Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
The Kickstarter for the fifth Gryphon Generation Book "Chimera Affliction" just started! I became a huge fan of this series over the last few months and can't recommend it enough! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/944781232/chimera-affliction-book-5-of-the-gryphon-generation

@avis_jay Oh! That one is by Alex, not me =) I was just excited for it. I don't think Alex is on Mastodon? He's Reinbourne most places, though!

Funnily enough, because Alex thanks me in the dedication of the first book, I did actually have someone ask me to sign a copy of The Gryphon Generation once. I did it =) But also gave it to Alex to sign, too!

It was the unrated edition, so I drew little scream gryphons at the start of all the spicy stuff, which he found amusing.

@kvalenagle @avis_jay wait what there is an unrated version of the books ?????? I guess i need to find it and re read all the book aaaaaaaaaaa

@Nulhomme @kvalenagle Yea, but only for the first book so far. To get it you can order it from the official site and dm rein on blue sky.

@avis_jay @kvalenagle i only see option for softcover and hardcover on the official website but no ebook option :(

I got a hardcover from kickstarter to celebrate the release of the 5 edition but ebook version are easier for me to get to not have to pay for import tax that are very high 😅

@Nulhomme @kvalenagle Maybe write them a dm and ask if there is an option to get an ebook of the "Directors Cut".

@avis_jay @kvalenagle do they use the fedi <-> blusky bridge because i don't use blusky 😅 ?

@avis_jay @kvalenagle (it could be a good way of promoting the kickstarter too would love to get it there since they already offer ebook)

@Nulhomme @avis_jay I don't think they use the bridge, but they are on Telegram, if that helps?

Feels weird being the person who revealed the secret unrated cut of Gryphon Generation to someone =] I'd never seen one before I was asked to sign that one. I was too chicken to actually read the extra chapters.

@kvalenagle @Nulhomme I have the special version and the extra chapters are pretty fun. Like, Yea, it's "smutt", but very well written.

@avis_jay @kvalenagle Unfortunately i don't use telegram too 😅 I will add a comment on the kickstarter maybe that will work and i'll be able to add it to my options :p

@Nulhomme @avis_jay I think Kickstarter lets you private message creators =)

I always back Joshua Essoe's books on editing (he worked on Song of the Summer King, Griffin Ranger, Canadian Werewolf, and a bunch of other books I've read), but I always forget to fill out his backer surveys so he ends up messaging me. So I think it works both ways.

@avis_jay @kvalenagle https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/944781232/chimera-affliction-book-5-of-the-gryphon-generation/comments i did it there as a first attempt to have it added to the kickstarted could convince people to spend a little more on the project 😏
