Ultra Rare proof copies of both IRON PRINCE and FIRE AND SONG hardcovers giveaway on Insta! Only 30 of each printed!

Wraithmarked is trying to get off Twitter (cause we think one you let Nazi into a bar, it becomes a Nazi bar), so we're doing a biiiig push towards Instagram this year (even if it's only the lesser of evils).

These proofs are extra cool, cause unlike a lot of our proofs they will actually have some differences to the final print run! We're adding a couple things to the case spine and tweaking some interior stuff, so it will be easy to tell they are unique!

To join, just Share the post linked below and Follow us on Insta, and you're in!

Take it from an old woman who is incredibly intelligent. Exactly as your book shows Central versus Mind, the world today is incredibly more divided with hidden agendas and people doing things with their power that don't serve all people. Social helplessness seemed to come about when Facebook and Google turned evil for profit, and foreign countries on social media used tech to divide people even more. Your values are your values, and I commend you for having the integrity to fight what you consider evil. However, even evil as you show in your stories is evil only in context. Yes, dictator type personnas are a danger some times, but are actually good or necessary in others. Experience, education, maturity, intelligence, compassion, understanding change your views as lies and manipulation get revealed. If we want a better world for everyone not based on money, then we actually have to BUILD a world together with mutual agreement on what we want to see in society and how to get there. The fight is not the same in every country, because we've been raised with different values. I would love to see a social media where we don't cancel each other. That means being able to dialogue with people who don't agree with you in order to agree to disagree in the end. I see so much trauma and illness in mind and body in America today that we need to get healed before we can even discuss things as rational adults. I would love to hear suggestion from the younger crowds as to how we can bring about these changes. I love your Stormweaver story precisely because it reflects factes of all the human experience right now. But your trauma is different from my trauma. I grew up in California, and until recently I felt that we were leaders in tolerance, compassion, and understanding. But now I only see the same autocratic behavior (opposite of tolerance, compassion and understanding) that the right used to do. I have been traumatized by a wholly untrue narrative regarding illness, exposure, and cures. My point is trauma can come from either side, so neither is worthy of defence. We are down to only selecting actions we approve of or don't approve of based on our values. There is no right or left.

i am so cunfused who is a nazi? or is this dem vrs rep?

Tr Da

I’m genuinely confused. What did Musk actually do that’s so bad? (Choosing a political side doesn’t count) If he was actually trying to do a Nazi salute, already in front of the world like that why wouldn’t he just back it up? I know I’ve made mistakes that can be misinterpreted, so until he says, “yes I’m a nazi” I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt like I would hope others would give me. This whole, “anyone who supports the other side is evil” thing in American politics needs to stop. We are all Americans, but we won’t be if everyone keeps going down this road at full speed.

David Bean

Well, you know, if I could see to read the hard covers. I would buy them. Lol :-) since I can’t, I’ll just stick with the audio. Lol.

Tim Kilgore

I subbed to support a book series I enjoyed, not to get involved in political and/or social media drama. I don't even know enough about whatever the post was about to have a side, I just thought the nazi joke was in poor taste and all I did was state that, and also that people use certain words to get a response nazi being one of them. I wouldn't know at this point because I don't know you, nor would I want anyone to "shut up and dance monkey" as I said I stated an opinion you stated confusion and told me to work on myself. Goodbye.

osullytony

Funny how many people are on you about the Nazi thing considering how Hitler dismantled the German democracy and made it a dictatorship ship. Of course Hitler did it faster

Maria Klein

Wow! Looks like you got some push back from the tin whistle crowd. First off I agree with you and your way of demonstrating your views. I don't get why they don't see is that if nobody stands up to nazism, they become like a bedbug infestation. You don't want one of those.

Russell Stephenson

I just wanted the option of being entered by posting here since I barely do the social media thing. No worries good luck to whoever wins the awesomeness!

George Van Buren

bud... once again, if you think "fuck nazis" is a political statement, you've got some work to do on yourself. you should know at this point that "shut up and dance monkey" does not work on me.

Wraithmarked Creative

oh we're definitely on there, not to worry! just finding it very hard to get traction

Wraithmarked Creative

I read for enjoyment not politics. Do what you want, and so will I. And I am out.

Me

You're the one who needs to get a grip on reality man. What you're suggesting is that we wait until something like genocide actually starts to happen before we start calling fowl. It's literally exactly the mentality that allowed the Nazis to rise to power. The world saw problematic things, but didn't acknowledge it until it was too late. You are repeating conservative talking points without stopping and thinking about what that *actually* means. We are seeing a platform actively remove individuals voicing dissent. We are seeing the same platform elevating hate speech under the false premise that it is free speech. Despite what the internet wants to tell you, they are two different things. We are saying rights being stripped from individuals, and multiple races losing opportunities but statistically have very little chance of getting when competing against white applicants of equal qualification without those protections. How much farther do things have to go before you start wondering if you're going to end up on the wrong side of history? Your delusional stance that things aren't going in a concerning way is sickening. Your delusionist stance that individuals with a platform should shut up and not try to improve things for other people is sickening. I genuinely hope a time comes when you look back on this time in your life and wonder what the fuck were you thinking.

Wraithmarked Creative

Get real man, you are equivocating [people you don't like or agree with to actual fucking Nazis. When they start throwing people into ovens or gassing them, then you can call them Nazis. Until then, you are just degrading the actual meaning of the word and giving a huge slap in the face to the people and families who were hurt by ACTUAL Nazis. And this is all beside the point. No one is here for your political insights. It's opinions and assholes Bryce. Please, for the love of god, separate church and state.

Iaxys

I really wish, but unfortunately the nature of business requires a platform right now. At least our business 😔

Wraithmarked Creative

Yep, and we're on there as well, not to worry! It's just very hard to get growth traction on there.

Wraithmarked Creative

"Nazis are bad" should neither be divisive nor political. If you think it is either, the problem is you. EDIT: spelling

Wraithmarked Creative

Or, how about we leave divisive political nonsense and overstated rhetoric at the door? Thanks.

Iaxys

Jordan that response wasn't to you. It was to osullytony. Unfortunately, Patreon does not do a good job of threading replies. It's the reason I encourage meaningful conversation to move to Reddit.

Wraithmarked Creative

Wow. If that's what you got from what I said then so be it. Literally read what I said in the second reply and I straight up say I'm against it. All I was saying was that you could have said "we are trying to get more people on our Instagram!" Or some shit. I'm done replying to this thread as I feel I've beat a dead horse with trying to get what I was saying out there. All I wanted to state was that I'm here for one of my favorite fantasy series not Nazis on Twitter.

Jordan Stone

FYI Wraithmarked Creative - I know you didnt ask for my approval - none the less, I want you to know I fully agree with, support and endorse these actions. We need to take a stand against what is going on in the world where we can.

Scott

We did it people! We made " I hate Nazis" a political opinion! The fact that you're unable to understand how insane thinking not wanting Nazis and white supremacists is about politics is incredibly concerning. Just pause and think about that. I say I don't want Nazis to have power, and you tell me not to get political. Just think about that.

Wraithmarked Creative

The bartender who lets the Nazis in does not have to be a Nazi. But it's still a Nazi bar. When literal Nazis celebrate you and share you, you don't have to actually BE a Nazi for me to want. Nothing to do with you.

Wraithmarked Creative

More to your point I build my own computer built with parts that don't come from countries that abuse thier work force but cloths made in America buy tools made in America and do anything and everything I can to support those who take care of thier people. People throw around the word nazi like mad these days and most don't have a clue what that actually means. Things like eugenics and racial destruction through things like forced sterilization up too and including mass gas chambers and mass graves. You could have simply said we're moving away from Twitter and to insta and been done, but when your called out for the fact your switching to arguably the more problematic platform the one for things like pedophilia, terrorism, and the suppression of free speach by the party that by the way created planned parenthood as a means of using it to support the destruction of undesirable from the country, fought to keep slavery, and even now thinks that minorities are so stupid they can't choose for themselves what is and isn't raceisim undermines everything your doing. Make a choice stick with it, I don't care what you use. What I don't need or want is toxic political I Ed bs comming from someone whose job is to bring me great fantasy literature not try to tell me about his opinion on something I don't want and didn't ask for. If you wanted to live a life where your making the best desisions for YOU and avoid things you dislike saying well everything is shit so I do my best, when it's pantintly false AND Then try to be high and mighty about it when it's obvious you don't have to buy sweat shop pants and apple made bs that is built on slave labor just shows how hipocritical you are. The nice thing about America is you get to do that, because people have fought and died to make sure you can spout stupid crap. The other nice thing is I likewise don't have to fund it. Good day to you.

Michael Wellman

Might I suggest that you check out bluesky as well.

Jason

I don't do any social media so I can't win a limited book, and I don't do politics it's just another type of bs imo. I came for Iron Prince not to pick a side when both sides are evil, and throwing around trigger words like nazi with silly statements like one nazi in a bar makes it a nazi bar is ridiculous.

osullytony

He's saying we came here for Iron Prince not political opinions.

osullytony

new chapter?

Andrey Gerasimenko

The first amendment is there to protect viewpoints you disagree with not the ones you do. I don't agree with teenage angst room temperature IQ Nazi wannabes but I do think it's important for people to be able to express their viewpoints in an open forum. You also have the ability to tell them they're an idiot.

Jordan Stone

You think that having unfettered Nazis saying Nazi shit on a platform isn't a problem? Because if someone feels that it is, the best way to send a message of disapproval is to move off the platform loudly and openly.

Lord Humongous the ayotolla of rock and rolla

Bluesky is still a thing.

Lord Humongous the ayotolla of rock and rolla

I enjoy this series heavily but engaging in a political reasoning instead of just saying that we are switching and boarding the orange man bad and Nazi train has made me consider canceling this subscription. Everyone is free to believe whatever they want but one thing I can't stand is my fantasy series that I use to help me forget about the real world even for a few minutes engaging in a political reason for switching from one thing to another. I'll purchase the books when they come out but I don't like your reasoning for this.

Jordan Stone

Maybe my point was too convoluted but what I’m trying to say is Elon is an autistic jerk wad and way too many people idolize him. But he isn’t a nazi and throwing around that label cheapens the deaths of millions of people who died at the hands of Nazis and the sacrifice of an entire generation to stop the Nazis

jacob shlagel

Well, I'm saving for a baby but I ended a lot of my subs to save money. Yours just got renewed.

Baconater

So what if you don't do either 🤔, No Twitter no Insta

George Van Buren

I totally get wanting to step away from X with all the noise there lately. I just hope that this space can stay a haven from all that and stick to the appreciation of Bryce's amazing work.

Todd Smith

dude there has to be a line somewhere, and we can only do the best we can. I'm responding to this from a PC made in a east asian factory that at best absuses the vulnerable, at worst works of modern slave labor. afterwards I'm going to put pants that were made in a sweatshop that pays children pennies and makes them work 16hrs a day, and get in a car made in another factory that probably replaced its jobs with robots, making multiple people homeless. in this modern world cannot fight every fight without going off the grid (and likely trespassing to do so), and I can only do the best I can while keeping my business and livelihood alive. so I would appreciate it if you didn't try to shame people for trying to make improvements with cries of "NOT GOOD ENOUGH", because the only think you do is damage your own movement and make people less likely to listen to you later.

Wraithmarked Creative

done ☺️ these would be so cool to add to the shelf 🤩 -j💜💛🤍

Brandon and Jess Horton

Yea Elon bad lol let’s use the app that *checks notes* - connects a vast network of pedophiles. So you left the nazi bar for the pedo bar? They all suck social media is all bad but taking a stance against one in favor of another is kinda giving tacit approval of the bad that the other does.

jacob shlagel

Done 🤞🤞

Gotssclh Etrama

we're also on Bluesky, not to worry, but Insta just has significantly more traction with the content we can easily create (pretty books, pretty art, etc). We've done giveaway and BS to try and get the ball rolling there too but... very little dice, sadly. -Bryce

Wraithmarked Creative

Everyone i know that left Twitter went to bluesky instead, yeah

Joshua Knight

Might be due to not many knowing about it. I didn’t even know Bluesky was a thing until this comment.

Sugoi

Done!

Maria Klein

Agree, Bluesky for the win.

Kit Snyder

Why not Bluesky? Seems same post style of Twitter and it isn’t Musk or Zuckerberg controlled?

WeylandsWings

Man that sucks. I got rid of all social media.
