The Utter Annihilation of ALL STRETCH GOALS

Once again, I find myself moved by the eagerness and generosity of you guys! Yesterday, a gang of generous backers managed to sign up and smash the remaining stretch goals - the production goals of making the book an utter beaut!
So now, I am very honored to say that the physical copy of Griz Grobus will be sport a cloth spine, some gold leaf - it's going to be incredible. And more than that, we'll have a few copies of Linnea Sterte's awesome comic up for grabs!
With that in mind, if you want to adjust your pledge to include anything else - the Linnea Sterte story, or the Father Stanley Miniature, or anything - Jacob Lane Salentine was kind enough to give some instruction:
Manage Your Pledge > Re-select your current pledge tier (or a different one, if you'd rather change it) and confirm > Add-On menu will be open
Also, in the spirit of good vibes, I wanted to give a shout out to Ross Radke's cool new book "STOMPED" - a fiesta of gargantuan monsters - which looks great! Take a look here!
Thanks again, and more updates as they come!

This update is mainly just a huge thank-you to everyone who has pledged so far - I am overjoyed with the response this campaign has gotten. In a mere week, we funded the book and blew past the paltry stretch goals. My sincerest gratitude!
This next week I'm investigating a few final options for add-ons and stretch goals, but in the meantime, I highly recommend taking a look at Matt Emmon's new book, "The Council of Frogs"!
I had the pleasure of reading a big chunk of it last month, and found myself particularly compelled by the imagery - an adorable gaggle of frogs, seemingly in service to a still-living bog body, sending out one of their own on an adventure that vastly dwarfs himself - all in all, a bunch of stuff i am an absolute sucker for.
Matt Emmons has also been my guru in all things kickstarter, ever since i first began entertaining the dreadful idea of running one of these campaigns, and never hesitated to give me advice on the planning, fulfillment, and promotion of a successful campaign (not to mention his co-mastermindship of Dagger Dagger, a book I am still tremendously proud to be a part of). The fellow is a true mensch - tho, more importantly, this book of his looks wonderful.
Much love,
Simon

Yesterday evening, we blew through our first stretch goal - a print copy of the Linnea Sterte-drawn "THE ENVOY AND THE WARRIOR"!
I've been a huge fan of Linnea (and a little jealous of her power) ever since I first saw her work, so having her draw a story of mine is an absolute dream - and one I'm pleased as punch to share with you all!
The print run will only be 500 copies, which should be more then enough for our purposes (and due to the horrible canadian dollar - sorry, fellow canadians - we're pricing it at $18 CAD per - still a breezy 13 bucks american, as of this second)
If you'd like to add this bad boy to the order, you should be able to throw it on now as an add-on!
A huge thanks for the support so far! NOW, ON TO THE NEXT STRETCH GOAL - A CLOTH SPINE!

A huge thank you to everyone who has come on board so far - the book is now funded, and funded dramatically in JUST BARELY UNDER 24 HOURS! One of those real nail-biting, watch-the-clock type dramatic moments!
I'm going to try and relax, but I'll be back soon with more updates!
