Through the Aurora Hardcover Print · 12:37pm Mar 1st, 2020
Hey pones, got some really exciting news to share. It's taken a little extra time to get ready, but it's finally time. As Through the Aurora reaches its end here on Fimfiction, the book will be getting a hardcover print!
(that's a rough version of the cover without the typeface)
This is going to be a printing unlike anything I've done before. This hardcover will include somewhere between 15-20 illustrations, specifically crafted just for this print. It's going to take a tiny bit longer to get everything finished, but holy crap does the work in progress I've seen look incredible. The book will also include another 15-20k of never-before-or-since published material, following the epilogue here on Fimfiction.
I hadn't really planned on printing this book or any others for a good long while after Message 2, but the sponsor for Through the Aurora had other ideas. After seeing all the fantastic art come together for this thing, I just couldn't say no.

That looks good!
Well I just put my money in it! Can't wait for it!
Looking forward to getting the book. Very nice cover art! I can't see Emerald's wings though.

Don't worry, seems like he picked the wrong version for the blog post ^^ I can gurantee you that the cover is still work in progress and you can acutally see them on the Indiegogo campaign.
I have added this to the Printed Fiction Hardcopies group to spread the word
I have a feeling I'm going to end up wanting the art of the winter scenes.
This painting reminds me of one my grandmother did that's sitting in storage (along with my piano I can't play) waiting for me to buy a house. Aside from the fact it's a winter scene there's very little in common. But the feels are there.
I have a growing collection of hardcover pony works... And Starscribe is making certain that there is a legitimate economy of space being fought over.
Good to see another one coming out.
I've been trying to contribute to this but I keep getting back an error message from Indiegogo that my contribution was unsuccessful. Tried with 2 different CCs, and contacted my bank, and they said it's not on their end as they're not even getting a transaction request so they haven't declined anything.
Damnit I only have $23.64. I must find a way to make the rest in time.

If Indiegogo keeps giving you trouble and you still want the book, PM me. We could use paypal instead. That happens to people every time.

If you run out of time but still want the book, PM me when the campaign ends. I could set one aside for you until you're ready to get it.

Wow, really? I hope to be able to purchase a signed copy.

Sure thing. Just PM me when the campaign ends if things don't work out. I'll make sure there's an extra one printed for you.
oh boy! Time to binge and catch up!
This has been on my "to read" list for a while, and now I can pull the trigger!
And with a cover that beautiful, I might have to pull the book trigger once I'm done!
Yay! I guessed right. Take my wallet.

I already messaged indiegogo, waiting for a response to see if they can help.
Nearly fully funded within a day! Congrats! Ordering a copy too
