Project Update: When it comes to romance, it's HEA...or GTFO
The HEA is for Happy Ever After
In romance, we don't like it with somebody messes with the HEA.
I debated on the H for a little bit...thought maybe I'd do historical. I even thought about doing hockey.
But then it dawned on me...romance is all about the HEA. In a pin campaign celebrating the romance genre, how can I not include something that talks about the HEA?
Book genres are defined by certain characteristics.
Mysteries will have mystery.
Historicals will be set in the past.
Murder mysteries will involve murder.
And romance will involve a couple (**or throuple/more) falling in love and finding their HEA or HFN (Happy for Now). Romance lovers want that satisfying conclusion at the end, knowing the people they've come to know will find their person(s) and make it work. Things don't always work out in life and there aren't always HEAs.
But we can find them in some places - and a romance in one of those.
Every once in a while there's a kerfuffle in the online spaces known as romancelandia where a writer-typically newish to the romance genre-will announce they're putting a 'new' spin on the romance genre. This 'new spin' is a 'love story' without the HEA.
Romancelandia has spoken out, loudly, against this every time somebody tries to reinvent our quite lovely wheel.
A few years ago, during one of these blow-ups on twitter, one of these writers was insisting nobody could tell her what to write.
That's true. But likewise, she can't insist her 'love story without the HEA' is still a romance and think romance lovers are gonna be cool with it. Which is pretty much what I said. And I added something along the lines of "This is romance. It's HEA or GTFO."
When I was going through my ideas for the various letters, I kept going back to H and realized why. Because...well, we're talking romance.
It stops with the HEA.
And that's how I wanted to end this first pin campaign...with the HEA.
That being said, I'm going to have all pin designs, A-H, available for backers. G is mocked up and I'm discussing it with the artist, so you'll see the final in an update before I send out surveys.
The H...or the HEA, is already done.

We've unlocked all but 3 pins in the first six hours - which is incredible! - and opens up the possibility that we might be able to add some more cool options. So here are the possibilities we've thought of so far - help us decide which way to go once we get there!

Project Update: #10 - ✦⟡✦ Pins Arriving Soon + Adjusting Shipping Prices & Dates! ✦⟡✦
Hi everyone, I hope you had a great September!
I received an update earlier this week that the remake/missing pins are in the final stages of being packaged. Because of this, I will charge for shipping this week starting on Thursday (10/15/2026). Please ensure that your shipping address and payment methods are up to date. You will only receive your package only if both the backing order and shipment charges are completely paid for.
———SHIPMENT CHARGES ADJUSTMENTS———
Unfortunately, most shipment charges will be going up due to rising prices. Here are the updated, starting costs for these locations:
✦ United States (Domestic)*: Shipping starts at $7 USD
✦ Canada*: Shipping starts at $14 USD
✦ Mexico*: Shipping starts at $15 USD
✦ UK*: Shipping starts at $19.50 USD
✦ Australia and New Zealand*: Shipping starts at $21 USD
✦ Other countries*: Shipping starts at $20 USD
*Please keep in mind that the costs can go up depending on the package's weight. If you are international (outside of the US), please be aware that there may be extra charges coming from taxes and import/duty fees. Buyers are responsible for all tax and import/duty fees upon receiving their package.
I am really sorry for the price changes!
———LOCAL PICKUP———
I will allow local pick up for Anime Pasadena and Los Angeles Comic Con. You must contact me, either via the comments or email, that you want to do this option. You must also change your shipping address to the local pick up option. If you don't change it to local pickup, you will still be charged for shipping costs.
How do I change it to local pick up?
-- When editing your shipping address, select 'Local Pickup' under the country list.
If for some reason there are still issues with the pins and I cannot provide your complete order in-person, we can further discuss shipment options via email.
———WHEN SHIPMENTS WILL LEAVE———
I still need the rest of the pins to arrive and be graded. Since I addressed my issues with the bad pins to the manu, I doubt there will be another remake/big pause on the shipment schedule. However, if anything arises, I will of course make another update.
To give everyone a date they can look forward to, shipments should begin leaving at the start of November! If you are planning on moving within the next 6-8 weeks, please let me know. Ideally if all goes well, this project can be completely shipped out before December starts.
Smaller orders where the selected pin design(s) were not impacted and are already graded may be shipped out first. I already have the stickers and bookmarks (they look great!) ready to go. If you selected any pin designs that had to be remade or weren't produced enough before, it will take longer for your package to arrive.
———QUESTIONS AND FUTURE UPDATES———
Please let me know if you have any concerns, questions, or thoughts! My next update should include new pin images at the very least.

Project Update: New Pins, Leftover Favorites & a Birthday Sale!
Hey all,
The remaining pins from both the Firmly Grasp It and Secret Night Market campaigns have officially made their way to Etsy!
My birthday is October 10th, and we're celebrating with a little sale!
BIRTHDAY SALE | OCTOBER 9–14
- 25% OFF regularly priced enamel pins
- 10% OFF stickers, keychains, and bookmarks
- No coupon code necessary! Discounts are automatically applied at checkout.
A quick note about inventory: Quantities are currently limited for each pin design! I've set aside some inventory for the upcoming launch of the official Snarky Co. website and Shopify store, so not everything is available on Etsy right now.
That said, everything that's currently available on Etsy is included in the birthday sale, so it's a great time to grab some designs you've had your eye on!
Happy shopping, and thank you for continuing to support my little business!
Cheers,
Liz

Project Update: For backers with larger pledges- A small hiccup
Hi everyone!
(This update is actually only for people with larger pledges, so if you have received your pledge please disregard it! <3 )
Hi everyone!
In the past few days i received a few packages returned to sender for no apparent reason- these are all larger pledges, so i imagine it had something to do with customs charges. However, because none of these had any reason given for return, i have made the decision to redo the labels, pay postage again and use a different service than i had initially used.
This is to hopefully make it easier on you and save you some money.
So far, the affected pledges are:
22
93
128
175
177
182
Hopefully that is all! These will be reshipped this week, so if you have been expecting a pledge and havent received it yet, this may be why.
Thank you so much for your patience, i know you know there have been a ton of challenges with shipping this year and i really appreciate it! <3
Have a great weekend,
Saphira

Hi! My survey is showing a message that I have a remaining balance and Im confused because Ive never seen that message on a survey before. I dont think I got an email saying my card had declined. I tried to update my card and nothing happened. Should I be worried? Or will my card charged later?
