Oh my God, guys. We passed 200 orders. We’re currently at 201, a mere 49 preorders from the Quill goal. As promised, a new chapter is up. And now it’s time for one last push; I think we can get to the goal in the next couple weeks if we try, especially if everyone who’s following but hasn’t preordered yet orders their copy. Thank you all SO, SO much.
Hello wonderful people,
The campaign has been marching along at a good pace but now I need your help with something. My new friend Brian Fitspatrick, author of Mechcraft, has posted a thread on the Johnslist for to drum up support for Beyond the Code.
Please use this thread to give me any feedback, opinions, ideas, or support to make Beyond the Code a success. I look forward to hearing from you and I hope we can work together to make this book a reality. Here’s the link.

Also we are only 1 order away from the next 50 Point Raffle!! Let’s push it over the edge...in a good way.

Good morning Hexers!
Ooh so intriguing!Morning supporters and readers!
with 94 pre-orders we are closing in on a milestone 100 soon. I shall upload another teaser chapter in the coming days - stay tuned!
As per some requests - i will make available a PDF version of the already uploaded chapters , as people have asked to read them on kindle/Ipad and not through Inkshares. This will be available on http://www.jondbooks.com later today.
Finally - a HUGE THANKS to anyone who ordered and supports the project. It means the world to me.
Would be also great if when you have a second, you each email ONE person you think may be interested, in order to keep the momentum rolling.
thanks

I want to thank everyone for your support. We came in on 8th. I will keep writing the story and trust me, the story will be published one way or another :)

About two hours remain in the Nerdist contest. This is it, guys. Though I’d be ecstatic to jump into third in that time, the realist in me is already onto our next steps (but go ahead and spam your friends in the name of space dragons).
Tonight I’ll send a full newsletter with any news and what we can do to make sure The Traveller’s Cup succeeds.
You guys have been the best space crew a captain could ask for, and one way or another this book is going to end up in your hands.
Your Overbearing Overlord,
-Captain AC
In every form of madness, it was well believed in the divided mind of Thomas Rivenport, there were always two opposing, yet equally matched sides. Be it within the struggles between flesh and spirit, decay and sustenance or dark and light, once all the pawns were disposed of, all of the knights’ horses cut out from beneath them and all of the castle walls were fallen, two kings would stand across a vacant board littered with the ruin of their armies.
Dark and light then faced off.
The dark’s greatest armament, he conjectured further, was the simple impression that gray was the truth. Donning this façade, it would even deny its own existence, claiming that the idea of opposites was a myth conjured up by proponents of the light, for nothing would exist if their assumptions were true. For if equal opposites existed, they would surely cancel each other out.
Therefore, the two enemies, each dependent upon the perpetuity of the other, were locked in the gray and thus demonstrating the tragedy of existence, like Narcissus gazing into a dried-up lake, his only reflection being his shadow cast upon the sand. The masks of comedy and tragedy, hanging from a cord on the branch of a nearby tree, sway in the breeze.
My wonderful readers and followers...the day is upon us! The final day of the contest!
And, here’s the funny part...despite being a writer, I’ve read this entire time that the contest ends at midnight, whereas the fine print states that it ends at 12pm PST, or...3pm this afternoon for those of us on the east coast...which means...
LESS THAN FOUR HOURS LEFT IN THIS CONTEST!!!
This contest has been a marathon of love and labor...blood, sweat, and tears...
Thank you all for your support and love and, well, EVERYTHING throughout this contest. I still can’t believe that’s the finish line I see on the horizon.
I wish everyone in the contest the very best, no matter the outcome. This cup runneth over with outstanding talent. Let us all support each other. We can all get published.
With such little time left in this contest, I’m certain that everyone’s efforts to place will be ramped up appropriately...as should mine. It’s only appropriate, as I love my book and want the absolute best for it.
Nothing is guaranteed until 3pm EST. Until then, if you haven’t ordered a copy of Mr. Butler, please consider doing so now. If you have, please take these next couple of hours to get just one other person interested enough to pre-order.
Thank you all for your unwavering support. I really can’t believe it’s all coming to a close today.
Take care, everybody.
Have a wonderful day.
-Michael
