Howdy Folks,

Be sure to check your e-mails, as you should have received a download link to our Digital PDF for Why Slay Dragons when you could be FISHING!

Day 1 Backers, we are still working on the Day 1 PDF, that will be out in a short time - and we will announce when we are releasing it (should be before we ship out physical products).

Physical products are still being manufactured, and will have more news on that when it comes.

Thank you for being a part of this journey!  I hope it is everything you all wanted in a fishing book.

Did not get your PDF?: You may not have completed your Backerkit Survey.  You must complete this before receiving your Download Link to the Digital PDF.

Backerkit Preorders:  If you have preordered the PDF ONLY - your card will have been charged, and you should have received the link.  However, if you ordered other items besides the Digital PDF, you have not been charged yet, and will not get the link.  I did not want to charge our preorders until everything has been manufactured and we are close to shipping (since we're still looking at a couple of months out).  If you want your Digital PDF now and don't mind being charged for everything while waiting a few months for what you've ordered, feel free to message me, and I will do so - so you can get the PDF!

If you are uncertain why you have not gotten a Digital PDF yet, message me, and I will see what I can find out.

Thank you again.  The next update will involve our Day 1 PDFs, and when we will ship out our physical products.

Why Slay Dragons when you could be FISHING Digital PDF Release Date! (February 7th)
about 2 years ago – Thu, Feb 01, 2024 at 10:57:17 AM

Howdy folks,

I'm so excited to announce our Digital PDF will be releasing February 7th!

For our Backers, I will be working hard to make sure that you guys get it no later than this date (I'm hoping to have the PDF in your hands sooner). 

We will be sending our design documents off to the printers, in the hopes of having the physical copy read to mail out to you all in 1-3 months, along with all the other items (we're starting to get pre-production mock-ups of the rest of the items now)

The Day 1 PDF is aiming to be out before we mail out the books, so stay tuned for news on that.

To all of you, thank you for your love and support.  This was our first book, and it has been an absolute blast to work on.  Stay tuned as we will have more announcements from IO Publishing shortly.

Have a wonderful day,
Brett
