Hey guys, follows or anyone interested in the book series, I’ll most likely end up taking off the first chapter read and instead do a video of what the series is all about, giving a bit more detail in regards to the entire thing.

Because believe it or not, it’s not actually all set in a post-apocalyptic setting. The Fifth Book, which is essentially "The Hobbit" of the series is completely full of characters in a more traditional fantasy setting that has a very real feel to it.

If there are any questions you would want me to include in the video let me know, I want to really explore into it and explain as much as possible without giving away too much of the overarching story.

Take care, and if you could please recommend the book, that would be a great help.

SO EXCITED!  I put Dragon Siege cover design concept out for a contest and look what the artist came up with.  Fantastic!  Contest closes tomorrow - but they are going to have to go a long way to beat this one.  Totally bad ass!  https://www.designcontest.com/book-cover-design/dragon-siege/entry/4/

Hello early readers of Reset the System! I wanted you all to be the first to know, that I have been putting together some raffle prize packages in anticipation of the funding campaign, specifically designed to reward early supporters of the book. Everyone that helps get the book to Quill once I launch the campaign will be entered into up to ten raffles for ten prize packages, as my way of thanking you for supporting the book. The early information about the prize packages is listed under the excerpts from the book, under the extended synopsis of the story, and also included at the end of this message. Please spread the word to your own circles about the book and the prizes, with a planned launch date of September 2016.

Every copy of the book you pre-order entitles you to a raffle ticket for for each prize draw after your pre-order. I will come up with a schedule of the prize draw dates closer to the campaign launch. If you order one copy at the beginning of the campaign, that gives you one ticket in each draw - 2 copies, 2 tickets, etc!

From the book’s description page:

Reset the System is going to be a fun book to read, and it will also be a fun book to fund and participate in...Because I want to thank my early supporters, the first 250 pre-order supporters that bring me to Quill will be entered into raffle competition for several sweet prizes (if you buy more than one pre-order copy, you get the equivalent amount of entries into each of the ten draws, so five copies means five entries into each draw for a total of 50 chances to win). The raffle will take place as soon as I hit the Quill mark. 

A full and more official list will follow in the near future to coincide with my campaign, but prizes will include: 

 1. A signed special edition novel by a famous author 

 2. A book lover’s reading package 

 3. A leather-bound antique book 

 4. A movie package 

 5. A video game package 

 6. A surprise package 

 7. Signed copies of two of my previously published books 

 8. A Canadian care package 

 9. Surprise science fiction memorabilia 

 10. Surprise horror memorabilia 

 *I will pay the shipping costs on all raffle winnings to anywhere in North America.

If the fun raffle prizes are not enough to motivate you into helping me reach my goal, I have also decided that when my book hits 500 pre-order copies, I will post a video to Inkshares of me having my head shaved by a mystery person wearing a strange costume (Vader, a jester, a cyborg? suggestions?). I have never shaved my head before, but I will do it to make you laugh. Then for fun, I will pose for a photograph of me looking upwards like the clones on my book cover, and send all of my supporters a photoshopped version of the cover with my own face repeated instead of the clones. Sound wild? I hope so.

Thank you if you have taken the time to read this, but mostly, thank you for being an early believer in Reset the System. If you can find time to recommend or spread the word about the draft and story, please do. I can’t wait for you to see the full first chapter, which has has some serious revision after draftshares, and will be posted soon.

Please let me know what you think of Sept. 1st as my campaign start date, I would love to hear your thoughts and advice.

I hope you are all well,

Happy June,

Jeremy
