Good day to you all.  Just a quick one today.

First, our GET YOUR NAME IN THE BOOK contest is going strong.  It ends tonight at 3am EST (midnight Pacific.)  If you want to have a character in BLUE WATER named after you, get those preorders in.  If you’ve already ordered, refer someone else, and your name is in the running.  But the clock is ticking.  Get ’em in.

Secondly, BLUE WATER has been in the running for funding for less than two weeks, but this is the second time we’ve tried for publishing.  Our first round was during the Nerdist’s first contest.  The campaign was rushed previously, and we fell short mainly because I had no plan.  This time is different.  

But something is still here from before.  Something rushed that took no planning.  Our COVER.  The jacket for BLUE WATER was pulled from a teaser for the webseries, and hastily photoshopped together, so that we didn’t have to use the generic Inkshares cover.  It served it’s purpose at being a replacement, but honestly, hasn’t done much for us in terms of grabbing attention.  And since Inkshares works by grabbing attention, it’s time to retire it.

So with that in mind, in the not too distant future, next Sunday A.D. (to borrow a phrase from another successful crowdfunding campaign in hopes that some of their good fortune rubs off on us) we’re debuting the NEW BLUE WATER COVER.  I promise you, it will turn some heads, which will in turn snag some clicks.

So tune in next week, and see it here folks.  In the mean time, get those preorders and referrals in to BE A CHARACTER IN BLUE WATER!

Thanks a bunch,

Joseph
