This is it! This is the final week for Hilda & Richie's Wizard on Kickstarter!
At the time of this writing, we have done an amazing job! We are over 75% funded and will most likely make the goal.
Still, this is not the time to rest. All our progress will mean nothing if we don't pass 100% before 11:58PM Central Time next week on Friday February 4, 2021.
There remains only 10 days left in the Kickstarter to fund Hilda & Richie's Wizard!
We are 70% funded! But we still need to make our goal. All the cameo rewards are taken now but plenty of original art is left as as a reward.
Tomorrow is the halfway point of Hilda & Richie's Wizard on Kickstarter.
We took a hit yesterday; someone cancelled their pledge and we dropped to under 40%. We are still in a good position though as the higher are funding is, the more likely the project will fully fund.
Make sure you go back Hilda & Richie's Wizard now!

Hilda & Richie's Wizard has been running for a full week on Kickstarter and is one-third funded!
While that is good, we still have to get fully funded. There's still plenty of rewards including original art from the book and 2 cameo slots in Hilda & Richie's next book.
It has begun! We are now live!!
TODAY IS THE DAY BEFORE LAUNCH!
HILDA AND RICHIE'S WIZARD WILL BE LAUNCHING TOMORROW MORNING!!
There are plenty of rewards available starting at US$5 and they are neat ones. I've talked about some of them before.
One of the rewards will be available about 3 days into the campaign. Do you have a classroom or a school full of young readers aged 3-8 years old? Or do you own a shop that sells books and want a unique title to offer customers? Or maybe you know a lot of young children that love reading?
If you pledge US$65, we will send you 12 copies of Hilda & Richie's Wizard! This is only available to US backers with a limit of 10 slots only.
There are plenty of other rewards too including extras! If we hit at least 10% funding by Friday night 1/7/2022 at 10PM Central Time, ALL BACKERS get an extra reward.
When we hit various funding milestones such as 25% funded, 40% funded, 50% funded, etc, I will give all backers an extra reward! That will be sneak peek at a featurette I'm working starring Hilda & Richie. You'll learn about that tomorrow!
We launch around 7-8AM Central Time tomorrow morning on Wednesday January 5, 2022 AD.
Please follow our pre-launch page to be notified of when we go live!!
FUNNY FOX DUO ARE BACK FOR SECOND BOOK!
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Hilda and Richie's Wizard, the sequel to Hilda and Richie (2021), comes to crowdfunding platform Kickstarter this Wednesday January 5, 2022. Created by Max West and being published by Different Mousetrap Press, this incredible book continues the charming adventures of the two foxes.
In their second adventure together, the wealthy Hilda gives her young ward Richie a priceless heirloom: an exquisite silver pendant. Unfortunately, Richie loses the pendant while playing outside. The enigmatic Mr. Abra, a wizard, helps Richie by returning the pendant with magic...but only on the condition that Richie tells Hilda what happened. When Richie hesitates, the wizard teaches Richie and young readers a lesson about doing what is right.
"The first book, while it didn't set the world on fire, sold fairly well and won praise from readers," author Max West says, "This next adventure won't be their last. We'll be seeing a lot more Hilda & Richie books in the future!"
The Kickstarter is slated to run from Jan. 5, 2022 to Feb. 4, 2022 with a funding goal of US$2,400. The funds will print and ship the book, currently planned for a 1,000-copy print run.
The publisher, Different Mousetrap Press LLC, is a small press based in North Dakota in the United States.
