Here's the BackerKit link if you didn't get it yet!

Hey all!

As of earlier today you should have all gotten a link to the DARREN MCCARTY BackerKit, which is where you need to go to verify your address and finalize your order.

If you didn't see (or get) the email, you can access your BackerKit HERE:

As mentioned a moment ago, through BackerKit you'll also be able to  provide us with  your shipping address and specify any other details...  including adding on any bonus items you may want.

You can also share the BackerKit link if you know anyone who perhaps missed the initial campaign but may want to get a copy of the book and the other items available. 

What You Need to Know About BackerKit (Especially if You've Never Used it Before)

Your BackerKit will be pre-populated with the rewards you pledged for during the campaign. After you answer the questions related to your pledge level (if applicable), BackerKit will take you to the Add-Ons page. The Add-Ons page is set up just like a web store where you'll be able to include any  Add-Ons you may have wanted by adding extra money  to your pledge during  the campaign. Basically, it's just like you're  shopping online -- if you want anything extra.

Otherwise, just confirm your pledge and shipping address and you'll be good to go!

If you have any questions, please send a message through the BackerKit page -- or send me a Direct Message through this platform -- and I'll be in touch soon!)Here's the BackerKit link one more time:

Enjoy, all!


 

Thanks again!

Thanks to ALL OF YOU!

 
This Darren McCarty Life Is A Grind, Enjoy My Truth campaign has been funded!! 
 
Mess Bucket Comics and Darren McCarty are very proud of this Graphic Novel and campaign.  We had a lot of help from some great people to make this happen along the way as well. The great people at Fox 2 Detroit, Billy Tucci, Barry Sanders, Kurt Angle, Peter Dante and so many more have helped us get to this great achievement. This means the world to us, and we have all of you great backers to thank!
 
An autobiographical, 180 page hockey graphic novel is an outside of the box idea in the comic industry. That idea slowly became reality with a TON of dedication and hard work from extremely talented people like the following:  John Marroquin, Erik Hodson, Justin Birch, Billy Tucci, Dirk Manning and Dominic Riggio. This experience has exponentially motivated Mess Bucket Comics and all involved to do even MORE unique projects in the future.
 
There are only 3 days left in this campaign. Let's get the word out even more! Please share the videos on social media that we have posted at @messbucketcomics (FB, Twitter and Instagram) as well as the campaign at McCartyComic.com. If we reach the stretch goal everyone will get more great items with their purchases.
 
Happy New Year and our most sincere THANK YOU!
