Robert Batten liked an update for Tantalus Depths

Well, unfortunately despite the boost from syndicate backing, we have not been able to reach our goal of 250 pre-orders by June 5th. We’ve come up 22 orders short of that lofty goal, so the free short story promotion won’t be offered at this time. I’ve decided to set that as a goal for the 300 order mark: Once we hit 300 orders (however long that takes) I’ll make my short story The Perspective Machine free for all for 5 days.

We’ve made a lot of good progress this weekend, and I do fully expect Tantalus Depths to reach the Quill goal some time this week. Don’t forget to show support in any way you’re able, either by bringing friends or family in to buy pre-orders or simply to spread the word on all social media platforms. Remember: this whole project can only succeed with your help.
