Latest Updates from Our Project:

PDF's are out
over 5 years ago – Sun, Sep 02, 2018 at 01:29:39 AM

Hello White Ashians,

Look for a notification from Backerkit, we've just distributed the PDF for White Ash: Chapter Three!!!

If you pledged at a digital or print catch-up tier, you'll also be notified about PDFs for Chapter One and Two.  If you didn't receive a notification from Backerkit, you can also find the download links directly in your Backerkit account. 

If you have any problems accessing that, hit us up with a message and we'll sort you out.

Going forward...

Next week, we'll get out some more digital content for you -- the Funeral Invite, The SDCC variant cover print, the Lillian's Lament print, etc., basically all of the digital rewards from the campaign with the exception of the Deluxe PDF  (Because those take time to do right). Look for the Deluxe PDF for Chapter Three towards the end of September. 

As for the Print Copies, the SDCC Variants will begin going out in the next couple of weeks, just as soon as the assorted rewards return from the printers.  The rest of the books (with the Funeral cover) should begin shipping out in early October.  We haven't gotten a firm timeline from the printer yet.  But as soon as we do, we'll pass it on to you.

Thanks again for all your support and enthusiasm.  Conor, Fin and I couldn't ask for a better group of fans.

All the very holiday weekend best from White Ash,

Charlie, Conor and Fin.

TWO DAYS LEFT to get your name in Chapter Three
over 5 years ago – Thu, Aug 30, 2018 at 01:08:19 AM

Hello White Ashians,

Thank you all for being so prompt filling out the surveys.  As of tonight, 87% of backers have turned them in.  But we do want to give the last 13% (hope I'm doing the math right there) a chance to turn theirs in if they'd like their names listed in the backer's section of Chapter Three. 

Because on Saturday, we're going to send out the PDFs. Soooooo, if you want your name listed, and you haven't turned your survey in yet, you have till end of day on Friday to get that done.  If for whatever reason you haven't gotten a link from BackerKit yet, reach out to me (Charlie) on Kickstarter.  I'll send you a private message with a direct link. 

IF you can't figure out how to reach out to me on Kickstarter, post a comment below and we'll take care of you. 

Thank you again, we're so excited to get you the books.

Best,

Charlie and the rest of Team Ash (Conor and Fin)

Surveys are OUT
over 5 years ago – Sat, Aug 25, 2018 at 12:36:10 AM

Hello White Ashians,

Check your email, the BackerKit surveys are rolling out. If you don't see a survey in your inbox (or junk mailbox) by tomorrow morning, please get in touch with us and we'll send you a direct link so you can fill out your survey. 

And we'd like you to fill out your survey soon, because the sooner we have those filled out, the sooner we can get you your rewards. Right now the Chapter Three PDFs are ready to be sent, they're only waiting on adding in the backer name section.

To that end, we are instituting a ONE WEEK DEADLINE (till AUGUST 31st),to turn in surveys if you'd like  your name included in the backers' section of the PDF for Chapter Three.* 

After that, we will begin the distribution of the PDFs.  We want to make sure that no one has to wait any longer than the end of August to read the next chapter in the story of White Ash.

Thank you again for all your support.  We'll be back in touch soon with more updates on the production pipeline. 

All the very best,

Charlie, Conor and Fin (AKA Team Ash)

*Just to clarify, if you turn in your survey after August 31st, you will still get all of your other rewards.  The only reward that has the one week time limit on it, is the ability to have your name added to the PDF.  And we will send a reminder :)

Surveys are coming VERY SOON
over 5 years ago – Sat, Aug 25, 2018 at 12:29:34 AM

Hello White Ashians,

Sorry for the delay on the surveys.  We're just finalizing up one last, little step with BackerKit. But they should be on their way either later today or tomorrow morning.  I'll be back with another update as soon as they go out, so you'll know to look for them.

As for the book, we're finalizing things with Kraken Print right now. The files should be off this weekend and we're on track, with expedited shipping, (Thanks stretch goal!) to get you the print copy of the book about a month earlier than the original deadline.

Oh, and one more thing. While we weren't able to get this up on the site before the KS ended, here is Romina Moranelli's final version of the variant cover for Chapter Three.

We thought you might appreciate getting a peek at this gorgeous illustration before we threw the logo on it.  Thanks Romina for joining us in the White Ash universe.

Be in touch really soon,

Charlie and the rest of Team Ash (Conor and Fin) 

THANK YOU!!! This was just…

INCREDIBLE  (In case the gif was confusing and you thought we meant "This was just... a green man screaming angrily).

The Chapter Three Kickstarter blew away any and all expectations Conor, Fin and I had for the campaign and it’s all because of YOU.

You all spread the word, were White Ash evangelists on social media and backed our campaign at a level that was frankly, humbling. Again, thank you.

We are going to do our very best to live up to that lofty responsibility. To that end I will regularly update you as we move along through production. Here’s a quick snapshot of the next couple of weeks.

Week One — Kickstarter collects fees, and backers who may have forgotten that their credit card has expired/was stolen/was maxed out on Fortnite V-Bucks, will be given a chance to update it.

Week Two — We’ll send out our BackerKit surveys. Please fill these out as quickly as possible. We’re looking to do a fast turnaround on White Ash, as we’d like to get your books as soon as possible.

Week Three — Once we have all the surveys back and we have a list of backers names and addressed in hand, we’ll be sending out the PDF’s for Chapters One through Three.

Week Four -- By then we should have a firm shipping schedule from the printer locked down with dates using the expedited shipping processes.  We look forward to sharing more info with you as soon as we have it.

If you have any questions, always feel free to reach out to us here on Kickstarter or find us on the following social networks:

Thank you again, we’re so excited to get you White Ash: Chapter Three and have an opportunity to get you White Ash: Chapter Four sometime this fall…

Be in touch very soon,

Charlie and the rest of Team Ash (Conor and Fin)
