Project Update: Quick Check-In

Hello, all!

Quick update. In my last post, I mentioned that some team members had changed and that the book still needed to go through editing and layout.

Good news: editing was completed a couple of weeks ago, and the book is now in layout. I do not have a firm timeline for that stage yet, but it is in very good hands.

Those hands, which I neglected to credit previously, belong to Ryan Creedon, also known as RACComputing (DO NOT REMOVE / DO NOT TRANSCRIBE, Sunset Over Ithica, Straight Arrows). Editing was completed by Chris Airiau (Bio-Drones & Cryo-Clones, When In Rome, Not Enough Scoundrels).

They are both tremendously talented, and their work is helping bring this thing over the finish line.

The plan now is to let Ryan cook. Once layout is complete, I will finally send out the PDFs, as most backers voted to continue waiting for the finished version, and then begin the printing process.

One important note regarding printing: I expect to run the remaining BackerKit charges around the time the files are sent to print rather than waiting until the books are ready to ship.

The book has grown considerably since the campaign. It is no longer the roughly 12-page module originally planned, and the expanded page count, additional production work, and team changes have pushed costs well beyond the original budget. That is on me. The upside is that backers are ultimately receiving a much larger and better-produced book at the original campaign price, which I am genuinely happy about.

Running the remaining charges at the start of printing will allow me to cover those production costs directly. I am working with a local print shop that I can visit in person, so I do not currently expect a massive gap between printing and fulfillment. I will provide advance notice before any charges are processed but letting everyone know ahead of time it will be perhaps earlier than traditionally done in other crowdfunding campaigns (just before shipping, I believe).

That is all for now. Things are moving, and we are finally nearing the end. I will likely update again as layout approaches completion, hopefully with some cool sneak peeks and more concrete dating (my estimation without confirming with anyone anything is within the next 90 days).

Thank you again to everyone for your patience, to Chris for showing me just how valuable a good editor is, and to Ryan for the beautiful work now underway.

Project Update: July Update

We're going to print!

Carson and I have just reviewed the most recent digital proof, and we're happy to say it's looking good. We're giving our printer the greenlight to go ahead with full production!

While this momentous step obviously took longer than we planned for, unfortunately, the waiting isn't quite over. We still have to see how long our printer’s production queue is at the moment and use that time to finalize our freight shipping.

The good news is that, because we're producing everything with the same company, we'll be getting all the books, patches, stickers, and tattoos in one go, and we won't have to wait for multiple manufacturers to ship everything to us separately. That will help speed up the final couple of steps a bit.

We'll be sure to let you know when we have firm dates for when these space pirates will load up ship, head to our shores, and eventually set sail to your local port of call!

Everything arrived today, unfortunately (and ironically) my copy of Megadamage showed up damaged. How can I go about getting a replacement?

Just received

Just got my Wages of Sin, T-Shirt, and Megadamage 01. Gotta say, I'm impressed, especially by Megadamage. It's just so much BIGGER than I expected, and really beautiful. The PDFs did not do it justice.

no news yet

Hi team. I see that shipping started about a month ago but as yet I've not had a shipping notification or tracking number. How is shopping progressing? Is there much more to do.

Supply Pod cards

Are these fixed, or are the cards randomized? The inclusion of the foils have me wondering.

Project Update: Fulfillment Updates

Happy Tuesday, everyone! Let’s dive into this month’s update on Wages of Sin.

First, fulfillment has officially begun for Europe, the UK, and North America! As a reminder, folks in North America will have their orders filled by Quartermaster Logistics (QML) while those in Europe and the UK will have their orders fulfilled by Publisher Technology Solutions (PTS).

QML will be working with fulfillment companies in Australia, New Zealand, Asia, Africa, South America, and all other locations. Those books are on their way to the final fulfillment centers. Aetherworks will be overseeing final fulfillment in Australia and New Zealand, while VFI will oversee fulfillment in Asia and other Pacific areas.

As a reminder, on June 19th the fulfillment companies sent out final address checks for backers. If you did not get your final address check and you need to make changes to your address, please email [email protected] if you are in a QML-serviced area or use this contact form if you are in a PTS-serviced area.

Also, if you received a damaged product, please reach out to the fulfillment company overseeing your area.

If more than one week goes by without a response from the fulfillment company, please reach out to us at [email protected] so we can follow up with them.

It has been great seeing you all post about receiving your copies of Wages of Sin, Megadamage, and more. We hope you enjoy the books as much as we do. If you have any questions or problems, please reach out to my old pal Tyler at [email protected]. As always, thanks for reading and supporting TKG!

Project Update: Interloper Shipping Delayed Until September

Howdy backers,

My fulfillment partner has pushed back the estimated shipping dates further for Interloper from their warehouse to September due to running behind on previous fulfillment projects. I've gone in and unlocked the shipping addresses again so folks can make any location changes if they need to in the meantime.

This delay was unexpected for me and I'm sorry for the further wait. I would really have preferred to be able to hit the previous shipping estimate for you all. I'll keep you regularly updated with any project developments and additional news on shipping as it begins.

I'd also like to share the PDF of Rust Womb, my bonus brochure adventure set in the ruins of a genetics research lab filled with abandoned creatures with y'all.
