The Vault of Foreseen Inncentives is opening!
(This is a re-post of the Patreon message. I will be letting people know as well on Saturday when the chapters drop.)
You may be surprised to read this, but the pre-order campaign is still going on. And I am still asking for pre-orders to make the launch of the physical books a success! We are 56 days from the books hitting stores! It's coming at us fast! However, a lot of people have already done a tremendous amount and so I got to thinking.
'Why should I ask when I can give people something instead?' I always wanted to launch a Kickstarter-type project for the physical books. The fact that we partnered with HarperCollins actually changed that plan a lot...until now!
Presenting the Inncentives campaign, or the Vault of Foreseen Inncentives! To everyone who pre-ordered, this is a gift for supporting the story! Claim your books and when we hit milestones, we'll give out rewards! If we hit major milestones, I will offer HUGE incentives like writing a prequel to a popular character...or you can get a bookplate with my signature on it!
That's right, the marketing people bullied me into it. I will sign a few thousand with them literally hovering behind me and handing me more, and never again. So...if you ever wanted my signature, now would be a good moment to put in a claim because that's one of the finite gifts. And believe me, we're only going to do so many thousand of those at most before my hand gives out and I will never sign anything again if I can help it. Even bank checks.
...In all seriousness, though, I hope this makes the pre-order campaign more fun and lets you Patreons claim rewards as a thank-you again for being supporters who make all this happen. Hopefully we hit some of those goals and uh...I don't actually want to hit the biggest goal because it's a huge thing. But I will. Anything for the story, even if I dread it. Here we go!

This was a good push to finally place my pre-order!
How's this work if I bought off amazon
It might be worth adding a link on the main TWI page as well. Plenty of non-patreons who are not up-to-date on the latest chapter might want to participate.
we gotta hit the meet and greet
I generally dislike pre-orders... But I will absolutely be hitting the book store tomorrow.
I can't imagine how many times you had to un-autocorrect "Inncentives" over the past months.
Is the in-person goal something where you’re predicting that you’ll not stay anonymous forever? Hoping that you didn’t feel pressured to do so. I’ve always felt happy knowing that I can support you living the life you choose, and I hope you’re more excited than scared! Though I’ll admit I’d be greatly amused if part of the deal was to sign extensive NDAs.
If they're preselling millions of books (or whatever) for Level 100, I don't think their anonymity is long for this world, anyway.
Done - Yayyy!
Just preordred all four books, annnd submitted! Let's goooo!
Hey how does the counter work. Is it for the first book only? And does the number represent each pre order? Thank you!
Can't upload the receipt... tried with Safari and Chrome.
I pre-ordered all the books for my mom, but I really want the only version of the series I own to be a nice hardback edition
I bought 2 of the first and one copy of the other 3!
Got my wallpaper! It would be nice if they had different file names between the 2 sets. I almost missed downloading properly because I was asked if I wanted to download it again. Easy fix for me (it downloads with a (1) after the file name, but it may confuse some folks.
Submitted mine!
Downloaded my wallpaper today 😍😍😍
