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 w...

Woot! Stretch Goal Unlocked
Hi, Amazing Backer!
FINAL 3 DAYS! OMG!
WE DID IT!
We're thrilled to announce that we've UNLOCKED OUR STRETCH GOAL!
As a result, ALL EDITIONS of the Curse of the Fallen Fairy...
We're so happy to have you here and want to pop in with a short update.
It's Tina here to give you an update.
The holiday season is over, but the holiday decorations are still up in the Glasneck household. We love the Christmas lights and I will keep them up until we start forgetting to turn them off. The longest they've ever remained was until April. LOL. I'm sure I'm not the only one.
LOL.
Now, on to updates from the writing desks.
Things continue to remain on track as we work in the background on our story and world for Curse of the Fallen Fairy. Here's a sketch of one of the cards. Isn't it cute?
Lovely sketch for Curse of the Fallen Fairy
ACTIVE PREORDERS (for TINA GLASNECK)
1. A DRAGON'S QUEEN: A DRAGON ROMANTASY SPECIAL EDITION
Did you miss A Dragon's Queen on Kickstarter?
Reality sucks. Fall into this romantasy instead. Destiny. Duty. Defiance...and DRAGONS. Empires will fall, legacies will rise, but some bonds transcend it all in this steamy romantasy. Reserve your copy from this limited print run! Once the books are gone, they're gone.
Please note: The Kickstarter for A Dragon's Queen ended and is now up for preorder on the bookshop. This is a preorder and is scheduled for a September delivery (those who backed it through Kickstarter will receive it earlier). Here's the link to check it out.
A Dragon's Queen with beautiful edges, black velvet, special edition hardback
But wait there is more happening that you don't want to miss...
Do you love dystopian fantasy like "The Hunger Games," "Divergent" or "Fallout?" Can't get enough of high stakes or life-or-death scenarios?
In a world where rebellion is a death sentence, one captive's fate will ignite the flames of freedom.
Kristen Sumner, a daring rebel, is thrust into the depths of Grave Warden, a merciless supernatural prison, where the ruthless Dark Elves wield absolute control.
Forced to participate in a deadly game of survival, Kristen must confront her darkest fears and unleash her latent powers to outmaneuver the treacherous forces manipulating her destiny.
With the fate of the rebellion hanging in the balance, Kristen's defiance will either spark a revolution or succumb to the crushing darkness.
When the apocalypse comes, do you know which side you will be on? A villain or a rebel?
Welcome to the supernatural prison. The only way to freedom is to win the gladiatorial games.
We are rebels with a cause. The only way to survive is to fight back!
Please note: This is a preorder with an August 2025 delivery date. Learn more about Captive, here. These special editions will only be printed with this special, limited edition print run.
Coming Soon to Backerkit: Pintopia
Elemental Dragon Enamel Pins
Lastly, I'm happy to share that I'll be participating in Pintopia for my enamel dragon pins.
Dragon Pins created for Pintopia!
Not only will you have a chance to get these amazing pins, but we're also offering an early bird for backers who support us during the first 24 hours.
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?
I'm dropping in to let you know that Angela and I are working in the background and keeping everything on track for our October 2025 delivery.
Now, that we're in November, I just wanted to drop you a line to let you know how much we appreciate having you on this journey. For November, I always try to practice gratitude, since we are in the season of Thanksgiving. It helps my mental health and creativity. With all of the projects, this ensures that I can show up and create!
Should you have missed out on anything while the project was live, I'm happy to share that we have a preorder page live for the project, so you can STILL grab your copy!
Other Projects
I have two projects that I'm working on, one for dragon-themed enamel pins for Pintopia in January and a dragon romantasy currently in late pledges on Kickstarter, A Dragon's Queen.
Thank you for being on this journey with us. We're grateful for you and appreciate your being here.
We're thrilled about the progress we've made over the past couple of weeks! Behind the scenes, we're working tirelessly to bring Curse of the Fallen Fairy to life.
Important Reminder:
If your payment has failed or errored, please correct it by Thursday, October 10th. After this date, Backerkit will remove you as a backer, and you'll miss out on:
- Exclusive special edition project goodies - Booktopia cross-colab extras - Special Booktopia gift from backing 5 projects or more (if applicable)
We want you to stay part of this journey! Your support means the world to us.
To avoid any issues:
1. Check your payment status on Backerkit 2. Update your payment information if necessary 3. Contact Backerkit support if you need assistance
Thank you for being an integral part of this project! We're excited to continue this journey with you.
YOU DID IT! Because of your support, enthusiasm, and cheer, we've been able to smash through our goal to create a fabulous book for you. Thank you so much.
Over the course of the campaign, not only did we meet our funding goal, but you allowed us to be able to upgrade it too. Yes, this means there will be that Zoom paint party and the book will also include a FULL-COLOR INTERIOR ART SPREAD!
If this is your first time using Backerkit, know that the fun is just getting started. Over the course of the next few days, we'll be working on the backend to get surveys out to you (and if possible will also include new post-campaign stretch goals to keep the fun going).
Since this campaign will fulfill in 2025, you will not be charged for shipping until we are close to the ship date. You will only be charged for the items you pledged and any add-ons. If you have any questions, please let me know. Because this is a product in development, we do not have the final weights needed for calculating shipping (and the books are still needing to be printed for this to happen-- so yes, a lot happening in the background).
We will keep you abreast as we move forward...but tonight we simply celebrate our WIN!
