The Kickstarter has launched! 🎉🎉🎉
Do you want a book full of:
🔥Queer characters.
🔥Heart pounding survival.
🔥Hope even in the scariest of times.
🔥A focus on all the people who hold out their hand to offer help.
Then you might want to check this one out! It's also a short standalone, easy to read in an afternoon.
Back the project here from now until March 1st 2025 to get the special edition hardcover!
And check out the blurb below:
Camp Daze Kickstarter (finally) launching this Friday afternoon!
Blurb: With summer winding down, the counselors at Camp Aspen Heart are counting the days until they go home to their own beds after weeks of songs and campouts and budding friendships. But a missing food delivery after the start of one of the last sessions sets off alarms in the isolated camp. With no easy way to contact the outside world Conifer, a survivalist who grew up going to the camp every summer before becoming a counselor herself, heads out to try and find out what is going on, only to be confronted with the unthinkable: a nuclear war has started, and they’ve been forgotten. Conifer was raised to survive the end of the world. Any end of the world. Except this one, alone in the woods with over 150 kids to save and only a handful of other young counselors to help her.
Camp Daze is an adult novel that will also appeal to fans of YA stories. It is the first book in a planned three book series. Great for fans of All That's Left in the World by Erik J. Brown and Prepped by Bethany Mangle.
This Kickstarter will fund the initial print run of the paperback and a special edition hardback, as well as covering the costs of editing and some marketing! The special edition will have a unique case design and interior illustrated elements. Plus, as we go, we'll unlock even more upgrades for it!
Read the first two chapters on my website for free!

The adult coloring book trend isn't going anywhere anytime soon. What began as a meditative way to unwind after a long day at work has blossomed into a genre all its own, with books depicting everything from peaceful pastoral scenes to inspiring messages for young women.
