Hi! I'm Vanessa Perry, a dark fiction author. I write fantasy and horror, and it's safe to assume I will eventually dabble in sci-fi. I’m a later-in-life undergrad student majoring in English and plan to pursue my Master's in Creative Writing & Literature after. I am obsessed with studying literary theory and proving that the modern English student loves genre fiction and that it's worthy of academic study! I love folklore (especially folk religion) and, while I am reluctant to call myself such, I am indeed a folklorist by definition. More than all the things, I absolutely love books. I always have a book I’m reading nearby! My debut fantasy novel, "In Roaring She Shall Rise" will release in Fall 2025.

I've been a creator in the Computer Games industry for 18 years, and have shipped dozens of games and hundreds of updates.  Now I'm returning to my first gaming love, Table Top War Gaming.  Table Top War Gaming taught me the basics of game design, started my career and made me life long friendships. At Aged Dice we wanted to share the joy of this amazing hobby with as many people as possible so we've begun a journey to make TTWG much more affordable, accessible and sustainable while crafting games with rich, detailed, exciting settings with compelling and competitive rules! Mostly we just love making games!

Hello everyone! I'm Skylier and welcome to my corner of crowd funding. I've been working with a team of artists to bring to life an idea for comic book that I have called "Shark with a Shotgun". Up until now, I've been financing the artwork based on the script I wrote and am now hoping to finish out the required funds and advertise the, hopefully, soon first issue. I keep the project page updated and plan to release more information and promotion material for this original idea. Feel free to reach out with any questions.

Gretchen(also known by the shorter moniker of Gren) resides in Indiana with their cat, Towan. They can often be found scribbling away in their studio, surrounded by cat toys and empty bottles of Snapple. Some of their other hobbies include writing, reading, and as of right now, fountain pens. Gren explores many themes in their work. At the same time that Gren paints silly little creatures like opossums and raccoons, they also explore what it means to be human, what it means to have a body that constantly betrays you (see the Body Betrayal Collection), and how being marginalized can irrevocably influence someone as a person. Gren enjoys working with metaphors and fantasy, combining what isn’t with what is, what might be with what already has been.

3D2U.org is a husband and wife owned business that uses a mixture of woodworking, laser engraving, 3D printing, and other art tools to lovingly make wondrous items for you and your adventuring party. We enjoy making new nerdy creations, whether by our own design or by working with other small businesses to license designs. Ami and Jesse work hard to lovingly source, design, and build every item that they sell hoping that others will love them just as much as they do. Their two dogs, cat, and chickens often supervise their creative process and help remind them to take the appropriate break times for scritches and snacks.  3D2U.org has sold our crafts at various conventions and renaissance fairies over the past three years. These locations include the following: The New Jersey Renaissance Faire, the Delaware Renaissance Faire, Smithville Renaissance Faire, Wheaton Arts Fantasy Faire, Level Up Winter Retreat, Too Many Games Expo, and Contropolis NJ. We will also be visiting the Bucks Renaissance Faire, the Sparta Renaissance Faire, the New Lakewood Renaissance faire this year as well as revisiting the Delaware Renaissance Faire this fall!

Hi there!  My name is Hapybaka.  I am interested in arts and technology, especially in how to use technologies to make better art.  This includes 3D modeling (and 3D in general), programming (javascript and python), 3D printing and pretty much anything else I have enough time to learn. I always wanted to create my own products and crowdfunding is the most appropriate way of making them known to a larger audience. I am constantly learning new things and am very open to suggestions, questions and any other discussions, so don't be shy and feel free to write if you want to have a chat. Thank you for your interest, and have a good day! - Hapybaka

I also tried writing a book about dinosaurs and a pandemic, but then the actual pandemic happened and it got way too real.

I’ll be releasing the first work in that series, JAC.AL, in early 2025, with the second novella following shortly therafter.
