Greetings again. As we near the end of the Space Opera contest I hope you all have had a chance to look at some the books at the top of the competition. There are some interesting ideas and good books on the list.
I wanted to make sure you all knew that “Fortunes of the Space Sloth” is not going away with the end of the contest. There are 59 days left to reach the pre-order goal and the crew will be pushing on with their adventure.
Based on my progress this weekend I have high hopes that the full first draft will be completed by this time next week (unless the Space Sloth crew gets into some mess they haven’t told me about yet). At that point I’ll be shifting to refining some parts of the narrative and really starting some outreach. I hope you all stick around for the rest of the adventure.
And as always, I thank you for your support.
Thank you all for your support! It’s been a big help to see how much of a response I’ve gotten with very little outreach. When I made this pitch so late into the Nerdist contest’s timeframe, I was a little discouraged that I would not be able to get any sort of recognition.
But look at us! We’re above halfway in the contest. It might be crazy to attempt, but I think that if we all put some work into this we might even make top ten in three days.
But no effort on your part should go unrewarded. For each order I get from now until the 15th, I will post an update that will explain and define the world of As the Wheel Turns. Anything from denizens of the Triumvirate to the strange culture that permeates it, written within the world and supplemented with scripture and sketches.These will go up daily, starting tomorrow. If there’s enough orders, these may even become bi-daily.
The second chapter is in the works, and will be up soon. Also, I will be redrawing the cover tonight to give it some more color and flair.
Thanks again!
