Hey, everyone!
Jason here with your weekly To Live and Die in Avalon update!
Editing is progressing quite well on the first draft which is slowly morphing into a more polished second draft. Initial feedback from my beta readers has been very positive and I’ve already cleaned up a lot of stuff myself.
We’re at the 30-day mark and as I see the book taking shape toward a completed form I’m getting more and more excited to get it into your hands. The complete novel has eighteen chapters with only four of those (pre-revision) chapters up on the campaign page. There’s a lot more story out there and some really great stuff I can’t wait for you to read, but the book has to go into production before that can happen! If you feel that this is a book worth being published then please pre-order!
Those of you who have already pre-ordered have already shown your faith in the finished product and I can’t thank you enough. Please keep spreading the word!
That’s all for this week. As I said last week, I’ve put the supplementary fiction series The Avalon Chronicler on hold while I dig into full on edit/second draft mode, but please, if you dig this kind of thing and want to see more of it, let me know!
Also, if you have a moment, please check out the draft of my next project:

As I get closer to finishing Avalon, you may see some more updates on that subsequent project!
Thanks and have a great week!
Jason

Hello Readers!
This is a really exciting time for both Welcome to Deadland and me! The book is in the final stages of approval (full dust jacket, internal design, eBook layout) before being sent to the printer in less than a week! I know it seems like ages ago since many of you backed Welcome to Deadland, and I want to thank you all for your patience as we’ve been working hard to get everything in place. The wait is almost over!
Some of you might have seen Inkshares’s recent tweet with a link to their properties page. The purpose of this page is to allow for book properties to be tracked so producers/publishers/etc. can see what options are still available for purchase. This can range from foreign language rights, to film/tv rights, comic book adaptations and more. Even if you’re not someone in the market looking to acquire book rights, it’s a great way to see what other formats you can expect to see your favorite Inkshares books become available in. If you click on the link above you’ll even see Welcome to Deadland listed along with other books, and a neat surprise!
The audiobook rights have been sold to Audible! That’s right, in the near future not only will you be able to read Welcome to Deadland, but you’ll also be able to listen to it in the car, while working out, walking down the street or anywhere else!
Thank you all so much for your interest in support,
-Zac
