Hello my Knightmares!

As I sit here today, we are currently 28 orders away from Quill publishing with 43 days left to go in my funding campaign.

Thank you to everyone who has helped to get me where I am. You guys have been awesome. I have seen people go out of their way to help, and I couldn’t be more thankful.

Last weekend I went to Monster Mania, which is a small three-day horror convention located in the New Jersey suburbs of Philadelphia. I walked around and talked to some horror fans, and got some great feedback while I handed out promotional postcards to everyone who was willing to take one. I left feeling good about the work I have done, and encouraged by the people who seemed to feel a thrill as I explained to them what the book was about. Unfortunately, the 500+ postcards I handed out has turned into ZERO orders. I understand the immediacy of the consumer brain, and plan on returning in the future with physical books to sell, which I feel will do much better than the idea of investing in something that doesn’t yet exist, or won’t be in their hands for another six months or more.

With that said, I still need each and every willing person who wants to see a silly horror about a group of friends, go far. This story is for everyone who has ever watched The Goonies, Monster Squad, and even Stranger Things or Buffy the Vampire Slayer and said, "Hey, what would I do if my friends and I were stuck in a situation like that?"

This book is for everyone who loves Ghostbusters, John Dies at the End, and Sleepy Hollow.

I would suggest that everyone on the fence should go and read my guest blog post here on Inkshares’ own Jamison Stone’s blog. Meet the characters and get an idea for the story.

Or check out www.TheKnightmares.com for more information!

Also, check out THE KNIGHTMARES new landing page for more information on the swag I am offering to those who buy and help this story make it.

Now is the time to get that extra copy for a friend! Push those few remaining family members that said they’d buy a copy to actually whip out the credit card and take the plunge. For all of those who have been watchers of my work, now is the time to jump in and commit.
