Unbound Kickstarter – 97% Funded in Just 5 Days! 🖤

I can hardly believe I’m writing this.

The UNBOUND: Forbidden Archive Edition Kickstarter is now 97% funded in just 5 days.

That means we are only TWO backers away from fully funding the printing of the Forbidden Archive Deluxe Hardcover Edition.

Two.

When I launched this campaign, I honestly didn’t know what to expect. This is my first Kickstarter, and seeing so many readers come together to support this story has been incredible.

Thank you for every pledge, every share, every comment, and every word of encouragement. You have helped bring this project so much closer to reality.

Stretch Goals Have Been Updated

Now that we’re approaching our funding goal, I’ve updated the stretch goals to focus on creating the most beautiful edition possible.

And yes…

I couldn’t hold back on all the bling. 😅

This book deserves it.

You deserve it.

If we’re going to create a collector edition, let’s create a collector edition.

The archive has revealed another secret.

At $7,000, all physical tiers will receive The Oracle’s Verses, a beautifully designed poetry booklet featuring Clea’s writings, recovered verses, and selections from Unbound.

Presented as a recovered artifact from the Forbidden Archive, this exclusive booklet offers readers an intimate glimpse into the poetry, emotions, and history woven throughout the story.

Thank You

I love this story.

I love Clea and Gabriel.

I love the poetry woven throughout the book.

I love creating these special editions and dreaming up all the little details that make them feel like artifacts from the world itself.

Most of all, I love that all of you are joining me on this journey.
