Hi guys! 👋 

I'm happy to announce the Dragon’s Erf series is now available on ALL major and indie online bookstores! 

Along with this, I've created a brand new universal link which gives the reader an option to get the books from their preferred store!

It would greatly help my project if you could please share the link across your social media platforms!

Oh, and by the way, Dragon's Flight: Book 3 audiobook is now in production!

Hi backers! 

I'm so sorry for the long wait. Life and work finds a way to get in the way of passion projects, but rest assured in the very little spare time I have, I'm always doing something for my dad's series - be it small or large. 

Nonetheless there has been motion! 

Books 1 and 2 are now available on Audible (Dragon's Egg and Dragon's Inferno) thanks to you guys! Anyone who wants a free copy in exchnage for an honest review, email me at [email protected]. 

Otherwise you can get Dragon's Egg audiobook here!

Book 3: Dragon's Flight and Book 4: Dragon's Nest will be available by the end of this year! (Fingers crossed!)

Otherwise, my family and I have made the decision to actively seek out a literary agent in order to take our late father's legacy to a whole new level! 

If any of you know or have connections to any literary agents, please share the Dragon's Erf series with them! 

Cheers, Jed

Hi folks! Been a while! But a lot has been achieved and a lot now in the pipeline! 

Highlights:

  • Five brand new gorgeous book covers! And not just any covers. These are beautiful digitally hand-drawn illustrations with custom created fonts. 
  • All of my dad's Dragon's Erf manuscripts were carefully reviewed and went through a thorough re-edit to ensure they're as perfect as possible. This included professional formatting of each manuscript for print and ebook. 
  • Amazon and Facebooks advertisemt campaigns. I won't lie, this, the covers and upcoming audiobooks has been the biggest spend, but really worth it! 
  • Since this Kickstarter was launched there's been a significant increase in sales, orders and page reads! There's a ways to go, but it's a start! 
  • Then finally and what I'm most excited about: the Dragon's Erf series audiobooks! We found whom we think is the best narattor for our dad's stories, the extremely talented, Sam Legg! He's now finished the recording of Dragon's Egg: Book 1 so that will now go into the final review stages and should be available by the end of the month! He will then get going on all three remaining books in audio form! 

Your backing and funds has made all the above possible! On behalf of my family, thank you once again! 

The next step will be to launch another kickstarter some time next year for special edition hardcovers and lots more! 

WATCH THIS SPACE!

Cheers, Jed

Hi all! 

When I first took over my late dad's writing legacy and raised the funds I did through your help (9k final in bank once all fees were paid to backerkit and kickstarter, etc) I genuinely thought I had this...

Unfortunately, I was very naive. I didn't realise the expense it would acrually take - from new sample book covers, the new covers themselves, proofreading, editing, marketing, book ads, website, etc, etc,etc.

I still haven't paid for any audiobook production yet, let alone the extravagant cost it will take to print all four hard covers and shipping them out internationally. 

So why I am I telling you this? Because at this point I need to make a decision and need your help. The question I have for you:

Would you be happy in letting me use the remaining funds to continue in making the books perfect, fees for ghostwriting books 5 and 6, covers for those and all audiobooks, instead of using the remaining funds to print and ship four hardcovers to those in that category? 

I realise this may upset some but I'd rather be frank than try PR any of you. 

I hope you all backed my dad's project because you wanted to see it through to the end.  That's all I want too believe me. 

My goal (and my family's) is to have the currently 4 books perfect in kindle, paperback and hardback. Then finish the Dragon's Erf Series with two more books (5 and 6) which will need to be ghost written. 

Then we want to make audiobooks for all of them. 

For those that backed the most and in the highest reward tier, please feel free to reach out to me directly at [email protected] if you want to discuss this further. 

Otherwise, things are moving forward!

Cheers, Jed
