One... Last... Box...

Update #15 · Mar 12, 2013 · 3 comments

Many of you have received copies of Antiquities & Tangibles, and others should receive them soon. I hope you like them!

One box of copies was delayed, but I expect it to show up this week, and I'll get the last batch of copies sent out as soon as possible once they're in my hands. (I have envelopes and mailing labels just waiting for contents). I'll post an update when they're ALL sent out. Initial responses are very positive. It's a beautiful book.

Paperbacks Have Landed!

Update #14 · Feb 22, 2013 · 2 comments

My wait is over, and yours is nearly over! I got the first box of Antiquities and Tangibles paperbacks today, and it looks fantastic. Jenn Reese did a bang-up job with the cover, and John Teehan's interior design is divine. 

I'll start packing them up this weekend and shipping them out next week, along with all the other prizes that are still pending. There are a couple more boxes of books en route, which I expect to receive soon, and I'll move them along as promptly as I can. I expect to get all the rewards sent within the next few weeks.

Thank you all so much for your support, and your patience. The book is beautiful. I'm pleased, and I think you will be too.

Print Copies Update

Update #13 · Feb 5, 2013 · comment

Hi all,

So the print copies of the collection weren't quite as imminent as I'd hoped when I last updated. I just talked to the publisher at Merry Blacksmith, and he hopes to get me copies later this month. As soon as I get them, I will do a vast mailing and send them out, along with all the other stuff that's still pending ('zines, copies of my other collection, etc.). My apologies for the delay, and I'll keep you posted. If it's any consolation, I haven't even seen a copy of the print edition yet!

E-books Sent, Print Copies Imminent

Update #12 · Jan 2, 2013 · comment

The e-book bundle for Antiquities and Tangibles and Other Stories has been sent to all eligible backers -- if you didn't get it, and you were supposed to, drop me a note at timpratt@gmail.com and we'll get it sorted out. The files are off to the print publisher, who hopes to have copies ready in late January, or in February.

We're nearly there!

Second Interior Art

Update #11 · Dec 28, 2012 · comment

Here's the second piece of interior art, created by Kat Beyer (http://www.katspaw.com/) for my story "The Fairy Library". It will be black-and-white in the print edition, but in color in the e-book.
