BackerKit Surveys Are Coming!
almost 5 years ago – Tue, Jun 04, 2019 at 03:30:45 PM

Soon, you’ll receive an email with a special link to your BackerKit survey via email! It’s important to respond to your survey as quickly as you can since we need this information to fulfill your rewards. 

When you receive the survey, click the survey link to respond. Answer the questions about your reward preferences,  provide shipping information, and purchase add-on items if you like. 

One more Stretch Goal. The Kickstarter closed before we were able to reach the $17.5k Stretch Goal and unlock the leather-bound cover for War Mage Diary. Many folks are very interested in this bonus. If together we raise $2500 or more in add-ons, I will unlock this Stretch Goal!

You can go back later and change your responses any time before we close the surveys on August 19. If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on the BackerKit  project page at https://warmagediary.backerkit.com. 

If you used your Facebook credentials to log in to your Kickstarter account, the BackerKit survey is sent to the email address you use for your Facebook account. If you have another email address that you prefer to use, please contact support at https://warmagediary.backerkit.com/faq. 

The Backerkit site is really impressive. I hope you enjoy!

LUCKY 13!

Last night we pushed past the $13k threshold! Backers of War Mage Diary have unlocked $24 in FREE rewards.

Mystic Dice. Unlocked.

Iron Golem. Unlocked.

And NOW, the Manticore. UNLOCKED!

Also SAVE on the Unreal Beasts set! This set includes the free Manticore so I’ve lowered the cost to $34 for the eight minis with a pledge for War Mage Diary. 

Sit your Elf astride the stag-like Peyton, mount raptors and gryphons, and don’t underestimate the feisty war pony! The mysterious Green Man heals, the coatl constricts, and the star of the set is the awesome Dragon Rider. Please, consider adding these on to your pledge to take advantage of this great deal!


The project funds in 13 hours…but we’re far from done!

Two key Stretch Goals are near. Consider adding those Unreal Beasts to your pledge because at $15k we unlock the PDF copy of War Mage Diary. And at $17.5k we make War Mage Diary leather-bound! Check in this evening and let’s see how how far we can go before 11 PM central time!

Closing In On The End. And the Next Stretch Goal!
almost 5 years ago – Sat, May 11, 2019 at 11:39:05 AM

I can work endless hours on storytelling, art, and design without pause. But, running a Kickstarter is exhausting. It’s the actual marketing that comes harder to me. Yet, I’m still sad to see we’re down to the last 30 hours or so because it’s worth all the extra effort to share my work and connect with hundreds of new folks daily here.

We’re very near to another Stretch Goal! If we reach $13,000 in funding, War Mage Diary backers will add the $7 Manticore figure to their haul that already includes the $12 Mystic Dice and the $5 Iron Golem. This will also lower the price on the Unreal Beasts miniature set to just $34.


I’ll let you in on a secret. The Unreal Beasts section of War Mage Diary is still evolving! When I sit down to write, the vast background lore of Perdition goes to work. I think about the exotic creatures I want to add like manticores to command and dragons to ride. I balance these dreams with the cost, the power, and the fairness within the game system. And then as write, I also make connections to characters you’ve already met and improve on both existing and unreleased adventures. It’s almost magic how serendipitously the process works. And where I end up is always better than I originally imagined.

The marketing portion of our journey is wrapping up. And the best is yet to come for all of us!

The FINAL HOURS to claim your rewards!
almost 5 years ago – Fri, May 10, 2019 at 08:34:24 PM


Mystic Dice. Unlocked.

Iron Golem. Unlocked.

Secret Stretch Goal. Unlocked for many.

Your bonus rewards are mounting up with the free Manticore very close—and War Mage Diary is going to be pretty darn great by itself!


Don’t Miss Your Chance for a Mini by the Master!

James Wappel has won countless awards, reached over one million gamers with his Wappellious blog, has wowed viewers with live painting sessions, and paints in mixed mediums incorporating oils, airbrush, acrylics, and more. James’ live painting sessions like this one for GOT are amazing!

Have James paint one of your minis! Lets  open this up as a pledge add-on!

  • Pick your mini from the unlocked Stretch Goals or WitchBorn Extras 
  • Add $149 to your pledge with the Manage My Pledge button (please don’t give up your current pledge)
  • Add $50 for miniatures marked in pics as (Big) or $100 for (Huge) 
  • You’ll even qualify for the Secret Stretch Goal if you haven’t already!

Let’s limit these to 2 minis per pledge and I’ll post a note if we exceed James’ limit. You can also message me to make sure I lock you in!

Please don’t miss this chance! Let’s see if we can unlock a few more Stretch Goals in the final hours. And thank you for all of your support!
