Thanks again,

Hi Everyone
Just a quick update: unfortunately prints are delayed until the end of September for US and Canadian backers and into October for the rest of the world.
Reason for delay:
I never would have expected that after I submitted files on the 26th of July it would be over seven and a half weeks until I received prints - as my printers told me I would receive them on the 1st of September. I made no significant changes after submitting, but despite this, the printer first shifted the delivery date forward to the 6th without notifying me. The prints were then sitting for days waiting to get through customs from Canada into the USA for reasons still unclear to me. The delivery date then changed to the 12th and I was ready to send these out very rapidly when they arrived so you all would get your copies in September. They crossed the border and were on their way to be delivered. I answered the phone with FedEx, with whom the printers sent the books on the 12th expecting them to tell me they would be arriving within an hour only to have the FedEx agent tell me they had to reschedule the delivery to the 17th and could not change it to sooner.
I apologize for the delay and will try my best to complete projects earlier than planned in the future, in case a series of unfortunate delays outside of my control happens again.
Itch.io download link:
Some backers have requested an itch download link so they can add Wind Wraith to their library. Here it is: (it should work as long as your backer email matches your itch account email)

I have just sent the PDF out via Backerkit and Drivethrurpg, I hope you all enjoy it!
If you did not receive your PDF from Backerkit or Drivethrurpg:
You might want to first check your spam, if the link is not there please send me a message by clicking my name beside the project banner, and then clicking 'contact me'. You can also leave a message below this update. I will private message a new download link to you once I see your message. Every time I send mass PDF links out, there is a fraction of people who never receive the link despite their email being on the list - I think this is likely from technical errors with the mass email system. Hopefully by using two systems at once this time less people will fall through the digital cracks.
If you never finished your Backerkit survey:
One reason you might not have received your link is if you never filled out your backerkit survey. In this case, it would make it easier for me if you could find your survey email in your inbox and finish filling it out. But either way, I will be manually searching for all of you who paid but never finished your survey and sending you your PDF over the next couple of days so don't worry - but the system will not include you automatically, which is what creates the delay.
If you got your Wind Wraith PDF, but did not receive your add-on PDFs:
Add-on PDFs were fulfilled around November 14th 2023 via Drivethru and Backerkit so please first search your inbox as you might have missed the link from back then. If not please send me a message by clicking my name beside the project banner, and then clicking 'Contact me'. You can also leave a message below this update. I will send new add-on PDF link to you once I see your message.
Update on Prints:
So far everything seems to be going according to plan with the prints. The print files have been approved and are in production now. I should receive the prints and be able to start shipping in early September, as I mentioned in the last update.
Thanks again for backing,

Hello Everyone,
Here is a progress update:
Print:
Print files have been sent to the printer on schedule on the 26th of this month. The printer's original estimate for when prints will arrive to me was the 31st of August (this could always be pushed back a little if there are pre-media problems or issues with proofs I receive before then). Everything is still scheduled for fulfillment in September. The final page count came out to be 142 pages, excluding cover and back cover, so I added 22 extra pages.
PDF:
I will release the PDF within the next two weeks - The delay is just so I have enough time to add bookmarks and hyperlinks and a few other things, like a convenient section for printouts with decreased black levels to spare your printer's precious toner. I also want to separate some of the art from the text so that it is easy to print out (or show on screen) for players to see - without any spoiler text immediately around the art. But importantly, on top of that, I also want to add a couple of extra pages, tools, and content to the PDF that are not featured in the book - that can be printed out as bonus tools. So please bear with me a bit longer for the PDF release, as I think these extras will be appreciated when you are prepping to run a game.
Here are a few new art pieces:
Thanks again for backing,

Hello Everyone,
I wanted to let you all know progress is moving along daily, but as a follow-up to my last update, I want to confirm that the estimated delivery date will be delayed until September. Sorry about this delay, it can be hard to predict ahead of time how long these book-length ttrpg projects will take.
The cause is a mixture of three factors: The first is falling behind deadlines in the winter due to bureaucratic battles from moving country which were more time-consuming than I was expecting. The Second is my printers becoming busier and quoting slightly longer turn around times. The third is that there is more content I want to include that pushes the page count higher. I apologize for any inconvenience caused by this delay.
Here is some new Wind Wraith work:
Thanks again for backing,
