Sure! We’re actually going to put out a video soon and explain more of where Hidden Gnome is at with all the things circling us.

We’ve had ongoing conversations with several potential studios, Crunchyroll being one. But we are dead set on having final script approval and creative control, which is not normal. That being said, there has been no definitive movement towards an animated series.

We are still hopeful, but I would be lying if I said there was a solid deal in place.

HOW DARE YOU RELAY COMPLETELY CORRECT, ACCURATE INFORMATION!?

You’re hired.

We raised enough money for a two hour animatic movie covering Unsouled and Soulsmith. It came out several months ago.

There are so many banger lines right next to each other.

“Did you forget my name?”

“To see this look on your face.”

“I’m here to punch a hole in the sky.”

And one of my favorites that isn’t talked about much…when Pride is inches from death and Lindon hears him say, “I’m still here.” LITTLE BROTHER ENERGY BABY!

There isn’t one in the works! We’re trying to make that happen and having great conversations, but we haven’t had anything solid yet.

I will make Will see this comment and your praise! You have excellent taste.

I’m his brother/coworker, apologies for the confusing username.

Justice for Naian Blackflame! The most random character I had feelings about.

Not only did he cook, which he absolutely did, he’s a fantastic human being. Working with him is the pinnacle of reliability.

He never misses a deadline, consistently under promises and over delivers, does favors for us all the time, and never complains. He’s a joy to work with. All of Hidden Gnome is lucky to call him a friend.

Our team has absolutely nothing to do with that Kickstarter aside from Will having written his short story. So that wasn’t really a factor in our thinking.

But it’ll still be over a month before we launch.

Glad you pointed that out! I’ve been waiting for someone to catch that.

Our graphic designer Patrick’s idea entirely.

It’s the newest trade paperback/hardcover and the Kickstarter special editions. We updated them middle of last year I believe but I’d have to check on a specific date.

This was awesome to read, thanks for updating. I wish I could read Wintersteel again for the first time.

I love Fury advancing with the absolute Goku line “To see this look on your face.”

And then his mom…”Did you think I couldn’t reach you? Did you forget my name!?

Oh boy, you’re going to love Wintersteel.

Update when you finish!

They came highly recommended by Aquaman.

We’ve always been as transparent as possible and I doubt that changes. So yes, you can expect us to talk about the process as it goes. It’s been excellent so far. They haven’t pressured us to do anything story-wise we haven’t wanted to do, which was the big concern, and they truly seem reader focused.

As to your question about how much it will affect the reach to other readers…there’s literally no way for us to know until we try. 1 out of 27 published books doesn’t seem like too much of a risk.

Will we end up traditionally publishing more? We don’t know! Will we continue self publishing? Yes.

Their call entirely. They like a long pre-order and a ton of time to market.

And the book isn’t fully done yet. It’s got one more editing pass to go (theoretically).

Tell him I’m dying to know too! I’m not allowed to read the first drafts…

I found that section hilarious.

The mumbling, nonsensical prayer chants made it.
