Kickstarter UPDATE: Where’s the $ going? Plans/hopes for the kickstarters last 3 days??

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

PREORDER THE QUEEN'S RISE (all 3 books in 1) here: books2read.com/thequeensrise

[@AphroditeLee]

They are called Vellum Inserts! I love them!!! Also... Bethany PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE when this is over and things calm down in your universe, make a video on exactly how you planned and created your Kickstarter! So many creators leave out crucial details and I feel so lost in the process. CONGRATULATIONS! I am so proud of you!

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Yayyy awesome, thank you so much! Oooh that's a fun idea... I still don't feel like an expert, but I have plans to hopefully interview someone who helped me with my kickstarter a ton so stay tuned for that hopefully a month or two after the kickstarter ends! :D

[@jeanshelbybooks4154]

I’d love that too! 😊

[@amberdeyoung2919]

Yes these!!!! I’m sure that is the ‘real name’ I’ve also heard them called Page overlays and please that would be amazing!!!!!

[@TheSilverG]

Yes, a video on 48hrs books would be great!

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Yayyy awesome, I will start making notes for that video right away!

[@freddy902]

Yay we did it! We got every stretch goal unlocked besides the audiobook. In the future I would easily back a Kickstarter for audiobooks/audio dramatizations of the queens rise and stolen Kingdom series.

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Yessss so exciting! And after I've covered all the other expenses and can see what's left, I will definitely look into audiobooks if there's enough to cover at least half of it! :)

[@L.M.Lefrancois]

I'd love a video for the 48-hour books experience! But this is so exciting for you, im so happy everything is going well so far. ❤

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Yayyy awesome, I will start making notes for that video right away! Thank you so much!

[@SydneyFaithAuthor]

So exciting! It's been so cool to watch this kickstarter grow. Congratulations! I for one would be super interested in a breakdown of your process working with 48 Hour Books for the foil and embossing, that's something I'd love to try out some day for my own special editions. ❤

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Thanks Sydney! That's a great idea, I’ll make sure to do a video on them for sure!

[@judyprescottmarshall4713]

You deserve all the credit! Enjoy!

[@d.c.contor]

YES 48 hour books video!!!

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Will do! :)

[@katieknightley]

I’m so excited for the extra goodies! I def wish you were getting more in your pocket but I’m sure the sales & reviews will help too! & yes, I see your shorts on KZbin, though I don’t know if it’s bc you’re like one of the top 5 people I watch on here 😅

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Woohoo! I can't wait to send them to you! And thank you, I appreciate that. :) That's so fun that you see the shorts too!

[@authorjoannawhite]

Yes please do a vlog about the process with 48 books I also cannot wait to get the book!!! ❤ so excited.

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Will do! :D And yayyyy!!

[@RoseKindred]

Congrats on it for doing so well. Hopefully more to come!

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Thanks Rose! 🥳🎉

[@TheRealBronweN]

Good for you Bethany. You're living the dream. My Kickstarter got about 50.

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Thank you! This is way better than my past kickstarters, that’s awesome yours did well!

[@elizabethainger7556]

Just joined in on the fun! Can’t wait to get a signed copy. 🥰

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Yay!! So excited to send you a copy!

[@tammiegipson8870]

I am so happy for you. I will be ordering one of the options tomorrow. I really want all in hardback. This is exciting. I never bought from a kickstarter before.

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Yay thank you Tammie! I'm so excited to send it to you woohoo! 🥳🎉

[@marygracewriting]

Aw! I am so excited for you!

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Yay thank you!

[@marconieadventures5734]

Yes please do a video on case lament and the 48 Hour Books!!!! The things you’re able to get done amazes me! 💛💛💛💛

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Thank you so much! And I will do my best to make a fun vlog around that soon! :D

[@MWinklerBooks]

Just wanted to add my congratulations. I'm so excited to get my copy. I'm doing a Kickstarter myself this fall, so any behind the scenes you want to show us is greatly appreciated. Even if I wasn't doing one myself, I think it's really interesting to see all the hard work that goes into something like this. As always, thanks so much for sharing your author journey with us.

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Yay thank you so much! I will def share my vlog from behind the scenes and try to help as much as I can - it's all a little mysterious to me still too though haha, I would HIGHLY recommend the facebook group "kickstarter for authors", I got a lot of help and swaps there! :)

[@MWinklerBooks]

Oh, I didn't know about the Facebook group. Thanks, I'll check them out :)

[@cdmbooks1493]

I love love your channel and this book will be a bestseller, for sure!

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Thank you so much, that means a lot! 🥹❤️

[@AMG_Creates]

So excited for you. I was wondering why some stretch goals looked like they weren't in the right order....I didn't know how much time/costly/involvement was included in them. Also...the see through layover is Vellum paper, or at least that IS see through paper. I'm so excited for this! 2 more days, let's go!!!

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Thank youuu! 🥳🎉 Ooooh I'm so going to look into Vellum paper now hehe, that would be super fun to do somehow, but yessss here's to the last two days woohoo!

[@mizzelle71]

The see through overlay pieces with art are called vellum.

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Sweet, thank you so much, I'll have to look into those asap! :D

[@jeanshelbybooks4154]

I love to see your success as an author. ❤

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Thank you! 🥰

[@DeeBlaregold]

Congratulations 🎉

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Thanks Dee!

[@gamexpress111]

who-hoo! Congrats!

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Thank you! :D

[@jeanshelbybooks4154]

I’ve been working with Qamber Designs for new covers and they are fantastic to work with! They do character art and maps also!

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Ooog good to know, thanks! ☺️

[@lesleybarklay798]

So sad that some of the packages only ship to the US. Would you be able to share where you got the crown from? So tempted to order one for myself, it's so pretty!

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

I was actually considering doing a flash sale where I open up the book boxes to any requested countries - but also feel free to email me if you're just wanting the crown, I can send you the link! :)

[@lesleybarklay798]

@BethanyAtazadeh Would the flash sale be before the kickstarter ends?

[@judyprescottmarshall4713]

Kiss Zion for me. Question. Where did you get the spiral notebook? I looked at Canva and it was $23.00. Yikes!

[@jonathanbassett3656]

OMG I follow Natalie Lee too, I had no clue you knew her

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Yes! She's awesome :)

[@MimicFBS]

Looks like you just hit $10k with 36 hours to go. Congrats!

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Yes! Thank you!🥳

[@ladyangelaIII]

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Woohoo! 🥳🎉

[@NechamaShorSinger]

I want your books, but you are not sending them to Israel 😢

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

Oh no! Thanks for letting me know - I was able to add Israel to the Kickstarter shipping for the omnibus and also the omnibus duo!

[@Heothbremel]

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

[@BethanyAtazadeh]

[@woodlandlady7011]
