Hello wonderful Backers!!

The big news is that the books are in the mail!  

If you have a Standard or especially Deluxe Book of Nine Scribes heading your way, PLEASE please watch this video... 

This first wave of books only includes Kickstarter Backers.  If you ordered a book after the Kickstarter ended, yours is still on the way, but will be about two weeks behind the main orders.  Because backers.  

If you requested to pick your books up at the Kickstarter release party...

The Kickstarter Release Party is NEXT WEEKEND!!

Saturday, February 2, 2019 at 5 PM 

Wonko's Toys and Games

I will be there, and we'll have a special guest Mutsumi Hackworth (the person who scribed the Japanese section of the book) there as well!

We will have a few spare books and bookmarks on sale, and we are super excited to be able to meet any of you who are interested in talking to us about books, games, or lots of other geeky type topics.

Hello wonderful backers!

While literally the last moment of 2018, the books are done!

It is truly an inspiring mass of stacks and stacks of arcane forbidden knowledge.  

The packaging process and the Kickstarter release party start tomorrow.  I will keep you updated as we get closer to things actually going out the door...

Thank you all!

You rock!  And HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Production and Shipping update
over 5 years ago – Thu, Nov 29, 2018 at 04:03:04 PM

Hello wonderful Backers!

I've seen a few request for delivery updates, so here's what I know.  

The short version is, we're making books, but I think with the holiday madness, the most likely time you will have your stuff in hand will be January.  I was hoping to get them out before Christmas, but while there is a chance we might have them physically ready by then, it will probably take a week or so for all the labeling, box building, and packaging before we even schedule with the postal people.  

The Longer Version

Production is continuing and books are happening.  

For example

 We were working all the books concurrently, but naturally the easier ones got finished first.  

That means

• Raphael's Talismans - Complete
• Books 1, 2, 3, AND 4 of the Occult - Complete
• Malleus Maleficarum - Complete
• Original 2016 Goat Hide Spell books - Complete

and we should have all the Demonality and Dictionnaire Infernals done next week.  

The core spell books (The actual Book of Nine Scribes) are going to be the last ones because we had delays with all the metal bits, they have the extra paper process, and the metal bits take longer to add in general.  

If you have any super emergency special requests, please send me an email at [email protected] and while I make no promises, I will see what I can do.  

The Kickstarter Release Party

The Kickstarter Release Party will happen roughly about the same time we put all the packages in the mail.  This is where people who want to pick theirs up will be able to, and we will also have (ideally) some spares on sale.  This will be at Wonko's, probably a weekend in January.  We will post an official date once every book is complete. 

.  

Thank you all once again for being so awesome in general.  

Please if you have any questions, sending me a direct message or email is always the fastest way to get a response.  

You Rock

-Steve

Midway through production and pdfs are sent!
over 5 years ago – Fri, Oct 19, 2018 at 09:44:28 PM

Hello wonderful backers!

We're at about the midway point in the production process, and I wanted to give you all an idea how things were progressing.

We sent out the pdf of the Book of Nine Scribes today to all who qualify

Those of you who pledged at the Conjurer level or higher should see emails for links to download the pdfs.  Note that was plural.  We had to divide it into three separate files because total the thing was over 650mb and the max download size is apparently 250mb. Fear not, every page in there, just broken up into three sections.  I figured you would prefer three really high quality pdfs rather than one pdf of a lesser quality.

I also figured if any of you wanted to print out some pages or sections for Halloween, well, I'd better get these to you soon... :)

If you do not see this email with your downloads, please let me know.

Bookmarks are done

Behold

The Books are still relatively on schedule

Paper is done, printing is done, binding is in progress.  The metal for the exterior of the Book of Nine Scribes is coming along, but will be the last thing to be completed.  

Bottom line:  We will probably have all these done and stacked in piles all over the place by about mid- to late-December.  Having said that, I didn't really figure in the holiday mailing madness when originally scheduling this.  Assume for now you will have these in your hands mid- to late-January, and we'll do everything we can to get them out sooner than that.  

News on the Austin Release Party coming in the next update!

Reminder: Sept 17th we lock orders, and Sept 18th we charge cards
over 5 years ago – Fri, Sep 14, 2018 at 12:13:14 PM

Hello wonderful backers!

Just a happy reminder that the system will lock orders on Sept 17th, and then charge credit cards etc. on Sept 18th. 

Does that mean you are locked out of the system at that point?  No, but we're going to start ordering materials and production based on the numbers we have then, and it can become problematic to tweak orders after that.  

If you have special circumstances you haven't told me about already, please PM me and let me know asap so we can make sure you get what you want.

Thank you all again.  You rock!
