Hello everyone! The campaign is 2/3 fulfilled with more getting done every day. Gotten some great pictures of people posting their books which I appreciate. Definitely spread the word on this series because more people should be reading it!
I'm waiting for variants and hardcovers to come in from the printer, should get here any day now.
On the t-shirt/poster front as usual those come from an outside vendor so look for a separate package but we had a hiccup-- unfortunately the guy who fulfilled these usually died this summer. He was a good friend and I'm really saddend by his loss. His brother has taken over the company but needed some time so we had a little delay, but he assures me they're getting printed this week and should be shipping in August. Thanks for understanding there.
Otherwise, we're hard at work on the next Ayla Rin installment, and doing some short tests for comics including doing my popular Steampunk novel series, The Adventures of Baron Von Monocle. It's looking really good so we might go forward finally after all these years. You can read the series on Amazon here.

They're on their way! This is exciting news, but at the same time, I am going to San Diego Comic Con next week so I might not get these in time to get some books out before my trip. If I get them by Tuesday, Ill start mailing out a batch, but otherwise I'll start shipping upon my return next week.
If you're at the convention and want to say hi drop me an email jdaguestposts at gmail and I'd be happy to get together!
Otherwise, my Von Monocle series is almost entirely available on audiobook. You can start the series here and catch up to the new book, The Crystal Conspiracy. I'm doing a test now to see if we can pull off steampunk comics to make this a multimedia universe and the pages are looking REALLY good.
Thanks all!

Hey everyone! Last week I got my proof copy in and it looks beautiful in person. Very happy to be able to get these out to you soon. I submitted the full order at the printer and am now just waiting for them to deliver. Usually takes 1-2 weeks on that front so we should start shipping by the end of the month.
I'm hard at work on a few projects: a new superteam, the next Ayla Rin comic, and a special surprise for Flying Sparks fans which will come as soon as these get shipped out.
I also dropped my new Von Monocle novel on Amazon if you didn't see it -- the paperback and kindle versions of The Crystal Conspiracy are live. Zaira takes her airship to uncharted territory to try to uncover ancient technology to turn the course of the war against the Nightmen. Read it here.
Back to writing for me. See you guys soon!
Digital Books Are Delivered!

What's up everyone? The digital books just went out for everyone's orders. Even if you just ordered a physical copy, the digital's included. Just wanted to get these out as we get ready for print.
There was a weird backerkit glitch with about 30 people's orders where it said the survey wasn't filled out correctly. I fixed it. You should be getting another email from BackerKit with your digital download link though, so check your inboxes.
Thank you so much for your support. Hope you enjoy the Flying Sparks ending!

There's a panel toward the end of the book that I didn't like, so I'm getting it redone before it goes out to you. Gonna push us back a little bit but I want the end of the story to pop. :)
Hope you have a good weekend my friends!
