Great news everyone. Thanks to tremendous support Crow’s Gambit has hit 251 Pre-Orders. That means it will get published under the Quill imprint!

;

There are still about 34 hours left in the campaign. That means there is still time to lock in some of those Pre-Order perks if you haven’t ordered yet (or you have a friend how hasn’t).

• Crow Research Investor ($10) - Supporter will receive a copy of the Crow Research company Prospectus.
  
• Crow Research Employee ($20) - Supporter will receive a copy of the Crow Research Employee Manual and the Prospectus.
• Crow Works Access ($60) - Supporter will receive the Employee Manual, Prospectus, and an identification badge allowing access to the top secret Crow Works (you also get your name on the patron page of the book too).

Thank you everyone for helping make this happen. I will continue to keep you updated as we shift into full editing and production mode.

More will come...

Alright, dearies, another day, another leg of the journey.

First up, I’d like to introduce you to The Donor Sequence right over HERE. Then, we’re going to shake things up with a mental exercise OVER HERE. And to round things out, there are instructions for your next journaling exercise RIGHT HERE that go along with today’s worksheets:

Finally, I’d like to ask that you — if you haven’t done so already — please be sure to share this project using whatever social media is at your disposal. We’ve still only had one pre-order so far, and there are just 55 days left to get this work into as many hands as possible.

Thank you.

Happy Questing,
Rose

Hullo Dearies, I know there was a delay there between updates, but I can assure you it was worth it.

There are three narratemes for you to work with: start HERE with Mediation, then come over HERE for a brief chat on Counteraction, and finish up HERE with Departure. Once you’ve gone over all that today’s worksheet will make perfect sense to you:

Plus, if you’re interested, there’s an article up OVER HERE on taking entrepreneurial advice from Ashenputtle (Cinderella), and OVER HERE there’s a bonus journaling prompt if you are so inclined.

Happy Questing,
Rose

Alright, m’dears, you know how I said you shouldn’t punch fear in the face because you’d basically be punching yourself in 97% of your own face? Well, what I have for you today is in keeping with that.

First up, we have the last of the first set of fear-positive lessons RIGHT HERE. Next, we have the introduction to the next four lessons OVER HERE. Finally, we have the first of those four lessons HERE.

Teaser: while the first set of narratemes were about playing nice with ourselves, the next set is about being patient with ourselves.

And now, the moment we’ve all been waiting for, today’s worksheet:

Also, if you mosey on OVER HERE to the Facebook group, you’ll find a bonus journaling prompt.

Happy Resting,
Rose

Alright, my darling Tricksters, it’s time to exert a little self-control.

In the most recent lesson on Trickery OVER HERE, we discussed little ways we’re more than likely to trip ourselves up, and now it’s time for you to use today’s worksheet to slow down and watch what you’re doing:

As a know-it-all, I find that reminding myself there’s always more to learn (even from those things I’m already sure I know) is a particularly useful practice.

Happy questing,

Rose

Oh, my dearies, in the lesson on Delivery HERE we’re talking about how to take a healthier approach to questioning ourselves and starting a list of allies for when we need them.

As such, your next goody is part worksheet, part cheatsheet:

Also, in case you haven’t signed up to get them by email, I have an article HERE about Andersen’s “The Little Match Girl” while OVER HERE a new journaling prompt is up on the topic of Everyday Magic.

Happy Questing,

Hi, readers! First, thanks to everyone who is new on the list. I am in the home stretch of this campaign, but I plan to thank everyone personally as soon as it’s over and I’m able to recover. 

A few news items: I’m doing live updates every day on my Facebook page: facebook.com/caridubielauthor - They’re really short, no more than 5 minutes so far, and sometimes include guest appearances from cute children. I’m also doing a Final Day of Reckoning event on there, February 9 at 7pm. We didn’t make the Amazon gift card this week, but I promise I will have lots of giveaways and fun for my supporters that night.

I was SO excited to be on Jungle Red Writers yesterday! This is a great blog full of talented mystery writers - both the bloggers and the readers - and fabulous fans. Check it out and give it a follow! Also, my podcast with Beth is back, although I’m still messing with the feeds, so you might have to go directly to Soundcloud to listen.

Hoping everyone has a wonderful day! 67 copies to go with just under two weeks! Please tell everyone you know, and if you feel so inclined, write me a recommendation on Inkshares. Here’s the link again.

Unless there are delays,

BB will

release in thirty days.

It’s a poem I’ve been wanting to write for ages.  Congrats to us all, and I wish everyone FANTASTIC success!!!

Holy Christmas, Holy Christmas, Holy Christmas.

You guys, I am so excited to be sending this update to you. The lesson on Reconnaissance is HERE and there are no less than 4 worksheets associated with this lesson.

Don’t worry, don’t worry. It’s all very straightforward stuff, reviewing what you’ve already done and just making a little shift in perspective in order to continue building your new questing muscles.

But we are reaching a level of mild gamification here and I am just so stoked to be sharing this with you:

ALSO, the last time I sent you an update, I forgot to mention that 31 Days of Narratemes is now taking pre-orders! You may be asking yourself: Why didn’t this weirdo let us know the day of going live, why did she wait for a Reader Update and then another when she forgot to do it the first time?
Fun fact: I have OCD subtype Sinner/Doubter, so when I make a routine/schedule for how and when I’m going to pop into your inbox, I follow the routine/schedule because respecting your time is respecting you.

Not-so-secret fact: this guided journal I’m creating is how I went from full-on hoarding compulsion to a clean apartment. My next Inkshares project will be a kind of memoir about that, but for now going HERE and pre-ordering the journal is totally an option.

Happy Questing,
Rose

Well now, dearie, aren’t we coming right along?

The writing is going ahead of schedule, everything is posting on time, and pre-orders are now available. Busy bees are humming up in here! There’s even a workshop on The Shivers OVER HERE in the Facebook group, the visuals are weird but I stand behind what I’ve made for you 100%.

HERE is the lesson on the Violation of the Interdiction, wherein we begin to get our questing on. As well we should, because questing is all about learning and growing and ain’t that just a big ol’ part of life? Anyhoo, here is the accompanying worksheet for the lesson:

By the way, there’s a Facebook group over HERE where lessons are shared immediately after being posted to Inkshares (in case you don’t want to wait for the worksheets, and just want to get a jump on the journaling). Also, I post special journaling prompts in the group on the mornings that new lessons come out which can provide a little nudge on those days you feel like participating in the Morning Writing.

For new readers, you can find my live-streamed writing accountability practice HERE if you’d like to join in. I just found out how to join in the Live Chat portion, so here’s hoping that doesn’t derail my own progress, haha!

Happy Questing,
Rose
