We hit the stretch goal i wasn't ever sure we'd reach. So we are getting that conventional cover, and well, what's a campaign without stretch goals? So, let's have some new ones. Because this train is still chugging and we're not stopping until we experience an exciting derailment or fly off the bridge in we didn't notice was under construction.
Without further ado... COMIC.
oh yeah. it's all coming together
The fantastic Renzo is doing a helluva rush job to bring a 2 page comic "teaser" for our final week. Get yer meet-cute here! These are obviously just the rough sketches. I'm so excited to see how this turns out. Honestly, it looks bad as hell already, rough though it may be.
But 2 pages is all i can pull by myself right now. If we want MORE, then i'm gonna need MORE. Smash those piggy banks, call that aunt that you hate, tell her this helps starving walruses in Kamchatka, that if she buys this book she'll own a star, whatever the hell you want. Because I WANT COMICS.
Here is your mission, should you choose to accept it.
Last but not least, i want to shout out some of our underfunded projects. 16/22 projects in the Book Bazaar have funded, which is absolutely fantastic, but i want 22/22!! So here are 3 i think deserve some special attention. Space Wizard Science Fantasy should be enough on name alone to get you in there. A small publisher with a fantastic track record of weird, queer, and fun books, and this time there's SEVEN TO CHOOSE FROM. GET IN THERE NYEAOW.
Fairy Seasons is a collection of dark poetry and short stories by my lovely colleague Machelle, who has been promoting the HELL out of the bazaar and giving everyone a little taste of the spotlight. NOW SHINE THE HELL ON HER.
Gems and Stars Flowers Audiobook is a sweet scifi romance that ALREADY EXISTS. now that's nice. No waiting! Well, you have to wait for the audiobook which DOESN'T EXIST. YET. So get them words in your damn ears. Let them slither down your aural canals deep into your brain like some sort of literary yrrk.
WE HAVE FOUGHT HARD. WE HAVE FOUGHT WELL. But the war against tedium continues! Onwards, I say, to glory! To valor! To VICTORY.
Oh also there will be another surprise update on wednesday for the backers and BACKERS ONLY so become one if you aren't already. Trust me.
