Fulfillment Completes & New Project Funds
almost 4 years ago – Wed, Aug 05, 2020 at 12:41:57 AM

Hi, Destiny Aurora Fans,

By now if you haven't received your pledge, it will be there soon. As far as I know the fulfillment company has sent everything out. In spite of the delays from the global situation, I think we're still ahead of schedule. I've gotten a bunch of emails about how pretty everything is, I'm looking forward to seeing all of the characters you create. Please forward along a little paragraph about your character, if you write one.

If a piece of your pledge is missing for some reason, please private message me and I'll make sure it's taken care of. As many of you can attest, I respond pretty quickly.

Also, my new project, the espionage action/thriller, C.A.T.s has funded and we're about to hit a stretch goal. If you can post it for me it would be greatly appreciated. Below is a little excerpt as well. Enjoy and thank you all for your support and words of encouragement.

AGENT LOG

(a little short anecdote in the world of C.A.T.s)

Cassie King always seemed to be worried about something. Whether it's the fact that her soon-to-be teenage daughter gave her the cold shoulder for no reason at all, or because her eight year old son enjoyed to be a daredevil whenever he could. Then there was the looming birthday just upon the horizon and the thought that constantly gnawed at the back of her mind: Will her daughter be recruited, and if she was, how will Cassie handle it? Not well, that much was certain.

Beyond all of those worries on this particular day, was the news she just received from her contact in Japan. Kase Mutsohito was traveling to the U.S.; under an alias, of course. Mutsohito was attributed to over two dozen kills over the past seven years, and those were just the ones the agency knew about.

There were assassins that wiped away any semblance of their former identity, then there were others, like Mutsohito, that almost wanted you to know about his past. A tortured childhood and a dysfunctional family life weren't always the elements that created a hardened, heartless killer. Sometimes it was affluence and boredom that made the person search for new challenges. That was the case with Mutsohito. He was fearless and smart and now he was gunning for someone in the U.S. Cassie would have to discover that target quickly and time was not on her side.

Thank you all again and stay safe.

Fulfillment Update & Ne Project
almost 4 years ago – Sat, Jul 18, 2020 at 02:28:56 PM

Hi, Destiny Aurora Fans

Many of you have already received your pledges. For those of you who ordered figures and games with your pledges, the delay was on the part of the post office. They lost one of the boxes of RPG books. Thankfully, it was just found and delivered. Now Quartermaster Logistics has everything they need to start shipping. They'll begin next week, so everything should be in your hands in very soon. 

As of yesterday, I completed shipping everything from here that did not include games and minis.  If you're missing anything in the next couple of weeks, please let me know. 

I've launched a new Kickstarter campaign for my female spy graphic novel. If you can help support, that would be great. We are 33% to goal and there are five different covers to choose from-penciled and colored by Marvel and DC artists.

 NEW GRAPHIC NOVEL KICKSTARTER CAMPAIGN

Also, I started doing comic book reviews, check out my new review of Aquaman #61. There's some others up there as well.

Stay safe. 

Sincerely,

Frank Zanca

Hi, Destiny Aurora Fans,

Many of you have already received your RPG books. I hope you all are enjoying them.

The books that were sent to Quartermaster Logistics have been held up for the past two weeks in the mail. I'll send out another update once Quartermaster receives them and starts sending them out. In the meantime, all of the other packages should be completed within the next ten days. 

Below is what your package will look like. If you didn't receive one of your digital perks, please PM me. 

At inception, C.A.T.s was as a television pilot, which was pitched to BET. Though the executives liked the project, they felt it was too expensive. I had no idea at the time that BET has very little money budgeted for development. The project was then rewritten as a feature, and now, you have a chance to enjoy this fun project in another medium - comics.

C.A.T.s is a secret arm of the government that hunts down assassins and spies. The group trains its recruits from the ripe age of 13 to catch spies. When their head agent’s daughter turns recruitment age she is given no choice but to allow her to follow in her mother’s footsteps.

 GET NOTIFIED AT LAUNCH

The artwork is beautiful and if you like spy stories, then you'll love this one. It's 44 page graphic novel that will have 5 different covers to choose from. We plan on launching about about 10 days. Sign up now.

Thank you all for your continued support and Happy 4th.

Fulfillment Begins

Hi, Destiny Aurora Fans:

I've gotten several requests for an update, but I held off for a few days because of the this news. 

All of the books have arrived! Despite the global situation, we are well ahead of schedule. Today, I shipped the inventory to the fulfillment company - Quartermaster Logistics. So, if you ordered a board game or figures, your pledge will be coming from them. They should receive the inventory next week. They are, of course, a bit understaffed, but I believe they should be able to send  everything out within next couple of weeks.

For everyone that didn't order the board game or figures, I will be shipping those items out from here (California) beginning next week. Exciting stuff! 

All digital only supporters, should have received all of their pledges weeks ago. If you didn't receive the links via email let me know, and I will resend it.

I'm looking forward to hearing all of your adventures in the Destiny Aurora universe. If anyone creates a hybrid character, I'd love to hear about that as well.

If you could give your review of the novels through Amazon, that would be much appreciated. I won't be releasing book 4 on Amazon until after all of the perks are fulfilled.

In other news: I'll be releasing a new Kickstarter campaign at the end of the month for my new comic series - C.A.T.s about a group of clandestine spy-hunters. It was a television series I had originally pitched to BET several years ago. The original proof of concept video used in my pitch and starring Tim Russ of Star Trek: Voyager fame will be included in the perks.

Have a great Father's Day for that it applies to. Stay Safe.
