Last but by far not least!—a final benefactor shoutout. A thousand thanks to Beth C for her incredible support of Bloodshot World.

When I expressed the Kickstarter idea to her, it was Beth’s enthusiasm that supercharged the effort. Her ideas for the campaign, her willingness to reach out to folks with a personal email, and her generous gifts of time and support—all powered the months-long build. Put simply, the campaign wouldn’t have succeeded without her amazing work.

So grateful to you, Beth, for making it happen!

 Thank you, Joy and Gary, for being a benefactor of Bloodshot World.

Their incredible support for this project--and for so many of my writing projects for more than two decades--has meant so much. My life and work have been far richer for their friendship, hospitality, and generous intellectual camaraderie.

Joy and Gary, you're an inspiration in so many ways!

Benefactor Shoutout for Geoff MacDonald

Thank you, Geoff MacDonald, for being a benefactor of Bloodshot World! 

Geoff was the very first to pledge on the Kickstarter campaign back in August, and seeing his support come through (completely out of the blue!) for the project--that early and that big--boosted my belief that the campaign would succeed. 

We've known each other almost 40 years, and getting his pledge was simply the best way that I can imagine for the campaign to kickoff. 

All my gratitude, Geoff, old friend!
