Big Smoke Pulp Vol. 2 Launches Today!
It's been about a year, so it's time to launch Volume 2!
Many, many authors have submitted stories - but only these have made the cut. I had to eliminate some pretty good stories to keep this book from being 4000 pages!
You'll see some familiar names in here from Vol. 1 along with some new ones.
For those of you who haven't been following, the book has gone a little more horror this time out, and the cover follows suit.
Secret Rewards for Vol. 1 Backers
As a thank you for making Vol. 2 possible with your support of the first Big Smoke Pulp, we have some Secret Rewards that offer you nice discounts for physical items.
Shipping Update and a Mea Culpa

Hey Folks,
This isn't the update I planned today...
Shipping Delayed
As I eagerly awaited the UPS truck, I received an unfortunate update from the printer:
It'll be another few days yet before these books hit my door. I'll keep everyone updated as to when they do!
Mea Culpa
As a thank you for your patience, I'll be throwing in some extras in the form of stickers and an extra bookmark.
Not our book, but our bookmark!
Digital Copies are Live!
You should have received an email from Backerkit with the subject "New Digital Content..." - giving you access to digital copies of the book (and comics, if you got those as well.)
If you've had any problems accessing them, please let me know and I'll get the files to you.
One Last Thing
Our most recent project, From Parts Unknown #2, has just been deemed a Project We Loveby Kickstarter!
There's still a couple of weeks left in the campaign and we're just a backer or two away from funding. If you're at all interested in comics, we've put together a fun one for you here!
I'll share more as packages begin arriving and shipping is underway! Talk soon.

BIG Update for Big Smoke Pulp Vol. 1
over 1 year ago
– Thu, Feb 13, 2025 at 01:31:23 PM
Hey Folks,
It's been a while since my last update, but I've got some good news fulfillment-wise.
Digital Copies are Ready
In a few moments, I'm going to send out the 'final notice' to lock your surveys. Once those lock, you'll be given access to your digital copies (both in PDF and EPUB).
This process can take up to 48 hours, so don't panic if you don't receive the email with access to your digital rewards right away.
For those of you who will be digging into the digital copies, I really hope you enjoy the stories within!
Be sure to reach out to the authors and let them know if any of their stories speak to you. I'm sure they'll appreciate it.
Physical Copies are In-Production
I've been given a tentative date of February 27th for the final copies to arrive at my door. From then, I'll need a few days to get your packages together and in the mail.
You will be able to track all of it via Backerkit. A tracking email will be sent out to you once those are on their way.
All said, you should receive your physical copies by mid-March.
Something New
For those of you who are interested in comics, our new campaign for From Parts Unknown #2 launches next Wednesday!
