Over the Top!
We've crossed the rubicon . . . or something. The Kickstarter funding goal has been reached and surpassed. Many thanks to all of you who backed the project (twice!), and here's hoping a few stragglers will find their way to Kickstarter in the next 6 days. Every dollar helps make for a better physical book and a more ambitious promotional trip. Bring in your pets. Lock your doors. There's no telling where I might go.
Combine Kickstarter with the current Jerusalem Gap craziness -- 22,000 copies downloaded since noon -- and it has been quite a day (thanks Bookbub, and make that 27,000). I've always thought world domination a fond dream, but today I can very nearly taste it.
Not really. It's been fun though, and tomorrow I will rise early and get back to work on your book.
Thank you all for your enthusiastic support. It means quite a lot to me.

Congratulations to you and all who pledged. Perhaps the old saying "less is more" is true regarding Kickstarter and your ebook downloads. Hopefully this will increase the number of fans for your books preferably ones willing to pay for the next download. Godspeed in your writing and thanks for giving it another chance.

That's super news--congratulations! Really looking forward to reading the book in a few months.
We should put it to a vote. How many think that TRP should be allowed to spend every dollar over the tipping point on beer?

Only if it's good beer; no Meisterbrau or 'Gansett or some such swill.
With all the talk about Jerusalem Gap on Goodreads and Bookbub I got my copy out and reread it today. I'd forgotten how emotional the ending was. If the 22,000 plus people that downloaded it read the book there will be a lot of tears shed. As for the beer vote, since Mr. Pearson is writing a novel set in the Blue Ridge mountains he can always buy the backwoods favorite Pabst Blue Ribbon for inspiration.
