The past and present coexist in and above Manhattan, and the monsters of myths are real and dangerous! (science fiction novel)
Hi,
The new "all the ebooks" reward level was set by default to include shipping costs. That issue has now been fixed.
Please let me know if you run into any other problems.
My apologies for the inconvenience.

Hi everyone,
Thank you so much for your support on this campaign. As we enter the last few days, please let your friends know that this campaign exists. We are close to 40 backers and $1,000 in pledges. It's fantastic!
I also wanted to let you know we have a new reward level (thanks to a great backer for the suggestion).
For a $20 pledge, you can now get ALL the ebooks: the City At My Feet novel, the prequel novella, and the short story collection. (In case you need it, information on changing your pledge can be found in the FAQ section of this campaign.)
Thanks again, it's been a great ride. Let's finish strong!
Best,
Thomas More
Thank you all again, especially you have pledged in the last couple of days. We have now passed the $900 mark, which is amazing!
Reaching $900 was also a stretch goal. As a result, the first chapter of Book 2 will be included at the end of City At My Feet. In addition, I've decided that I'll include the cover for Book 2, as well. How's that sound?
I have to say, I now feel that getting to $1,000 seems very doable! We have just over a week to get there. And when we do (not if, because you all seem to be able to create magic out there!), everyone gets buttons and bookmarks and — SURPRISE! because I'm feeling so great about breaking the $900 barrier — a kitchen magnet for your fridge, as well.
FYI, I'll be announcing a new stretch goal and a new reward for the $45 and $100 levels in the next couple of days. I think you're going to like both!
Until then, thank you, you are all so amazing! Now let's break through to the other side of $1,000!
Best,
Thomas More, author
I only sent out a status just last night saying we were closing in on $800. And today, we've already surpassed that milestone!
We're now into stretch goal territory, and it looks like getting to $900 isn't such a crazy target after all. :D (And if we do, all backers will get the first chapter of Book 2 included at the end of CITY AT MY FEET).
Thanks again to everyone who has pledged to this campaign. I am, and will forever be, grateful to you all.

Hello backers!
Remarkably, we stand just a pledge or two from $800 -- just $38 shy at the moment! This is incredible, thank you so much.
To celebrate and to encourage others to join the campaign, I've created two stretch goals: one for $900 and another for $1,000.
In case you are unfamiliar with the concept, a stretch goal is an outlandish and unlikely dollar target (inconceivable!). Yet, not impossible. If met, the stretch goal triggers the reward for that goal to be distributed to each and every person, regardless of amount pledged.
For this campaign, we now have a $900 target where the first chapter of the Mannahatta Series Book 2: CITY IN MY HANDS will be included at the end of the first novel that your are currently backing. This will give everyone a glimpse of what is to come next!
For the $1,000 target, bookmarks and pins for all! By the way, if you have pledged to receive the ebook, you might want to consider going for the paperback book as well if we start to close in on that elusive $1,000 mark. (Why not get the physical book to match the bookmark?) Also, note that every backer will get 10 bookmarks and 5 pins, to give to friends or keep for yourself.
Thank you again. And onward!
Thomas More
