Obviously, I owe a huge thank you to all my family, friends, and fans who supported me. I honestly had no idea who this campaign would go. I hoped my readers would be willing to step outside their normal comfort zone, but to actually see how many people were willing to take a gamble on <a href=\"http:\/\/drewkarpyshyn.com\/c\/?page_id=7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Time Kings of Las Vegas <\/a>was both humbling and inspiring&#8230; and exhausting!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve been swept up in a whirlwind of activity since my last post. In addition to launching the Kickstarter, I also hosted an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/Fantasy\/comments\/vxd8ea\/hello_reddit_im_drew_karpyshyn_scifi_and_fantasy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">AMA on Reddit<\/a>. Check it out if you want to see my answers to questions on a range of topics from Mass Effect, to Star Wars, to what tacos I prefer in my Torchy&#8217;s Tacos orders!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve also been promoting Time Kings across social media. I&#8217;ve been very active on Twitter and in several Facebook Groups, and I&#8217;ll be doing a podcast over at <a href=\"https:\/\/rulethegalaxy.podbean.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rule the Galax<\/a>y next week. We&#8217;re recording Wednesday night, and I think they plan to have it up by Thursday!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So much has happened in only seven days, but there&#8217;s still so much more to go! The Kickstarter is running until August 7, so there&#8217;s still time to pledge your support! If you&#8217;re not sure if Time Kings is the right kind of book for you, you can check out the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/drewkarpyshyn.com\/c\/?page_id=1114(opens%20in%20a%20new%20tab\" target=\"_blank\">prologue and first chapter<\/a> before you make your decision!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And in case you were wondering, the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/drewkarpyshyn\/time-kings-of-las-vegas\" target=\"_blank\">Kickstarter<\/a> has plenty of bonus rewards up for grabs when you pledge. In addition to getting a copy of Time Kings, you can also get an autographed copy of my Revan novel. Or the Darth Bane trilogy. Or my Chaos Born books, or the Mass Effect novels&#8230; hell, just get the Super Fan package and scoop up autographed copies of the whole bunch &#8211; 13 books in total!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And if you&#8217;re looking for something really special, you could sign up for the Vegas VIP package &#8211; in addition to everything in the Super Fan package, you also get an exclusive meet and greet with me at one of Vegas&#8217;s finest restaurants. And I&#8217;ll even pay for dinner!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, if you&#8217;ve already pledged for the Kickstarter, THANK YOU! And if you haven&#8217;t, what the hell are you waiting for?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/drewkarpyshyn\/time-kings-of-las-vegas\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"723\" src=\"http:\/\/drewkarpyshyn.com\/c\/wp-content\/uploads\/Time-Kings-Cover-Front-Back.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1155\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s been one week since I launched the Kickstarter for Time Kings of Las Vegas, and I&#8217;m already fully funded!
