Project update 3 of 6

Fully funded, Draftober Giveaway, and CBC Radio Interview

by Adam Wilk

Now that Zerowriter Ink is fully funded, it’s time for a giveaway. Plus, I was interviewed by CBC radio and I have a shoutout for a great indie horror podcast.

Zerowriter Ink is Fully Funded

Big news: Zerowriter Ink is fully funded. In fact, it was fully funded in less than a week! I want to take a moment to express my sincere thanks and gratitude for your support in this project. It’s been amazing meeting so many people through many channels: Crowd Supply, discord, reddit, youtube… and more.

This is just the beginning. I’ve recently added on some more experienced contractors to help get everything to production-ready status, and make sure you get the best device we can make.

If you haven’t yet, please spread the word. The more backers this project gets, the more people get involved, and the better it becomes for all of us. Maybe forward this update to someone who might be interested…

Zerowriter Draftober Giveaway

What’s Draftober, you say?! Well, aside from a bad name, it is a time to celebrate the best time of the year: spooky season. You can check out the video below for more info and how you can participate.

I was on CBC Radio!

Ever since I was a kid, I always wanted an excuse to tour the CBC studios. In fact, I thought I’d be a journalist. Anyway, CBC is Canada’s national broadcaster, and I got on to speak about Zerowriter Ink, open source projects, and plug a little maker event in the Ottawa area. It was a blast. Maybe I’ll have a career in radio…

Up Next

Been in marketing mode the last few weeks with the launch, but now that things are getting settled, I’ll be diving back into software dev. My next updates will speak to my commitments to open source, with an example of a new feature that I am really excited about.

Community Shoutouts

Mortis Maledictum is an indie horror podcast featuring interwoven horror and grimdark stories that make you crave answers. I listened to this episode on an evening walk. I might’ve looked over my shoulder once or twice…
