Updates: Our Website; Crowdfunding Changes

Dear Readers,

We've been so thrilled by the response to our cover reveal for Of Shadows, Stars, and Sabers! We are pleased to announce our website is live, and we invite you to explore its pages and news posts. More features will arrive as time goes by.

Stars and Sabers – Publishing
To the Stars Through Stories (Ad astra per fabulas) About Us At Stars and Sabers, we bring you original and powerful stories from new and established writers ac

This is a gorgeous site, designed by Dash Creative Group in Tampa, Florida. We hope you love it as much as we do.

A Crowdfunding Update

Whether by the unfortunate Crowdstrike tech disaster today or some other reason, our Kickstarter did not work. We were not given the tech support we needed, after multiple attempts, to resolve the issue and we therefore missed out on the goodwill associated with the cover reveal, to our disappointment. For that reason, we deleted the Kickstarter. We will not use their service going forward, but may research similar backer services.

For now, we will proceed with the Ko-Fi fundraising we've been using for several weeks. We are now 45% backed there. And while having a successful Kickstarter would have elevated this project to a broader audience, it was not to be.

We would love for you to share this link as we still wish to fund our anthology and imprint expenses. Thank you so much for your help and support!

Anthology Updates

This week, we are editing three new short stories from our anthology authors. We are also about to receive another batch in the coming days. Each one is like opening a gift! And we can't wait to share the entire book with you in February.

We are also exploring the idea of having Of Shadows, Stars, and Sabers being part of a subscription box. Given its beautiful cover and wonderful participants, we think it would be ideal for such an opportunity.

For our website linked above, you may see under the News page some blog posts we made. We would like to feature our writers on guest posts, and at some point we also may commission some articles for the site.

Many fun things await!

We greatly appreciate all your good cheer and support.

Ad astra per fabulas,
