They should get here in a month { approx } and then I will be organising them to send out to you first,.. You should get all your rewards before they're in the shops even !!  :0)  . Thank you from the bottom of my lunch box for your help, trust and faith . The book looks aweswome and lots of cool comments from my distributors , family and friends.... even from the printers !  :0)  kepp an eye out for this in a month or so :0)  ps.

Because of your support in late September this year we'll have a new Craig Smith book in store, libraries and homes throughout NZ !. YOU'RE ALL AWESOME . I can't thank you enough. Many individuals pledged and I wanted to not only thank them but also a big shout out to the many libraries who got on board and also to the companies who pledged the large amounts. These include Contec group christchurch, Burgers and beers Christchurch, Harcourts Queenstown, Skyline Queenstown and of course New World Wanganui who not only pledged to have me play there when I'm on my tour at the end of the year but then also pledged another $1000 in rewards !. So their total was an amazing $2000 in pledges for this campaign !!. However I don't want this statement to take away from all those individuals who pledged and made up the rest of the total figure needed to hit the $15,000 !. Thank you all so much !. In saying this , there is still a few hours left should anyone else be keen to grab a book or two before the day is through !.  This is called "over subscription" and is a real cool thing to happen :0) Once again thanks so much , from the bottom of my heart, it's because of people like you that people like me can follow their dreams and hearts. You've made our family very happy. And as you can see.... my daughter agrees !!

ps. Another early look at one of the very cool illustrations for "Eating" by The very cool Scott Tulloch. Books out to you as soon as they land in NZ in Sept  :0)

To all those who've pledged so far , THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH , you're awesome.  With 48 HOURS LEFT we only need another $1790.00 to hit the $15,000.00 needed !!. The average pledge is about $40 that means we only need another 45 more pledges { unless someone/organisation is REALLY generous } to hit the goal. What I'm asking is for each of you to PLEASE think of one or two more person{s}/organisation{s} each that have kids or may be keen to pledge to pre buy my new picture book "Eating"or one of the many other rewards. You can do this by telling them, phoning them, texting them , e mailing them, facebook messaging them, smoke signal them anything you can. To make it easy all you have to do is copy and paste the below blurb to them. If each of you who have already pledged do this we'll hit the goal easily. Please try to get just 1 more each. It might be a relative, friend, neighbour or work collegue ?. Thanks so much. with your help this book will get published  :0) Warm regards, Craig Smith.

Here are some articles that have been written so far about the campaign:

This afternoon I had an amazing call from New World supermarket Wanganui . They want to pay for me to come play at their super market while on tour at the end of the year and pledged to buy $1000.00 worth of rewards to give to their customers heading into me playing there !. So a pledge of $2000.00 for my project and for the people of Wanganui !. Including this and the other 116 pledges takes us to half the funds at the midway point !. Thanks to everyone who've pledged so far. Let's please keep the ball rolling and with a bit more effort, we'll get "Eating" published !
