Tuukula!

by Leave a Comment

Well, this is crazy! You might have noticed, I’ve got a Kickstarter Campaign running at the moment. No spoilers, but magic is definitely involved! The campaign has stretch goals, and if it funds all backers at the basic level get free books. At the very highest level, all backers at the basic level will get a free copy of the fictional biography Tuukula: A Shaman’s Life.

Curious? Want to know how you can get Tuukula? Feel free to check out the campaign.

Keep an eye on the main page for updates on the campaign progress!

Join the SRU!

I’ve been busy with schoolwork and needed to give Petra’s Kickstarter Campaign some TLC. 🙂 I needed more fun rewards (and to get rid of some of the stranger ones!). So I’ve added some SRU stories, and if you want to get in on the action (i.e. BE a character) this is your chance. Here’s the blurb from the campaign:

Ever wanted to try out for the Greenland Special Response Unit? Or maybe just gossip with Constable Atii Napa? Admire Sergeant Gaba Alatak’s manscaping? Take a spin on the winter roads with Petra’s nemesis: Sergeant ‘Jowls’ Duneq? Or unwind after a mission on the dance floor of Nuuk’s insanely popular nightclub: Mattak?

Now’s your chance to get in on the action with these cheaper and shorter short stories (2,500 words/10 paperback pages) featuring YOU alongside the SRU!

The covers will be revealed later and the stories will be delivered in December. Christmas gift, maybe? 😉

If you have questions, be sure to drop me a line, or use the comments below. But be sure to check out the campaign if you think this sounds like fun!

Teaser: Piitalaat!

by 1 Comment

Yep, this is happening! Finally, Petra’s backstory in one – if I may say so myself – gorgeous homage to everything I love about Greenland, about Piitalaat, and the stories I’ve been telling these past few years.

I’ve always known where Petra came from, but I’ve never explored it in a story, beyond the fact she lost her parents when she was tiny. It’s time to reveal what actually happened, and then what happened to Petra, and how it defined her.

So Piitalaat will be a true origin story, for adult readers, but with a cute cover that is 100% Petra! I’m doing a Kickstarter for Piitalaat together with Crocodile Beat. Here’s the link.

So, while I catch my breath, please check out the Kickstarter and share it with… Oh, I don’t know, how about the world? 😉

Petra coming to a Kickstarter near you!

This is it! Launching! I’ve hinted at a Maratse Kickstarter campaign, but as so often happens at the moment, Petra gets her way! So the Maratse Kickstarter will come later, making way for Petra, or should I say Piitalaat? 🙂

Why Kickstarter? Because it’s fun! And, because Brandon Sanderson just blew the roof off the potential for a Kickstarter campaign with his mega-massive-million dollar book campaign. Yes, I backed it. 😉 I mean, four Brandon Sanderson novels? I had too.

My own goals are somewhat more modest. But, hopefully, no less exciting. I mean, I’m excited about Crocodile Beat (loving the story) and equally excited about… wait for it… Piitalaat – Petra’s origin story! Here’s a teaser image:

Finally, this Christmas, readers can find out just what happened to Petra’s parents, and walk alongside Petra through the rough and formative years of her youth. Ever wondered why she’s so curious and impulsive? Piitalaat will explain it all while taking the reader on a fun and fraught adventure in Greenland.

Like my previous successful Kickstarter, there are stretch rewards. But I’m saying nothing, not a thing about them until launch… in 2 days! 🙂

Crocodile Beat is currently available for pre-order, and you might have pre-ordered it already. Thank you! However, this Kickstarter allows you to choose one or both books, plus other crazy rewards. So please check it out to see what’s available.

Right… must sleep… more later.
