Friday Updates!

 So, first of all, the Ravencon kickstarter!

Scheduled in April, Ravencon was one of the first regional cons forced to cancel in 2020. This week the decision was made to cancel 2021 as well.

This put the con in the hole. Vendors and attendees had to be refunded, and the con still needs to pay a deposit to the hotel for 2022. Thus, the kickstarter.

The primary reward is the CORVID-19 anthology, which contains 19 stories that somehow involve birds in the corvidae family.

But we also have some other rewards...quite a few are now taken, but if you want a bridge officer or diplomatic aide named after you in my upcoming novel Kyx, that Tuckerization is still available as of right now (the female character restriction is from April and I can do any gender now).

We also have CDs from some of Ravencon's past music guests, an appearance on an RPG podcast, Tuckerizations from C. McDonnell, Patrick Dugan, Lawrence M. Schoen, Christopher Nuttall, L. Jagi Lamplighter. We're going to add more rewards and are now starting to put together CORVID-19: The Second Wave (any writers who might have crow or raven-related stories? We're taking donations and yes, they can be reprints).

The initial goal is funded, but Ravencon can still use funds to improve future cons or help with charitable initiatives.

Second of all, I just got The Secret History of Victor Prince back from my editor, so expect an early to mid January release on that. It's a prequel of sorts to the Lost Guardians series and sees the return of Victor, Tag, and the addition of an all new character that I happen to love.
