This is not my first time publishing a Tarot Deck that many people would ask, "is it really a tarot deck?"
For me, the Misery Tarot was birthed from the heart of the Tarot. But aside from having suits and a Major Arcana grouping, what makes it a tarot deck? Not a lot, perhaps. But for me, it feels like a tarot deck. It works like one, it reads like one. Though the subjects, advice, and topics of the cards are different, certainly.
Air out your grievances and pedantry here in the market square!
There are still 18 surveys left incomplete, so if you haven't filled yours out, please do! If you've lost it, just reach out to me at [email protected] and I can send you a new link.
I just got the new Lesbians in Space stickers, keychains, and pins from the amazing Geek Girl Stuff this weekend, and I'm busy getting everything sorted and ready to mail out!
- If you only got things that go in an envelope (oracle cards, stickers) then your envelope is going out this week to domestic US and international. - If you only got physical goodies (cards, stickers, keychains, pins, posters, or T-shirts) and released books, those are also going out this week to domestic US and international. - If you got goodies but also got the Lesbians in Space paperback or hardback and are domestic US, then I will also be shipping out your goodies now and Lesbians in Space when it releases. - If you got goodies not in an envelope and the Lesbians in Space paperback or hardback and are NOT domestic US, then I will be shipping out your entire package when Lesbians in Space releases in June 2025 (sorry, international shipping is very expensive!)
But look at these amazing goodies from Geek Girl Stuff! I tried to capture the holographic stickers, but they're even better in person!

Hope everyone is doing well, and remember to send your stories in before midnight on December 31st, 2024! That's less than a month now...
I hope everyone in the US had a pleasant Thanksgiving!
I will be mailing rewards for the case laminates this week. Yahoo! I'm so excited!
IF YOU ARE IN CANADA PLEASE READ: I have at least one order to Canada. Because of the strike, I cannot mail USPS as planned. I can either delay until after the strike (I'll be watching the news for updates) or I can ship UPS. I heard there could be some problems with customs with UPS. I don't want to cause you any problems receiving your rewards. Feel free to reach out to me by replying to this email or you can comment on the post. If I don't hear from you, I'll just delay the shipping until the strike is over.
If you have gotten your orders, yay! Some of the overseas packages are marked as "delivered" on my side but that only means they reached customs on your side. So hopefully they'll get there soon!
I'll be adding emails of those who purchased books to my author updates email list. Feel free to opt out by unsubscribing. I just want to be able to keep you in the loop on more updates as I progress toward publication for the next book Chains of Deceit! (Which already has 40k words!) I'll probably start you at the beginning of the year or when everyone's rewards have been shipped.
Okay, working on the prequel novella and it's glorious! I'm excited to share this with you. It ended up being longer than anticipated and I will likely chop it into three parts so that I can start getting those out to you soon!
Coming soon: Playlist--I'm working on getting those compiled in a way to share and digital download of the piano arrangement, which sounds amazing BTW!
First note is that I was initially going to be releasing the surveys at the end of this month, but I've decided to wait as this time of year is just SO busy they are likely to get lost in the flurry of emails from people trying to sell you stuff! So I will be waiting till early January.
Here are some new aliens! More Matt Dixon ones. Three naughty culprits of nefarious misdeeds! Just three to do now and then I can work hard on the rest of the writing and editing for the book. SO exciting!
I hope you all have a fantastic December - I will not be making any updates now until January, but don't worry that doesn't mean there's nothing going on!
I have 3 alien paintings remaining, one of whom is Sheriff Pongo Gibnits!
In January I will send through some fun snippets from the writing as well. I'm hoping to be sending the books out by end of February. Early March at the absolute latest, so be sure to fulfil your surveys asap when it comes!
