deirdre is.
She'd chain you to a wall, serve tea in an ornate set, sit and have a long chat about the state of the world and the Vampirarchy...and then she'd rip your throat out.
But it would be fun while it lasted, no?
And Elle? She ends up relying on chopsticks instead of an actual stake. She's not precisely the sort of chick you'd expect to have matching cups and saucers on hand.
But I love tea. If you showed up while I was writing, I'd definitely take a break and we'd have a cuppa. So that's why I decided to include a vampire-themed tea in this campaign.
So about the tea...
I am including a Vampire Tea Party tier with a blend I created way back when I first wrote the first draft of Legally Undead. I was living in the Bronx in New York and discovered a tiny store with tons of loose tea. So I picked up some and started experimenting.
In the end, I found I adored green tea with rose petals.
Shipping fees will be collected after the campaign's conclusion, in the pledge manager. Shipping price is based on weight and location.
VAT/International Taxes: Please also be aware that you will be responsible for VAT import tax for your country, if required. As such, if your country imposes VAT/international taxes on books and the like, then you will need to pay your courier to receive your package. I do not charge VAT/international taxes, but your country might. If they do, you will need to pay your courier to receive your package.
Additionally, if a package is returned because of VAT/international taxes not being paid, a second attempt will be made to send it to you, however, you will be required to repay shipping. Due to the nature of this project, I cannot offer refunds.
