Project Update: Foxwright Apothecary is packed and ready to ship!
09/01/2026

Hi all! A few things to talk about in this update. The first, and biggest, is that the Foxwright Apothecary is fully packed, every pin that you're owed is in a mailer with your name on it!
A few other things still need to be mentioned: Social media updates, timelines, a certain ghostie, and some future plans to get things out there.
Social media: I said that I would make a post at least every other day on X and TikTok. For X, my account was fairly immediately reported and suspended for impersonating Crow. I appealed, got the account back, and made a post explaining that there was no impersonation. Anyways, you'll never guess what came next - so X is out for now.
TikTok, on the other hand, is much more my fault. I made posts every other day for I believe five posts, before my own health issues prevented me. I won't go into details, but I was bedridden at best for a lot of that. Either way, I'll make a post soon, as a friend has agreed to film.
Timelines: I'll be honest, I'm not sure exactly what the timelines are looking like right now. We should be able to pull funds to start shipping things out very soon, starting with backers who did not support Pride Potions first (more on why later). I want to make sure that I actually know what I'm doing with this - if I mis-deliver 470 mailers, that's a lot more hurt than 10. Once I know for sure how to handle the website, mailing addresses, postal services, etc. then I'll send the rest. I anticipate that we'll be done shipping Foxwright Apothecary by the end of this month!
Pride Potion stuff will be sent with a lot of the Foxwright Apothecary, so if you ordered from both, (unless you ordered a LOT, as these mailers can only fit so much), then you'll get them together. Likewise, a lot of Pride Potions should also be sent by the end of this month!
Decadent Orchard... is a bit daunting. I need to get all of it, organize all of it, pack, you get it. Either way, I don't know a timeline on it. I hope to start before November, but I really don't know. I expect to be done with everything by the end of this year!
Those who only supported Foxwright Apothecary but not Pride Potions will be getting their packages first, frankly because it's less logitical strain while I experience the learning curve.
Ghostie: Crow has handed all but two of the ghosties off to me to ship, with the last two coming shortly. I'll send those with Foxwright Apothecary. Simple as.
TikTok shop and Etsy shop: I have a functional, though unremarkable TikTok Shop. I'm in the process of adding more items to be sold, but at the moment I only have the health potion pin listed. Reviewing takes time, and so do good product photos.
IMPORTANT: If you do not want more pins than you have already previously ordered, then do not order from the TikTok Shop! The TikTok Shop is entirely and fully for helping me have a healthy distribution of the product while I work almost for free. Do not order if you do not want more. You will get your products either way. TikTok Shop is not intended for Backers, (but feel free to check it out, order from it, share it, I won't complain!).
Other Distribution: I have some friends in the Maryland area, and I'm in Chicago myself. Likewise, I intend to send a bulk package to my Maryland friend to sell on their own time, campuses, comic shops, etc.
For me, I intend to sell mostly the same. I'll ask local small retailers if they would like to sell some of the surplus products.
Lastly, I want to apologize for not responding here after about a day and a half. I got caught up in packing, and carefully wording responses is very time consuming and draining for those not trained in PR, (me). I have a friend, (the same one who will help me film the update videos), who has voulenteered to help respond to some comments and bring important ones to my attention. He's choosing to go by C for now, so expect to see him around.
Thank you for supporting this campaign. It couldn't have been done without you, and we haven't forgotten that. Ignore that I wasn't here for that part. Peace and love until next time!
