Hi everyone,
It's great to be here! My name is Chris, and I'd be thrilled if you could take a moment to check out my recent campaign for Camp Myth: Kraken Fishing.

Camp Myth is the only summer camp built exclusively for young mythological creatures. Forget canoe rides and knot tying lessons – these kids are more likely to compete in the annual Golem Derby, or discover the proper way to train a Chimera!
From the beginning, I wanted Camp Myth to give readers a unique way to connect with the series. Since the overall theme is about celebrating cultural and racial diversity, I paired with an amazing artist, Jay Camay, and gave fans (or, in this case, backers) the opportunity to design their own mythic campers, which were then featured as illustrations in the book.
The response was absolutely incredible! Book One saw people from across four continents create Minotaurs, Centaurs, Kitsune, Sirens, and everything in between! It was amazing to correspond with those backers and watch their ideas come to life, and I can't wait to do it again!
I'd love to hear your thoughts!
