Hello friends!
It's been an exciting (and a little bit stressful) 24 hours watching the numbers go up. We've passed 50 copies a few hours ago, so thank you to everyone who got in nice and early.
These campaigns tend to sell the most at the start and at the end, so it would be amazing if those keen to support the novel could jump on board soon to help create more interest.
If you're yet to make a decision, please check out all the rewards - a few people have earned themselves a shout-out acknowledgement by buying two copies, and there's a couple of people interested in the reward that names a character after them.
In case you missed it, I put together a little video pitch for the campaign which you can share around if you feel the need.
I know lots of you have been spreading the word on Facebook too, which has been awesome. The video has 26 shares and has been seen by about 700 people!
Have a great night and let me know if you have any questions.
Jono Pech
