Surveys & an update!

Update #6 · Mar 28, 2012 · 1 comment

Hi folks!  This is just a quick note to let you know that backer surveys started going out today, and we should get all of them out by tomorrow night.

Also, I have spoken with our fine author and she has informed me that "Braided" the next book in Sappho's Fables by Elora Bishop will be available April 3rd, and will be included in the choices for ebook gifts.  If you already received a survey and would like to receive "Braided," let me know in the box marked 'other' or leave a comment here.

Thanks!  And thanks again for your support of the Dark Wife Audiobook!
