Update #1: Day 2 of our Kickstarter campaign

Posted on June 2, 2011

Thanks to everyone who has helped us out thus far.  We appreciate it beyond word.

We have a lot of swag for every tier of our Kickstarter but especially from the writer Dennis Tafoya who will be at The Philadelphia Writer's Conference doing his thing.  Check out his blog if you don't know him on his linked name.  

Thanks everyone.

Paul von Stoetzel
