My fellow Trekker fans, a LOT of excitment is happening in these days in the world of Mercy St. Clair! We have Emerald City Comic Con just around the corner! But that’s only the second biggest event in Trekker land this week! The TrekkerKickstarter took of like CRAZY upon its launch last Tuesday, and we hit our initial funding goal within a mere 36 hours! You folks are simply amazing! That guaranteed right out of the gate that TREKKER: CHAPELTOWN will be in print and on its way to all faithful Kickstarter backers by THIS SUMMER! You can click on the link right here: TREKKERKICKSTARTER.COM to join the posse for Chapeltown. And it turns out that this horse was just beginning to gallop:

In just the first week, we’ve blown past our first Stretch Goal, which allows us to add the complete, 24-page crime-noir tale The Volstock Payoff to the book! That makes CHAPELTOWN an even bigger and better volume! And just as importantly, as the energy and the word about TREKKER keeps spreading with the success of the Kickstarter, we will be adding to the number of readers that will join us on this trail. And that simply makes it easier for me to produce More Trekker More Often. Needless to say, I’m thrilled and excited to see how it’s going!

And if you want to join in, now’s the perfect time to SADDLE UP! You can get the book mailed right to you, hot off the press, as well as any rewards that might suit your fancy. And, with another good bump, we’ll be adding even more fancy touches to the book! Next goal:

The cover Spot Varnish will make the book look and feel exactly like what it is: a continuation of Mercy’s story, with just a touch “extra”– the new energy and focus the series is gaining by turning to Kickstarter, and thus directly to YOU, the readers who will enjoy this book the most, to bring it to print. It feels like the PERFECT way to mark this turning point in the series! PLUS, I’m throwing in DIGITAL PDF’s of both RITES OF PASSAGE and CHAPELTOWN, free for anyone who supports at the DOUBLE SHOT (ie, getting both books in printed format) and above backer levels.

With all that excitement going on, I feel like CELEBRATING! And I don’t know a bigger or better party for us comics lovers than the epic Emerald City Comic Con! I’ll be there all weekend, from Thursday through Sunday: MARCH 1-4, at ARTIST ALLEY Table H-9! If you’re there, be sure to stop by, say hi, and join the trail to CHAPELTOWN! In fact, if you join the Kickstarter during the  show, or can convince me you’re already a backer, I’ll have a special, ECCC-Exclusive thank you gift for ya: this nifty, lights-up-when-you-click-it TREKKER PEN!

Now how’s that for a bright idea, partners? See you down the trail–
