Good News! We are still a go for launch on April 9th, 2012. The manuscript was turned in to the formatter this last week and I should have the galley edits back by the 21st of March. It’s really happening!

My most grateful and heartfelt thanks to everyone who has pledged financial support and offered emotional encouragement! You are all amazing!

It’s a dream come true!
Thank you!!

Sincerely humbled,
Athena

    Tier 9 of the reward scale includes all of the above tiers PLUS “Patron Saint” status on the world of Aria. A patron saint might be the protector or guardian of a river, or a guild or even an entire culture on the mythical world of Aria where our main character Fable was born. If you are so inclined, we can even discuss including your photo on the website or in the book near the glossary with a description and brief history of your particular Patron Saint Status. And, then next time you’re in Portland, Ore. I’d very much like to buy you a drink at a marvelous little martini bar I know, and say thank you in person.
