We are finally moving towards fulfillment everyone! It’s been way too long and I thank you for your ongoing patience! We’ll be sending out merch first and then ebooks and finally your physical books. With the changes to USPS, this is especially important because of surcharges. Media mail remains the same thankfully, so shipping books solo not only gets you products faster due to my delay, but it means it can stay reasonably priced. I hope you enjoy the bonus artwork funded by you!

Just a final update pre-merch shipment! Everything should be locked and loaded, and I will double check this week if any other pledge shipment payments failed. If not, we’re good to go.

I won’t show off the final pages unlocked from stretch goals, but see sneak peeks of the other two above and below.

Expect the ebooks after merch shipment (will come in an update with instructions) and print books shortly after that!

Thank you for your ongoing patience as I catch up after a wild 2025 (and what looks to be a wilder 2026).

Just a short update to show the art process for one of the extra interior illustrations funded by the campaign!



Working with Marcos is always a pleasure, and he has a good eye for detail.



Nicolette has many tricks up her sleeves while still being a bit of a damsel in distress. Next update we should be on our way to shipping merch, and then the books will be out soon!

After a bit of a mishap on my end with a misconfigured Stripe account, cards have been charged! I won’t be locking addresses until late March, when merch, etc., will start shipping out. Thank you! I’ll be showing off some of the products in the next update after they arrive on my doorstep.

Hi everyone! Just a heads up that cards will be charged on Friday, 2/13, during the next update. We are switching to weekly updates through fulfillment, and if you joined my newsletter, I wanted to give you all an FYI that those will start going out around March. Pack Queen was sent out by my collab campaign. I hope you enjoy my older shifter why choose if you backed that campaign. Until next Friday!
