I’m glad I caught you guys between the rehydrating period and round two of the weekend. This is the last day to preorder guys! We have made too much progress and received too much love to let this book fade away! Take five minutes and bribe a friend for me or buy one last $5 book with your redeem credit email and use it as a doorstop. Everyone needs a good doorstop...
We got this!

Friends, Family, Authors and Readers alike,
We have sold more than 100 copies in the last week alone. We have just TWO DAYS left to make this final push to 750 and it is going to to take YOUR help.
I wanted to remind everyone that when you signed on to Inkshares and preordered the book, you got an email titled "You’ve got Credits!"
This email is still in your inbox and if you open it and click the green button titled Claim, you will be able to preorder one more copy of the book for only $5!!
You can give this copy to a friend, family member, neighbor, stranger, loved one or even your boss (I hear promotions are often given after book gifts).
If you guys did this, it would put us over the edge and ensure that this book receives the proper publishing, editing and marketing it needs to succeed!!!
This is our last chance, as I am sure very few of you will be on your computers during this beautiful weekend. What better way to end your week than spending a mere $5 to boost your karma on a friend’s dream ;)
Spread the word and thank you for all the kindness and support through this campaign!
With nothing but love,
KJ
With hundreds of Facebook Shares, numerous recommendations from my fellow Authors and friends on Inkshares (I will be more supportive to you guys soon, just stuck in go-mode right now), and who knows how many word of mouth recommendations...WE HAVE REACHED 400 PREORDERS!
This is a huge testament to the power of YOU, the followers of this book. We could have thrown in the towel with a week left and said "There is no way we can get 450 preorders in one week". That would have been the easy thing to do.
This book isn’t about taking the easy route. It is easy to NOT sell everything you own on Craigslist and travel the world. It is easy to NOT to leave your "Netflix after work until bed" lifestyle. It is easy to NOT tell your comfort zone to kiss your A**. It is awfully easy NOT to jump.
That isn’t who we are though.
I KNOW we can get to 750 if we build on this momentum! Please do not be afraid to ask people if they would consider preordering this book for $10. That is only ONE less drink this weekend in NYC, ONE less trip to Bojangles in the South (Huge sacrifice... but it is worth it I promise), ONE less herbal remedy in Denver, and ONE less coffee in San Francisco.
Let’s pull the biggest upset in Inkshares history and sell 350 books in these last five days. All it takes is YOU convincing a few people to preorder and it will happen.
Readyyyyyyyyyyy BREAK

The wheels are in motion...we are picking up momentum and I know you guys...you guys like to reach goals as much as I do. I want to tell y’all how appreciative I am of the overwhelming support. From old middle school friends, to neighbors, to past coworkers, to the mothers and fathers of old friends...the book is receiving support from all over the country! Let’s finish strong and get the word out to as many people as possible and give ourselves a real chance at reaching 750! At this point it is actually factual to say that if each person got just ONE other person to buy the book OR each person bought just ONE more book for a friend (two and you get your name in the book)... we would reach 750. I know we can do this and I am going to do my best to get you guys the BEST POSSIBLE VERSION OF THIS BOOK I CAN, but I will need your help!!

Not Afraid of the Fall readers,
We are nearing the finish line, so let’s start sprinting. We were obviously just setting this campaign up for an epic finish! It is going to take each and everyone of you reaching out to 1-5 people and asking them to preorder a book for this to happen! Do me a huge favor and send the email below to anyone that might be interested! We’ve got this guys it just a numbers game!
Dear (name),
I hope you are doing well! I don’t normally do this but I have a favor to ask you...My good friend Kyle James quit his job and backpacked in Europe and Asia for five months! He wrote a book called Not Afraid of the Fall about his journey and is trying to get it published! In order for the book to get full editing, developing, marketing and publishing...he needs 750 preorders. The book is currently about half way there and every book counts! If you are interested in helping his cause by preordering a book for $10 go to this URL:

There are preorder instructions on the right side of the page under the green Preorder button!
Thanks for helping out and have an awesome day!
Dear friend,
