The Kickstarter is LIVE!
🕑 Added 2025-06-24 10:13:39 +0000 UTCHello one, hello all!
After 5 months of hard work, the BTDEM kickstarter is now live! The only time you'll be able to get a hardback omnibus edition of the complete series!
I tried to go all out on it. Sprayed edges, slipcases, interior artwork, colored ribbons - this is as pretty as I could make it. It's an 8 book omnibus instead of 16 books because it was much, MUCH cheaper that way. Only need to print 8 books! All 16 books - From the first chapter all the way to the big finale - are included.
I just want to reiterate - this is your ONLY chance to get hardback copies. This is your only chance to get this edition. The stress and logistics of all of this have been utterly insane, and I have no desire to go through it a second time. I won't be stocking up a bunch personally, I won't be releasing them on other platforms, there won't be 'from the vault' sales. This is IT.
An entire set of paperbacks on Amazon is $320. The entire omnibus set, done to a much higher quality, is $550 IF you get the earlybird discount! For the next 2-3 days, the entire series is discounted from around $650 to around $550. It's as cheap as I could make it.
It's not just physical copies though! We also have PLUSHIES! Auri and Elaine!

While I've got everyone's attention:
As I've mentioned in a few places here and there, Beneath the Dragoneye Moons is COMPLETE. I'm finishing my last editing polish on it, but I've finished writing the entire series. Books 15 and 16 are up for preorder on Amazon now:
Book 15: https://www.amazon.com/Beneath-Dragoneye-Moons-Rise-Ashes-ebook/dp/B0CZJ93P6V
Book 16: https://www.amazon.com/Beneath-Dragoneye-Moons-Gods-Dragons-ebook/dp/B0FF3MQ8NL
The series is on Kindle Unlimited, and if you're looking to reread from the beginning, you can find it here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DT7G27HH?binding=kindle_edition
I've been asked 'Selkie, what are you doing next?' quite a few times. Answer!
First, I'm taking some time off. I've been doing BTDEM non-stop for half a decade now, I'm exhausted. I need some serious recovery time. It'll be somewhere between a month to six weeks, depending. I do want to keep playing with Elaine and her story. Some epilogue chapters here and there, maybe explore some of her stories untold. I'm thinking a chapter a month right now.
Then, I'm going to go full tilt into Song of the Gift-Giver! I've already written a few chapters and I've got most of my notes done and organized for it! The short version: Selkie writes a magic school! I'll be teasing a few chapters right around the time BTDEM ends before taking a break. I'm doing some neat stuff with epigraphs!
Lastly, I want to thank you all. Your ceaseless support over the years have helped make BTDEM a reality, and have brought Elaine's story to life. From the first day I started posting, all the way until now, your support has made this all happen. It's changed my life, and I'm always grateful to all of you.
The internet is forever, and hopefully Elaine's story will never die on it.
Thank you.
Selkie

I was looking at the Kickstarter a couple days ago and saw there was a tier for all the digital books, but I went to pledge to it yesterday, and it seems to be gone? I haven't been able to find any explanation anywhere.

I gave in and pledged for the full collection plus bookmark. The POT option pushed me over the edge. I was already buying each E-book as it released and seeing how nice these were going to look on the shelf will make them an excellent way to read the story for the third time. I read initially on RR before Patreon, recently read through the E-book versions. Now I can read hardcover sometime down the line for my third time through. This story absolutely hooked me and it's the only patreon story I've subscribed to for more than a couple months besides "He Who Fights With Monsters". But that series got me on the audio books.

Bah, waits this long and then missed the early bird. :(

Only noticed now (since I see the converted Euro value) that the project goal of 16384 fits the story's power of two theme. Nice touch!
