Only A Few Days Left

Hi, Ravenore Fans,

This campaign has definitely had it's ups and downs. We are still sitting strong and we should see some people come in in the last couple of days. If you haven't shared the link, this would be a good time to do so. I think we can hit at least one stretch goal by the end of the campaign. There are still over 600 people following the campaign that will get reminders in the last 48 hours. 

Below is a map of Ravenore.  No one knows what lies in Mythworld through the Stormveil, since the veil is a magical tempest that wipes your memories. When Threa emerges with various wounds, she finds herself in Direlore, which is based on Medieval Europe.  Jarrick is the Prince of Direlore and a secret romance blooms between them.  Spiretop is based on Feudal Japan where the witty Prince Shiro presides. 

Dyonisis is based on Ancient Greece where Prince Zagan hones his muscular form. He may not be the wisest member of Ravenore royalty, but he has a very clear vision of what makes a hero and tries to excel in that area. Vendara, based on Ancient Egypt, is ruled by Queen Khona, who has imparted her lofty demeanor on her daughter Arabella, who simply comes off as arrogant. Lastly there is Nasarein, based on Norse Viking culture, and populated by energy leeching Vampires. King Stroud, and his odd-mannered daughter, Florane preside here among with whistling gusts and frigid climate. 

In the shadows of the realm is Targath, the home of the Iron Witch, her Gral army, and her spy - a creature made of pure shadow. Here she prepares to invade Ravenore and unite the Five Reigns under her sole rule.  

Also check out this book currently on Kickstarter. 

The Clan of Mist. 

(A war is brewing on the horizon; choices will have to be made that will bring unexpected allies together, or tear apart clans forever.

Isolated her whole life in a village of fellow sirens, Thessalia finds her world turned upside down after she sets her eyes upon a tall mysterious male who walks into her life while training for her clan’s tournament that would decide her fate. Kage, a crocodile shifter and lowborn, has been trying to redeem his family's name, to pull them out of the mud. Kage finds his next mission will not only change his life, but impact the lives of those around him.)

Thank you all for continued support and I look forward to hearing your reactions to the first book in the Ravenore series.

Just About Half Way to Goal!
over 1 year ago – Sun, Oct 23, 2022 at 05:59:47 AM

 With only a week into the campaign we are already halfway to the goal.  I'm currently working with several social media influencers, so we should hit goal without any issue. In the meantime, if you could share the campaign, that would be greatly appreciated. I'm really excited about this book and everyone that's read it has asked about the next one. The world of Ravenore is completely immersive and can hold so many stories.

Below is art for Princess Arabella and her kruck, Pharaoh. Princess Arabella was raised to be a strong leader by her mother, Queen Khona of Vendara. The sweeping golden landscape that is Vendara is breathtaking with multiple shrines to the gods, including Anubis, and Osiris. It holds the main meeting place for the monarchs of the Five Reigns, a pyramid that dwarfs all other structures in the capitol city. 

The strength that Khona has instilled with Arabella has made her a bit cruel and she looks down on all people that are not royalty. This puts her at instant odds with Threa when she is brought to train with princes and princesses of the Five Realms as they attempt to fortify against the Iron Witch's imminent invasion.

Keeping plugging away, True Believers and keep your magic strong.

Thank you all so much for your support.
