I am very, very pleased to announce that the final revisions to the book have been approved, which means we're ready to send out PDFs! Hooray!
So, let's talk about what's coming up:
- Today, tomorrow, and Thursday you have a little time to look over the BackerKit add-ons to see if there's anything you want to add to your order.
- Friday evening (8/20), all orders will be locked and the BackerKit preorder store will close.
- Saturday, BackerKit will charge cards. (This is only for stuff that's been ordered since the end of the Kickstarter. So if you already paid through Kickstarter and haven't added anything through BackerKit, your card will not be charged.)
- Monday, PDFs will go out to backers.
For those of you who have ordered physical books, those will take a bit longer to arrive. First we have to get proofs of the physical books and see if there are any errors. If there are, we will need to get the printer to correct the errors and then order proofs again. From what I understand, this process can take a couple of months. But the good news is that everyone who ordered a physical book will also get a PDF to peruse while they wait for the dead tree version.
Anyhow... Thank you all for your patience and your support. I am so happy to finally be able to share this book with you all.
Cheers,
JDP

Happy Monday, everybody!
I have big news to report. All required edits are complete and the (432 pp.) manuscript has been submitted for final approvals. I'll let you know as soon as I hear anything, but we could be sending out PDFs very, very soon.
Thank you all!

Making the changes from the license holder review took me a bit longer than I thought, but I am completing the very last change, which is an index of the book. The other changes have already been through layout, and there's no pictures or anything fancy to lay out in the index, so hopefully it won't take too long. Thank you, everyone!

Super quick update. I'm working on changes from the license holder review. Time has been very scarce, so things are going slowly, but they are moving forward. Hopefully I will have a bigger, newsier update for you in the next week or two. But we are right at the finish line.
Book complete and out for review

This afternoon I sent the Micronomicon to the license holder for review. Laid out, fully illustrated, and complete with table of contents, etc., it is 420 pages and absolutely packed to the gills with fantasy gaming goodness. Man, I can't wait for you all to get your hands on this book!
The review and approval process takes a few weeks, and maybe more if there are a lot of changes to make, so I don't know exactly when I'll be sending out the first wave of backer rewards. But I do know we are getting very close.
So close in fact that we are almost ready to lock orders and close the backerkit shop. (Probably by April 20-25.) I'll be sending out an update about that next week, along with some reminders about the cool stuff you can pick up there.
In the meanwhile, thank you all for your support, and for your patience. I hope it will not be needed much longer.

PS - If you want a sneak peek at the Micronomicon spell card deck, we still have room on the playtest Discord server. Just holler.
