PGTS Merch Engagement Challenge

Hey guys!

I am away from home on family vacation but popping in to mention this in lieu of the weekly chapter.

We got a lot of good feedback from you about what kind of Practical Guide to Sorcery themed items you might want.

Now, we're taking final ideas for what to put on those items. Cool quotes, spell arrays, images, etc.

I know there's been interest in having me draw up Siobhan's personal glyph that she put together with the chanting ritual, and I'm totally down to do that. Other great ideas are the University sky kraken symbol, the Verdant Stags' antlers, etc.

Another example is Siobhan's quote from A Conjuring of Ravens, “I’m not broke. I’m merely experiencing a temporary inversion in my ratio of income versus expenses."

And it doesn't have to be stuff directly from the book, either. For example, a quote like, "I serve the Raven Queen."

We're giving rewards to those who come up with ideas we pick and who have participated in both polls.

Please check out the poll to see an idea of what some items will look like (we've got preliminary mockups of the easier options, but the images themselves are just examples): Reader Merchandise Poll 2

In exchange for your feedback, we've got a few different engagement challenge rewards that you can choose between. You can get a free couple pieces of smaller merch when they're made, free audiobooks, and for those who aren't already patrons (or those who would like to drop patronage for a month and save the dollars), a month of free access to the advance chapters--this is via my website, as Patreon itself has no way to gift memberships currently.

We will give out as many rewards as ideas we use; no limits.

If you see an idea you really like, please give that person a heart or reply to their comment to let us know that you want what they've come up with. This will help us gauge what to move into production.

We're not doing anything too expensive or fancy to start, but we can still keep more extravagant ideas in mind for the future. (Raven plushies, Siobhan Funko-pops, 3-D printed shadow-familiars in ultra-black...)

And I'd also just like to take this chance to thank all of you for your support. It means a lot to me that you guys are enjoying the stories I create. Thank you. :)
