It was a Sunday afternoon in March and I wanted a glass of red wine more, I was sure, than I had ever wanted anything in my entire life. I was two months sober, the weather was shit and my nerves were shot. I had spent most of the weekend thinking that the trip to Munich was a mistake, that travel would never be the same again, that life was hardly worth living without a drink in my hand. Our last stop before boarding the train back to Frankfurt was a visit to Museum Brandhorst, a modern art ...
MS BourlandAstro Dream With Me
Neuroscientists don’t know exactly where dreams originate inside the human brain. They can’t extract or study a dream itself, only descriptions of a dream, filtered through the memory of the dreamer. And the prevailing scientific explanation of dreams—defragmentation of the memory drives of the mind—somehow fails to satisfy. Recently, I’ve wondered if virtual reality is an attempt to create a kind of waking dream, a world on the boundary line, a way to tap into those hidden corners of the psy...

The “Into the Gorge” mint includes an all-new short story + a 60-min audio episode + original artwork, all for free: no hurdles & no BS. Read on for how & where to mint!
+++
"Into the Gorge" is the 1st piece of my limited-edition NFT series "Shadows of the Gods." This standalone short story + original art free mint is the proof-of-concept for my full book launch this fall, so you're doing me a huge favor by taking part!
Minting will take place on my shiny new project site: shadowsbook.xyz.
The Shadows Book site is a fully custom build by @AriaWorkshop: a custom token-gated dApp platform on Ethereum, powered by my own gas-optimized smart contract.
Minting goes live on Wednesday, July 27 at 12pm UTC / 14.00h CET / 8:00am EST.
We've set a limit of 2 tokens per wallet & there is a max supply set, so be sure to mint early so you don't miss out! As a bonus: everyone who mints will automatically be included on the allowlist for the drop of Book One: The Death Bringer this fall (wallet snapshot TBA).
Here's how it will work:
Connect your Ethereum wallet to my project site
Mint up to 2 tokens for 0 ETH + gas fees
Upon minting, your NFT unlocks the site’s token-gated Library
The Library includes eBook AND audio downloads in Kindle/Apple Books/Spotify-friendly formats
And of course you’ll be able to view the NFT in your wallet on OpenSea!
My goal here is to deliver a simple, functional, no BS launch. The art + story are the utility. There’s no DAO, no token, no investors. It’s just me, a solo creator & the artists, developer & designers who decided to collaborate with me to make all this happen.
No one ever accomplishes anything worthwhile alone, & there's an amazing team behind this project. Each one is an incredible creator in their own right & I can't believe how lucky I am to work with these people!
The original art for “Into the Gorge” was created by the amazingly talented & unbelievably kind @CR24TI7E.
@AriaWorkshop is our developer extraordinaire & none of this would exist without his dedication & hard work!
The “Into the Gorge” audio episode features the professional voice-acting talents of my college roommate/best friend @OccupyClaire!
Of course, it's not really an audio-book without music! @JETS0N aka Mr. Bourland is creating the music that will bring Shadows of the Gods to life.
You probably know @NFTerryBain as an artist; he's also a professional book designer & publishing industry veteran who's designing the physical books available to collect this fall.
Last but not least, @LINK_artwork is the incredible web designer helping make sure our mint site shines!
If you like what we're building & want to see NFT books/publishing succeed, it would be really cool if you'd share the mint details with your friends here. I've also created a Twitter group for friends of the project where I share news/reveals/insider updates - send me a DM if you want in!
