THIS IS IT EVERYONE!

The last 7 DAYS OF MY CAMPAIGN!

No more extensions left, it’s all or nothing!

I would love to make Quill within the next seven days and I NEED your help! If you haven’t pre-ordered yet, please do so before time runs out! If you have already pre-ordered (THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU), spread the word to everyone you know and maybe consider picking up another copy (if you can). 

I have to tell you guys, throughout the revision process this book has blossomed far beyond my expectations into something I can really be proud to have my name on. Beyond the action, adventure and intrigue there are some themes about family, loss, friendship and defying expectations placed upon you because of your race, gender or background. I’ve seen my villain evolve beyond a two-dimensional, hand-wringing bad guy and my heroes struggle to find common ground with each other while they try and save humanity’s new home among the stars. 

I’ve also learned a hell of a lot about being not just a competent writer, but also an adventurous storyteller and the support from my Inkshares comrades has been a constant inspiration. 

PLEASE help me cross the finish line before the week is up! I promise you a book worth investing your time and money in and the eternal gratitude of this little, hopeful author. If anything, this entire experience has only further validated that this is what I was meant to do...tell stories. Regardless of the outcome, I will keep pressing forward and keep chasing the next story and the next and learn from every success and near-success (I prefer that term over "failure" don’t you?)

THANK YOU everyone, truly from the bottom of my heart!

Jason

    The "Holy Grail" was simply a legend, but when it fell into the wrong hands--the world ended. Nothing grew from the earth, people died, and the land shattered. Mankind is now on their knees--striving to survive in the dying world and from themselves.
    Kelsey Rae Barthel liked an update for The Amaranth Chronicles: Deviant Rising

    Wanna see something really REALLY cool? Was going through an old file-cabinet over the weekend and found a bunch of materials from the early days of The Amaranth Chronicles. 


    We originally started mapping out the story using flashcards and pinned them up to a wall in my college bedroom. This was all back in 2008. Take a look at those first 3 cards. Its really amazing to reflect on my life and all that’s happened since then but I am amazed at what didn’t change in all these years.

    Check out the early sketches of the Stormchaser at the bottom. I did those nearly 11 years ago... Puts a tear in my eye...
