One of my Kickstarter reward levels included a custom hidden doodle inside the book box by my cover artist/husband @seanmcbeth.com
I thought he'd just draw a stick figure and be done with it, but this is the first one he did.

This is one of the best things I've ever seen in a manual. And I had one once tell me to read the instructions carefully because they cared about me and didn't want me to die.

Back in 2013, @mamcbeth.bsky.social shared an idea for a novel she was procrastinating, so I bet her $100 she wouldn't complete #NaNoWriMo.
She won the bet, creating the first book in her #selfpublished #scifi series, The Sphere Saga.
Here we are, 11 yrs later:
