Greetings you magnificent human beings,
Today is the last day of the campaign so I thought I’d take a minute to thank you all for carrying Beyond the Code to Quill. I’ll do my best in forging through the mostly unknown (to me) world of publishing to bring you the best book Beyond the Code can be.
The selling campaign of Beyond the Code was started kind of by accident before I was really prepared but I always strived to do the best I could. Thank you for your patience and support as I stumbled like a drunken four year old through the world of crowd funding. Your kindness and pulling together to help me with my dream has touched my heart in a way you couldn’t imagine.
We are at 257 orders so I’ll let you what. If we make it to 260 orders by the end of this campaign I will post the next chapter and I’ll do another prize draw to end things off right.
Thank you all again for bringing me this far. I’ll keep you posted on what comes next. Brave new world.
International Transport tried getting one last word in to stop the publication of this book, will you let them succeed? I’m doing my part: The top three book referrers this weekend will get the kickass teleporting coffee mug! Winners will be announced Tuesday. Let’s do this!
Here goes. The biggest, baddest prize of ’em all. Inspired by The Mysterious Package Company - if you really feel like you want a memento from The Punch Escrow crowdfunding process, then this is the ultimate MAJOR PRIZE. Winning it will require both skill and luck. Are you up for the challenge? If so, click below:

Hello fellow readers and authors!
This is just a quick update, I didn’t really have anything planned for today, but wowzers!
I want to thank you so very much. From the orders, to the recommendations, to the reviews, the e-mails and direct messages. The past week has been amazing. You have all been so great, and I just wanted to thank you for that, and for your continued support!
Things are going well, I was editing yesterday, and I really can’t wait for you to have a chance to read it in physical or digital form! We’ll get there!
I’ve been toying with the idea of uploading a portion of Chapter 5... maybe soon.
Enjoy your Thursday,
James
I would ask you to please keep sharing and recommending, but you already are!
Hello, superspies!
Hey everyone,
I don’t really have much to say, but this did happen...
1900 BOOKS SOLD!!!
Bela is pleased.
Thank you everyone for all your support.
Also, Michael Hasse, soon-to-be published author of The Madness of Mr. Butler, interviewed me for Renderosity Magazine. So if your a fan of long lists and overuse of the verb "decided" head over there and check it out.
Also for those of you who write (which I know is a good portion) WildClaw Theatre, Chicago’s premiere destination for horror on the stage, is now accepting submissions for their annual radio play festival, Deathscribe.

Five selected scripts will be performed at the beginning of December with live foley and professional actors, competing for the coveted Bloody Axe Award. Can you scare up a story? Submit and find out. (Or don’t. I have enough competition as it is.)
That’s all for now. Onward to 2000!
