Hey hey! Happy Monday!

Kyle here, with a really fun one for you today. We’ve got the first story in our new Black Market Presents… program, ourBMN Exclusive Radiant Black Massive-Edition Book Two is officially open for pre-orders and—

MASSIVE-VERSE LIVE

We’ve got a new edition of Massive-Verse Live tonight! Unfortunately, Michael won’t be able to join us— he got really sick while he was in LA for the party and some meetings and unfortunately has found himself still rather unwell.

But don’t worry, we’ll still show off a whole bunch of videos from the party, including the black light experience, and dive into more behind the scenes from the Radiant Black audiobook. And I might even post a link in the chat if anyone wants to come up to chat for a segment.

Head over to our YouTube channel at 6 PM Pacific! Or just hit that video right above.

Massive Edition Book Two BMN Exclusive

BLACK MARKET PRESENTS…

As announced last week, Black Market Presents… is our new showcase for original vertical short stories from creators we’re excited about. And today, we’re bringing you our first release.

These aren’t stories that are leading to new Massive-Verse books, or even necessarily fuller projects beyond what you’re reading right here. Of course, if something does really resonate for people, we’ll certainly take notice and consider that as we put together new projects. To that end, we’ve got a little poll at the end of each story. Let us know what you think and definitely make sure you hit the Discord to chat about it!

And just like Massive-Verse Live, this is now setup as its own section of the newsletter. However, don’t worry— you won’t get email notifications… unless you want them! In that case, hit the link to “subscribe to Black Market presents” and make sure you check the box for it.

Now, without further ado…
