reached
Mobile office + writing on the go!
I walk to the library often, and I'd love to buy one of those little rolly-bags to pack my laptop, a portable desk, and physical writing supplies in. That way, I can write from practically anywhere!
Social media advertising
I'd love to give the Trilogies project a marketing boost with some paid social media & online advertising! A wider reach = more people = more support!
Complete logo + branding package for Trilogies project
As this is a lifelong movement, I want our presence to stand out and kick ass. At this level, I can hire my awesome artist to do a complete branding package for us. Logo and website mural included!
Writing speed upgrade
Aside from my novel writing, I work, am enrolled in school, and I've also a lil' hellion on my hip who loves to be loved. So during the day I have to guerrilla-attack my writing. Most of my writing gets done at night which means near-zero sleep. At this level, I can grab an awesome babysitter so that I can write at night AND during the day!
Gorgeous Trilogies website and online community
We can create a privately-hosted website, dedicated blog, bookstore, newsletter, community forum, a Patrons-corner, and social media outlets for the Trilogies Project
Blog tours, social media blasts, traditional media, and more
We can rocket-boost marketing for the Trilogies by purchasing blog tours, doing more guest posts, acquiring radio, TV, and newspaper coverage, getting *AUTHENTIC* advance reader reviews, and by scoring even MORE social media blasts, paid advertising, promotions, and inclusion on targeted newsletter lists.
Bottomless ebooks for Patrons
All Patrons will receive FREE ebook copies of each Trilogie!
Kick ass concept art, posters, and look books
We can finally score some awesome concept art from my amazing artists, Nathan Crandall and Eric Quigley, that'll jazz up our books and website ten-fold. Check out the art done for my Books of Ezekiel series: Kick Ass Concept Art for The Books of Ezekiel Series
Audiobooks for each Trilogie
We'll be able to hire the perfect actors to create audiobooks for each Trilogie project.
Bottomless ebooks + audiobooks for all Patrons
All Patrons will automatically receive FREE ebook and audiobook copies of each Trilogie!
Faster deliverables: GUARANTEED 6-month turnaround for each Trilogie project
We'll be able to write, edit, design, publish, and market Patreon-supported Trilogies on a full-time & overtime basis (approx. 50-60 hours a week). Which means shorter production time, faster turnaround, and quicker deliverables in ebook, paperback, hardcover, and audiobook formats.
The Patron Pitch Pavilion
We can finally start taking YOUR story and novel ideas and turning them into the kick ass Trilogies you've always wanted to see
Conventions, trade shows, book fairs, and book tours
We can start taking the Trilogies on tour at the most major conventions, festivals, fairs, and trade shows. New York Comic Con, WisCon, WorldCon, San Diego Comic Con, WisCon, the Book Expo of America, and many more shows are on the tour list!
Writer team recruitment + genre expansion + format expansion
We'll be able to recruit a diverse and creatively-experienced writer team to produce more Trilogies more quickly. These authors will bring their expertise in other sci-fi, fantasy, and horror sub-genres like cyberpunk, fae, paranormal romance, epic fantasy, soul n' sword, paranormal mystery, and way more. We'll also able to expand from the trilogy format to include ongoing serialized novels and full novel series
Library and school distribution
We’ll be able to start seeking and securing distribution in schools and libraries (especially ones near YOU) so that youths and adults from diverse backgrounds can have easier access to the works that tell THEIR stories!
About
Dystopian Sci-fi, Sci-fi Thriller, & Urban Fantasy Novelist. Screenwriter. Game Writer & Narrative Designer. Film Producer. Globetrotter. Action (Movie) Junkie. Rebel Ragdoll.
A shameless nerd and bookworm since the age of five, I'm the author of THE GIVEN and THE TAKEN, the first two installments in The Books of Ezekiel, a dystopian-urban fantasy decalogy. And many more titles and franchises forthcoming, is the plan!
I was an Air Force BRAT born in Bitburg Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany and came to the States at the age of one. I bounced around a lot, but finally settled in Los Angeles, where I could at last deal with my addictions to writing, creative entrepreneurship, motorcycles, and traveling. Now, armed with a mound of animal crackers and gallons of Coca-Cola, I take on the fiction writing trinity (novel writing, screenwriting, and game writing) in a fight to the death!
Current projects in development include: the second, five-volume mega-novel in the Books of Ezekiel series, the first novel in a middle grade SFF detective series, the first novel in a New Adult sci-fi thriller series, development of my first sci-fi thriller film, the growth of my multimedia production house, Rebel Ragdoll, and of course THE TRANSCENDENT TRILOGIES PROJECT!
