The first draft for my dark fantasy novella, “PARIAH: VAIL OF THE BLACKBLADE” is nearly done! It’s looking like it’s going to close in around 90 pages when completely. A nice introductory novella for the world of Alas’tair of Kyvah, the Blackblade!
Once it’s done and ready to go to print, I’m going to be offering it first as a Kickstarter project.
This is what will be on offer for the sole reward tier.
Perfect-bound novella with Kickstarter-exclusive Limited Edition Cover
Audiobook
11x17" movie poster-style print
11x17" map poster of Vaelthyr (the nation where the story takes place)
Die-cut bookmark of Alas’tair’s sword, Charish
Music soundtrack (possibly on physical disc)
I think I can do all of this for $22-25. The eventual Amazon release would be the book only without the goodies and a different, more mainstream-friendly cover.
I’m so hyped for this. It’s a new dawn. I have a slate of novellas and full-length novels on the horizon. I’m hoping to build a new audience that loves this kind of storytelling.
Stay tuned!
