Wow, wow, wow.
Just a little while ago, the Kickstarter drive for the first trilogy the 12 for ’12 project–novels based on my Brave New World RPG–shattered its first goal of $3,000. That means I’m going to spend January writing the first book in the Brave New World trilogy! I can’t tell you how thrilled I am about that, especially since we pulled it off in about 48 hours.
The pledge that put us over the top also claimed the first of the limited rewards at the higher levels, and I’m just grinning that I’m going to get to come up with a new Delta character with that particular gentleman. It’s that kind of working with readers and players that makes creating this material so much fun.
Of course, this is just the beginning. The next number we’re shooting for is $8,000, at which point the second novel gets unlocked. With all the support we’ve garnered so far, I have little doubt we’ll be able to reach that. I’d like to get there as fast as we can, though, so we can tackle the later goals with plenty of time to spare.
First, though, I want to thank each and every one of my backers who jumped on this rocket early. I literally couldn’t do any of this without them. For the rest of you, well, the higher we go, the more books we get, and that’s going to make for a wonderful ride. Join us!
