Posted project update #7A Big Thanks!
I just wanted to write a quick note and thank everybody for your pledges. We didn't meet the goal so the project won't be funded, but I really appreciate all of the support and letters of encouragement I received. I've redoubled my efforts to find and agent and publisher and get this book out into the world.
Thanks again.
Matthew

Posted project update #640 Days Left
Post CommentWe've got 40 days left, and we're almost halfway there. A big thank you to everybody who has been spreading the word. If you have a blog, or are on Facebook, please continue to tell your friends!
Also, if you know any schools in the Salt Lake area that might be interested in an author visit, I'm trying to put together a few school visits. I've found that is a great way to get the message out.
Thanks again for your support!

Posted project update #5The Editing Process
Post CommentHi, all. We're making some good progress. Thank you again for your support. If you know anybody else who has enjoyed my books, please let them know about this site. If we don't reach our goal, then the project doesn't get funded!
I am currently editing the book one last time before I send it off to my editor. She will make sure the book is in top condition before we send it to the printer. I'm hoping to have it done so that as soon as we hit the goal I can get the printing started. This way you'll get your book as soon as possible.
Thanks again for your support, and please send your friends to the site. You can also send them here, so they can read the first chapter.

Talk with you soon.

Posted project update #4Project of the Day
Post CommentHey, we're the project of the day! Kickstarter has us on their front page.
Thanks to all the new backers. Just as a reminder, the second chapter is up. You can find it in the project updates reserved only for backers.
We're nearing 25% of the goal. I really appreciate all your support. If you know anybody who has read my other two books, please let them know about this project. It will be the only way they will be able to get a book for at least a year's time.
I'm continuing to make final edits. I'll keep you posted.
Again, thank you so much for your support.

My name is Matthew Buckley. I have written two books, Chickens in the Headlights and Bullies in the Headlights. I'm a father of five sons, and I spend most of my time trying to keep up with them.
Matthew,
I was very disappointed to see that Almost Super was not fully funded. As I'm finding out with my own project (Martin's Ghost), it's a long way from $0 to $5,000. I think you did a great job.
Best of luck with the publishing and any future projects. You're very talented. I'm really looking forward to buying a copy of Almost Super. Please let me know if you get it out there.
Best wishes,
William
