SO MUCH NEWS, SPACE CREW. 

First, About That Little Green Bar! 
Thanks to the amazing crew at Inkshares, and some fellow authors who were more than helpful explaining things to me that I initially derped over, this campaign has been extended to September 5!

 

I now have all summer to stress and fidget over this, but also to come up with some new marketing strategies. If you’re good at that sort of thing, please get in touch. I’m relying on my Crew to get this book fully-funded. 

Second, About Orders Placed TODAY
Given the devastating fire happening right now in Fort MacMurray, Alberta, I’m matching orders today with donations to the Canadian Red Cross. If you were thinking about picking up extra copies, you can support two causes in one go by ordering before midnight EST tonight. 



Third—Free Comic Book Day is Coming!
And the comic is nearly complete. Here’s the first page in full colour. I’ll be sending out the link to you guys between Friday night and Saturday to view the whole thing. 
 

Fourth, This Month is Mental Health Awareness Month. 
While I think we should talk about it all the time, it’s great that we spend this month in recognition, and get to hear voices we wouldn’t normally hear talking about their experiences.

I plan to share some of my mental health story on my blog in the near future, but I’d also like to hear from you. If you’d like a chance to share your story, please let me know, and I’ll reserve a section in a future newsletter for you, because we’re a Crew that supports one another. 

With that said, I’d like to wish you all a happy Star Wars day!

Your Significantly De-Stressed Space Captain from Space Canada,
-AC

    Hi, Lucky Readers,

    Wow you guys! What an amazing spike in support in the past couple of days. We are even the tiniest smidgen ahead of the "ideal" pre-order rate suggested by Inkshares.

    I have written an entire novel but I feel at a loss to properly express my gratitude to all of you who have purchased a copy of this novel and are helping make it such a success. Most sincerely, thank you all.

    If you’re on the fence about ordering a copy for yourself, check out some of the reviews on the project page. So many smart people can’t be wrong, right? 

    (pictured: being on the fence)

    Keep up the sharing and keep up the support! As added incentive, when we get to 325 copies sold, I will update the excerpts and share some of the new material I am working on for the middle of the novel (hint hint).

    Happy reading!

    - Webster

      Just a quick email, as things are busy around these parts...

      Got any credits lying around? Consider putting them into "An Adventure With Dada!" 

      It’s a foul-mouthed, darkly comedic adventure, and if all of you just so happen to have $10 worth of credits lying around, gathering dust, then you could get DADA FOR FREE. Plus, it would fund, which would be amazing. 

      What are you waiting for? Dust off those credits and get a FREE BOOK here:

        Matthew Isaac Sobin liked an update for Pilot X

        500 preorders! We’re 2/3 of the way there!

        THANK YOU!

        Getting this book fully for-real published with in-store promotions and everything would be a killer dream come true for me. And I thank each and every one of you for having faith in this book!

        I hope you’re enjoying the sample chapters. If you haven’t checked them out please do. They’re non-spoilery to the main events of the book but give you key insights to the story.

        I can’t wait for all of you to read the whole thing too. Pilot X was created by me in the 1990s for a parody news article on subbrilliant.com. He has grown quite a bit since then when he was a crashed pilot of a mystery aircraft in Colorado. He is no longer a crashed pilot of a mystery aircraft in Colorado.

        He is so much more. And he’s soon to be real character in a real published novel thanks to you.

        SO WHAT NOW?

        We need 250 more preorders over the next 45 days to make this happen.

        That means, if I have done my math correctly, that each of you needs to convince just half a person to preorder Pilot X. Are you willing to do that?

        Come on, its just half a person? They won’t even see you coming! If you approach fro the half without eyes.

        Anyway PLEASE spread the word and PLEASE know you’ve made my day every time I get that email saying you pre-ordered.

        You’re the best.

        Cheers,

        Tom
