All Books Are Ordered!
over 3 years ago – Thu, Sep 17, 2020 at 08:13:00 PM

Thank you for all your patience. I am so pleased with the Runewild and glad that everything is finally wrapping up.

I'm excited to say that all print books have been ordered. For those getting the Kickstarter exclusive edition in premium color, you should have gotten an email letting you know. It says it's the Missus Switch preview, but I just attached the Kickstarter edition to that because it's easier than creating a new product and less confusing that attaching it to the standard edition.

For those of you who are getting the Kickstarter exclusive in standard color, there's something odd with DriveThru's complimentary copy tool that didn't let me select it, so I ordered all one at a time through my account. This means that I'm getting all the email's related to them, but I will update you when your books ship. (It's also why it took longer that I'd hoped to get them out).

As I've mentioned before, printing is being delayed due to Covid. At the worst I had a book take nearly a month to get to me. Recently it's been better, but who knows what the future will bring.

Thank you for all your patience. I am so pleased with the Runewild and glad that everything is finnally wrapping up.

Kickstarter Exclusive Edition - Last Call for Address Updates
over 3 years ago – Mon, Sep 07, 2020 at 02:32:58 AM

Hello Kickstarter Backers,

I've finally gotten the proof copy of the Kickstarter Exclusive edition of the Runewild and it looks good! It's taken a while, so if you are a backer receiving the Kickstarter Exclusive edition and you have moved recently, please let me know via Kickstarter message or emailing [email protected].

Similarly, these books can take several weeks to print and ship, so if you are planning to move within the next month, let me know and we'll figure out how to make sure you don't miss your book.

I'm planning to start ordering these books on Wednesday, so please let me know by Tuesday if you need an address update.

I'm super excited to get these final rewards shipped out.

Thanks,

Matthew

Print Books Away!
over 3 years ago – Fri, Aug 07, 2020 at 01:31:27 AM

Hello Runewild Backers,

Just a quick note to let you know that I've finished ordering the print copies of the standard editions of the Runewild Camapaign Setting! It looks like some that I ordered first are even starting to ship. It looks like the UK printer seems to be going faster than the US printer, but hopefully those books will get out to people in the next few weeks.

I've also completed the layout for the Kickstarter Exclusive edition of the book and uploaded the files for processing. Once those are accepted I'll need to order a quick proof of that too and then I'll send those out.

Hope to wrap this up soon!

Thanks,

Matthew J. Hanson

Proofs are In!
almost 4 years ago – Thu, Jul 23, 2020 at 06:49:57 AM

I've finally gotten the proof copies back for the Runewild, and overall, there looking good! This means I'm finally gearing up to start sending out the print books!

This also means that if you have changed addresses recently please let me know. I sent out a 48-hour reminder email through Backer Kit, but if you don't see it you can also message me through Kickstarter or email [email protected]. I'm going to start putting in the orders this weekend, so please let me know by Friday if you have an address change.

Exclusive Edition

The very last thing we need to do for the Kickstarter is get the exclusive edition finalized. I wanted to make sure the standard edition looked good in print before sending that one off to the printer, but now that it's out I'm going to wrap up editing and layout on the exclusive edition and submit that to the printer this week.

That's all for now.

Thanks again for your patience.

Still Waiting on New Proof Copies
almost 4 years ago – Fri, Jul 10, 2020 at 07:17:08 PM

Hello Runewild Backers,

I'm sending out a quick update because it's been a little while. I'm afraid there's not much new to report. I'm still waiting for the updated proof copies of the book to get printed. It's been about 15 business days since I ordered them, and they said it can take up to 24 business days (plus shipping). Last time they had already shipped at this point, but evidently it's taking longer this time.

I'll let you know as soon as I get the books.

Stay safe,

Matthew
