Latest Updates from Our Project:

Pledge Manager
over 1 year ago – Fri, Dec 09, 2022 at 09:14:43 AM

The pledge manager has been created and is under review. Be on the lookout for a survey from BackerKit to complete your order and pay for shipping.  (Note a local pick up option has been made available for the friends and family that live in NJ). Survey is planned to be sent on 12/12 (don't forget to check your spam folder). Please complete these surveys by 12/17 to ensure there are no delays processing your order.

Production update: 

  • E-Book: Dedications and Producer credits have been completed and E-book finalized. PDF files will be sent after the pledge manager closes on 12/17
  • Book: Production files are with the printer and they are completing a final quality test on the stickers.
  • Coins: Production order has been submitted

Thanks again for your support and hope you are having a great holiday season!

That's a wrap! Thanks to your support, Crow the Courageous will now become a reality! Once we have collected the pledge funds we will send out the pledge manager to collect your shipping address and remaining pledge details. If you wish to add more books or coins to your order you can do so during the pledge manager. Look for an email with a survey link from Backerkit to complete this important step.

From all of us to all of you, THANK YOU!

We are coming into the final 48hrs of the campaign as well as the start of the busy holiday season. Before it gets busy I wanted to take a moment to say thank you for your support bringing this project to life!

So what's next?

  • Nov 25th the Campaign will end
  • Nov 26th I will release the pledge manager so that you may finalize your pledge. This is where you can add additional items and pay for shipping. Additionally this survey will collect your address for the physical items and your e-mail address so I can send the e-book. 
  • For dedication & publisher pledges I will send you an email to collect the details on the information you would like included in the 1st publication of the book(your timely response is appreciated). 
  • E-books will be sent by the 11th of Dec.
  • Printed materials and coins will go into production as soon as I have the dedication and publisher details collected.
  • I will continue to keep you informed as production and freight information is made available. 

Happy Thanksgiving!

Halfway through the campaign

We just reached the halfway point of the campaign and are about to move into black Friday week. If you know anyone that would be interested in supporting our efforts to build a community of courage, please share the link. It would be much appreciated. 

In the news, we just obtained our UPCs, EANs, and ISBN numbers for the book. Here are a few pics of the sample I received from the manufacturer :)

Looking forward to sharing with the world :)
