Latest Updates from Our Project:
IMPORTANT: Cloth Binding for Edge Editions are Not Viable

Hey guys! Important update for those of you waiting on Wraithmarked deluxe or Edge editions.
A previous printer of ours (not our current printer) had gone to lengths to assure us that our detailed (and usually full-color) illustrations would print well on cloth. Unfortunately we carried this belief over when moving to our current printer and failed to verify with them if that was the case, and as it turns out those promises from the previous printer were (in our opinion) extremely overstated, which we discovered in our recent proofs of THE WAR OF THE WORLDS.
Please take a look below at the comparison of what the art should have looked like versus what it does look like printed on cloth.
We are showing you this to highlight our reasoning behind an important choice we have made moving forward: Starting now, Wraithmarked is moving away from cloth printing on the majority of our other deluxe/Edge editions in favor of high-quality paper (there will be some limited exceptions, like LEGENDS & LATTES, where the art works well on cloth), including projects we have currently in the production pipelines. In the interest of transparency, we’d also like to acknowledge that this means slightly cheaper production costs for Wraithmarked, but not as much as you think. We’re talking about pennies cheaper at the quantities we are printing, not dollars.
Regardless, you have our apologies for the failure to verify that cloth would work with these products, resulting in us moving away from cloth-binding in most of our projects moving forward.
If you have any questions, let us know in the comments below and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can!

Hi Everyone!
A little over a week ago, we had Bryce set aside an afternoon to sign as many bookmarks as he could! We managed to get a little past the halfway point, but with the rest of the bookmarks, then the signature pages for all of the books there's a lot more to go!
Still, we took some pictures (and a really satisfying video) of the chaos that we wanted to share with y'all!
With cover art by Jenny Zemanek and case designs by Rachel St. Clair these books are sure to be gorgeous additions to anyone's collection! What's more, they're even offering some great Add-Ons, like eBooks, paperback editions, and wooden bookmarks that are based on the case designs!

Hi, everyone!
Following up on our last update, the signature page designs for Fire and Song have been completed, and just like the design for Iron Prince, these ones look excellent! Take a look!

Hi Everyone!
Our designer just wrapped up the design for the Iron Prince signature pages and they look pretty awesome! Take a look!
We should be getting the Fire and Song signature pages from our designer soon, so we'll be sure to share those as well!
What's a Signature Sheet?
Once the designs are finalized for production, our printer will print these off way in advance and ship them to the author to be signed by hand. Once they're done the signed pages are sent back and bound into the front of the book.
Getting Final Order Quantities in place!

Hey, everyone!
Coming back from the long weekend here in the US, we're hitting the ground running by getting the final order count for this campaign ready once our pre-press process is done.
As you can probably imagine, it's not as straightforward as picking the number of people who backed each tier. Not only are there 3 different versions of 2 separate books, but we also need to account for Add-Ons, Late Pledges, replacement copies, and extra stock for future Stormweaver campaigns (where applicable).
So, sometimes, we gotta pull out the ol' abacus and do some maths.
More updates to come as we continue working on this campaign!
