Greetings, Readers!

We are excited to announce that Fragments, our first entry of The Chimera Snare Series, is coming soon to Kickstarter. With this campaign, we aim to reflect the same kind of attention we put into our story into our presentation and release a quality product that you will enjoy and appreciate for many years to come. With PrintNinja at the helm for production, rest assured you will find that both the paperback and hardcover editions of Fragments will be of the utmost quality. Heavyweight stock will be utilized for the paperback cover, while tough, elegantly textured faux leather will be used for the hardcover, along with sleek, blacked-out edges.

We want to make sure that our Backers know how grateful we are that you helped bring this prokect to life. Eached named backer will receive a 'thank you' in out book's credits. After all, we couldn't have done this without you!

The Importance of Small Businesses

We are passionate about supporting small businesses and believe in the collaborative nature of bringing something truly unique into fruition - that is essentially how both The Chimera Snare series and Clay Urn Publishing came to be. For this reason, we have partnered with the following small businesses to generate some of the specialty offerings that we are including in select bundles for this campaign:

Firelight Fables Candle Co.

From the lush, beautiful regions of Oregon, Firelight Fables Candle Co. shares our affinity for fantasy storytelling and creates top-tier custom candles with an unmatched level of care and attention to detail. Kasey has honored us with a custom "Delavine Crystal" scented candle made from coconut-apricot wax for a clean burn. Perfect for creating the appropriate ambiance to transport you to a magical world.

Mystical Outpost

Based in Rochester, IN, Mystical Outpost offers a plethora of high-quality products ranging from hand-dipped incense and custom fragrances to hand-made candles and jewelry. On offer in this campaign is a pack of twenty-five incense sticks with a custom unique scent.

Fredricksburg Essentials

Straight out of the heart of Texas Hill Country, Fredricksburg Essentials specializes in producing premium bath products made with all-natural ingredients. They have created a custom luxurious soap bar for us emblazoned with our Triple Moon glyph - exclusive to this campaign.

 

International Reach

Naturally, we want this book to land in as many hands as possible. Thus, we aim to keep the pricing for international shipping as reasonable as possible. For that reason, each of our reward packages will be shipped with an appropriate flat-rate for every country across the globe.

 

A Big Thank You In Advance

Simply saying that your support means the world to us barely begins to convey the level of appreciation for our backers. You're effectively taking part in breathing life into the dream that started this all for Shannon many years ago and helping the two of us tell the fully realized story that The Chimera Snare: Fragments was meant to be.

With the success of this campaign, not only will we unleash this story of adventure, magic, and suspense unto the world, but this will further propel us into releasing the forthcoming volumes that encompass this epic of otherworldly proportions.

This is only the beginning...

 

With thanks and appreciation,

S&E Black
