Hi, Aurora Fans.

Fulfillment has begun for physical products. Several already were shipped on Friday. I'm awaiting additional copies ofC.A.T.s and the Destiny Aurora: Visarath War books to come in from the printer. I expect everything within the next two weeks. So, the wait is almost over. 

I hope you have all been enjoying the Audio Book. I've been listening to it again myself. I find it very entertaining and I've listened to it several times already. Let me know your experience in the comments section.

EXCITING NEWS

I'm so excited to finally announce the launch date for Lords of LA #2 and it's...wait for it...TOMORROW!  That's right. Starting bright and early, you can jump on those Early Bird Specials that will only last for a couple of days and then will expire- never to be available again.

You can still get notified by clicking this link -  Lords of LA Pre-Launch Page

In other amazing news, I will be doing a LIVE LAUNCH STREAM Q&A beginning tomorrow Nov 5th at 1pm est. Click the link below to access the live stream. I will be talking about writing comics, film, and television and the development on both sides. If you're interested in the creative process, this will the perfect time to ask me all about it.

I will also be revealing a couple of new projects, including a new card game! I am partnering with an artist that comic fans might recognize. Exciting stuff! So join me tomorrow where I will also be revealing the new Lords of LA Promo Video (which you can also view by clicking the link--Sshhh! Don't tell anyone).

Digital Rewards Sent! YAY!!
over 2 years ago – Mon, Oct 16, 2023 at 07:03:25 PM

Hi, Aurora fans,

I have exciting news! Check your email. You should have received an email containing your Digital Rewards. Everyone should have received the link to download the audio book chapters as well as any graphic novels or pros novels that you might have ordered. 

I'm really excited to hear your feedback. I hope you all enjoy hearing the story of Jayce Carver and the misfit crew of the Destiny Aurora as much as I enjoyed writing it. The twist will have you wondering what comes next. 

If you can leave a review on Amazon it would be greatly appreciated.

If for some reason, you didn't receive the email and you've already checked your junk mail, then please reach out to me and I'll send it to you directly. I have ordered many of the items needed to fulfill the physical rewards, so look for those arriving at your doorstep soon.

In other news, for those of you who are fans of Lords of LA, the campaign for issue 2 will be launching soon. I am also working with Mark Spears on a card game utilizing his Classic Monster Art called Riftstorm.  Lots of exciting news. I'll be sharing art from these projects in later updates along with news of physical rewards being mailed.

Thank you all for continuing to support Destiny Horizons projects.

Pledge Manager - Smoke Test
over 2 years ago – Tue, Aug 29, 2023 at 08:36:47 PM

Hi, Aurora fans,

I have finally settled into my new home in Atlanta. Thank you all for your well-wishes. The good news is: the Pledge Manager for the campaign has now been completed and approved by Backerkit. A smoke test has been sent out, so some of you may have received an email from Backerkit with the Pledge Survey.

Once I get the feedback on the survey, I will be sending out the Pledge Survey to all donors, probably within the next 48 hours. 

Once you receive your Pledge Manager, you can review your order as well as add items to your order.  Many of you have messaged me about this during the campaign if you would be able to add to your order, and this would where you would do that. Please see the example screens below.

1. Check your pledge level and enter your state/country. Then click "Get Started!" Additional questions may also be asked here. For example, it may be asked if you have an Audible account. This question is asked for the Audiobooks as I will send you a code to unlock the audiobook in Audible, so you can have it on your devices, which may be more convenient for some of you. 

2. Click "Add to Cart" for any add-ons you might want. The PDF logo on the image means that it is a digital version of the product, while a "Signed" logo means that it is a physical copy. Digital versions will have a zero shipping cost. All physical copies will have individual shipping costs that will be calculated in the total . 

In the case below, a digital copy of the C.A.T.s graphic novel has been added to the total with zero shipping. This gives us a $3.00 balance to be paid on the payment screen. 

4. Shipping. Add your shipping address to your Pledge. If you only have digital rewards in your pledge, then a shipping address may not be necessary.  If you have to alter your address in the near future, you may do so in Backerkit, or you may message us.

5.  Confirm & Payment. This screen breaks down your Pledge, add-ons, and shipping costs. To the right is where you place your payment information. Once you have completed this step, your survey will be completed. We will keep the Pledge Manager open for about 45 days, but the sooner everyone completes the survey, the faster I can get the orders out. If your pledge is locked and you want to add something else, please message us and we will unlock it for you. It's a simple procedure of a press of a button on our end. 

If you have any questions, please do not hestitate to message me. You can do so through Kickstarter, Facebook, or email me at [email protected]. 

I am trying to grow my Youtube channel, so please subscribe to me by clicking this link - My YouTube Channel. I do movie reviews, comic reviews, and more.

Thank you all for your continued support.

Pledge Manager and My Move
over 2 years ago – Tue, Jul 25, 2023 at 12:48:14 PM

Hi, Aurora fans,

I wanted to start with an apology. I know I've been a little radio silent and that's for one reason -- I'm moving across the country.  That's right, I'm leaving Los Angeles in the wake of the WGA and SAG union strikes. My destination -- Atlanta GA. There are some major studios there and productions are growing. This is were Marvel shoots as well. 

My timing isn't great as scripted production and progamming has ceased completely, but by the end of the year everything should be back to normal. 

Naturally, all of my time has been sucked into the black hole of boxing and packing. Like any relocation endeavor, you never know how much stuff you have until you try to move it. I have to be in Atlanta by the 10th of August, which will be when my POD lands at my new residence.

What this means to all of you is that I'm a bit behind in completing the set up of the Pledge Manager. Once I complete my move in, I'll be finishing it. So look for the Pledge Manger by Mid-August.

Again, I apologize for not being more communicative, but it won't be long now before we will get product into your hands. In the meantime, artists are still working away on my other two projects. The Tales of Ravenore D&D Module. I'll put a pic in below and the Lords of LA volume 2 comic book. I'll be working on getting them ready as well once I settle in. 

Mike Spider-Slayer (Youtuber) and I are also woring on a new comic series called Razor Fox and Mark Spears and I will be working an area control deck-building card game featuring his classic monster artwork. 

Wish me luck and I will do another update once I have the Pledge Manager ready. In the meantime, if you have any questions, feel free to reach out. Also I have reviews for both Barbie and Oppenheimer on my Youtube channel if you want to check them out.

YAY! We Did It!

Hi, Destiny Aurora fans,

I cannot express my gratitude enough.  Thank you all so much for making this a reality. I'm looking forward to getting these products to you, especially the audiobook.  I will be launching the pledge manager soon.   Soon thereafter I will be delivering all of the digital items. If you have an audible account let me know, I will put the question in the pledge manager as well. I will deliver a code, so you can have the audiobook in your library as well as the download.

Also, check out my Youtube Channel - Click Here

Until next time.
