Hello, backers—

The Glimmering Valley is in our warehouses and beginning to fulfill! And that’s not all: during the campaign, you unlocked the The Glimmering Valley Player’s Guide. It’s a reward for every backer getting The Glimmering Valley. We’re fulfilling that as well.

If The Glimmering Valley is among your rewards, check your email for your redemption instructions for these two items. (For an overview of the process, see our previous update.)

We have more good news, but first, a caveat. In this age of constrained supply chains and frequent freight delays, it’s difficult to predict or control when our printers and other vendors will deliver products to us. Due to factors outside our control, we’ve received several large shipments in a short period of time—items that should have been received over the course of two or three months. As a result, we have multiple large fulfillments going on at the same time.

We are a small company, with a limited number of employees who are all real human beings. We’re putting in long hours, and have brought in temp workers, but the volume of orders is very high. We’ll do everything we can to ship your order quickly, but it’s best to expect delays. Thank you in advance for your patience as it may take longer than we’d like to get your order out to you.

Now have a look at this!

That’s a first-off-the-presses copy of the deluxe edition of The Weird, and holy cat crackers is it beautiful. The effect of the iridescent foil cover, beneath the transparent dust jacket, will give this tome a place of pride on any bookshelf. (Photos definitely don't do it justice.) You’re going to love it!

In past years, we’ve always fulfilled deluxe books at the same time as the standard edition, but, again, we live in trying times. But the good news is that we expect to be able to fulfill this within a few weeks—we’ll let you know when it starts!

Thanks again for your support!
