I haven't tested positive with a home test, but have scheduled my PCR. Last time I got it I also didn't test positive until I got the Urgent Care full test. Apparently some of the newest strains don't show up as often on home tests (source: gf is a 4th year med student).
Someone I went on a work trip with last weekend has tested positive and has the exact same symptoms, so I'm gonna call it and isolate at least until I know for sure.
Still gonna try to get some writing in...

Sorry it's been a minute on chapters guys. The Kickstarter took things over for a good two weeks with prep, and I'm down and out again with some kind of chest thing. Hoping to sleep it off tonight and get some words cranked out Thursday and Friday.
Either way, talk soon all, and thank you everyone whose already backed the Kickstarter!

Just a fun early sneak peek for you guys! Would you guys want to be able to see the full Kickstarter early if we can share it? You won't be able to back, but it'll give you first shot at seeing what we're offering!

Exclusive bonus reward for paid Patrons who back the Kickstarter in December! Art by Tom Jilesen, and yes, I WILL be signing all of them! Also yes again, lol, the CAD-called art is just as crisp as the recalled art, camera just refused to focus.
Gold or silver signatures, what do you think? I'll go with whatever looks better, but if they look the same I'll go with Patron's choice!

Soooo... remember how I said Chapter 2v2 would be last week? Well... my Chapter 3 kinda got folded into my Chapter 2 😅
So yes, this IS Chapter 2v2, but I think you'll be happy with the amount of added material hahaha.
Still needs some smoothing, but I hope you enjoy!

So this was my intended ending point for this chapter, but having reached it it just falls a little short for me. I think I'm going to be combining it with the original concepts for Chapter 3, so you can probably look forward to that soon!
For now, hope you enjoy!

A note that I am vetoing V1 because I like the wrap-around style of the details. Also, the title and author names are the only things that will be in foil, just so you are aware!

Fair warning that there may be a v2.1 coming with Chapter 2 this weekend. I'm not 100% sure I stuck the ending on this new version, and might be doing some important corrections in the last few paragraphs with rereads tomorrow!
Enjoy, though! I like this 'right into it' take a bit better than the last slower 'recap' version.

Saying it allowed to make myself accountable for it! I finally have a better direction then the kinda dumb you guys got with the first version of Chapter 1, so I want to start over with less data dumping/recap! I think it will be much much better!

I'm warning everyone RIGHT NOW that the following contains major potential spoilers for Stormweaver and beyond, so read at your own risk.
None of it as canon YET, but some version of it will eventually be.
I'm not saying what Skybreaker is just yet, but I CAN assure you that it will not slow down Stormweaver work, largely because I'm not writing it ;) This specific rough scene was written by me for anchoring p...

I know it's early, but I'm actually driving to the Adirondacks today to meet with ML Wang and some other Wraithmarked powerhouses! Wanted to get you guys a WIP of the signed postcard that will be the campaign exclusive for paying Patrons! Doing totally original work for you guys for it, so I hope it entices some of you to pick up a hardcover (or two) on the December Kickstarter!...

Again, I am SO sorry for the delay on this bad boy. The launch was more troublesome than expected, and today is the first day I felt I could really let it go without checking numbers and social media every 10min.
Also... I'm not 100% sure about this chapter as the opener just yet but we'll see. I wanted it to be a little bit more of a "recap" chapter for Book 3 so that people didn't have as many complaints about forgetting the events of Book 2, but I'll need to ...

Just fixing some of the colors on Arthus, and then it'll be done! We're thinking another cool playmat, but maybe also character stickers? They're all FULLY rendered, just layered over each other.
Tom Jilisen is fucking amazing! Almost as cool as our own Vinchie!

Hey guys! First of all, I'm SO sorry but I don't know if Chapter 1 will be out today or tomorrow! It was on my docket as the only thing I was doing today, but there has been a critical issue with the Stormweaver 2 launch that I'm scrambling to deal with.
In short: Amazon is refusing to update the ranking on the book correctly. It had almost 6k preorders and several hundre more buys this morning alone with a TON of Kindle Unlimited downloads, but it's still not even in the top 2...

Hey guys! Just a heads up that all text-based Stormweaver 2 content is getting pulled this morning, so if you wanted to download anything please do so NOW! I can't keep it up due to Amazon ToS!
Almost there! Happy reading, and happy early Halloween!
(And yup! Still working on Chapter 1! If it's not up later today I'll double down tomorrow morning and get it for you guys!)

Hey guys! Quick new WIP from Tom Jilesen with more flat colors! Gonna lighted Rei's skin a touch, but otherwise I like the direction!!
Also, I wanted Chapter 1 out this morning, but I just cannot get the engine started without reading more of Book 2, which I am going to spend all day today and tomorrow doing so that I can get the ball rolling Sunday hopefully. Like I said, please be patient with these early chapter rollouts. I got the MP3s about 2 weeks later than they ...

We don't have the pre-launch page up just yet because we're waiting for Book 2 to drop. But if you want to be 100% sure you don't miss it, you can sign up for the Wraithmarked Creative Kickstarter Newsletter, which ONLY sends emails at most twice per campaign (once at launch and once at the 48hr mark!). Once the prelaunch page is up, we'll reveal our Book 2 hardcover design!

I can leak 10min at a time, and want to give everyone a chance to enjoy the scene, so I'll probably toss one up tomorrow for Public Access on Patreon and leave it up over the weekend for all to snag!

Again, sorry for the delay! Landed, napped, then knocked it out.
This is only the tentative Prologue for Book 3 right now. It's a scene I wanted to get in early for sure, and I tend to like making Prologues and Epilogues from a second perspective, so it fits atm. We'll see if it stays around, though, and in what form!

Hey guys! Just a quick apology in advance that while I am going to try to get the promised Prologue to you in the morning like I usually do, I have to make an impromptu 6am flight to NYC for NYCC, get settled there, etc. Sorry, it was not expected, and no the Prologue isn't done 🤣
It WILL drop tomorrow though!
