Hi everyone! We finally have an arrival date on when the books will get to us. I know things are just a tiny bit bonkers in the world right now, but we’re hoping that the books get to us without any issues.
The ETA is currently April 27 for it arrive to us. Once we’ve received the books, we’ll be working on shipping them all out to you.
We've received an updated printer proof copy of the game and she is perfect! I've already approved of it and the printer. They said we're in the queue and they should have all of the copies printed by March.
Huge thanks to our graphic designer Jon Merchant for getting this to the finish line and for putting up with all of my emails!
We'll keep you all updated on how things go with the printer and after this, the process is...
Wait for the shipment to arrive
SEND OUT THOSE COPIES TO YOU!
I'm so excited to get these books into your hands.
The printer proofs have arrived! We are going through them now and we’ll be getting in the queue for printing as soon as they’re ready.
Thanks for being so patient with us as we get this out the door - we had a death in the family, so we’re still reeling from that but hoping that things get better soon.
As soon as we receive the copies, we’ll be sending updates out here!
We just wanted to give you all an update on where things are right now. So far...
The manuscript: IS DONE!
The editing: IS DONE!
The interior chapter header graphics and front cover: IS DONE!
The layout: IS DONE! (Thanks Jon!) - This means the digital version is finished and ready to be shared as soon as we set up the BackerKit (which...is in progress - we're hitting a couple of tech issues, but we are currently handling them)
Manufacturing and printing: The printer version of the doc has been sent to our printing partner and we are currently in their work queue. Once we have the digital proofs and physical proofs signed off from Whatz Games, we'll be getting the full print run sent to us.
Shipping: Obviously, we need the games in our hands first, so this will be our final stage.
Other pledge level items: Forgery already exists, so we'll be shipping that out with Knockoff as soon as it's ready.
Here's a quick preview of the digital version:
Chapter from The Estate Sale
In the meantime, as we struggle with understanding how technology works, if you're in the Seattle area, I'll be going to Friday Afternoon Tea to do an immersive reading for the prequel, Forgery in August! There will be free small charms and printed demons given away during the event and we'll be supplying coloring pencils and pens for your demon as I read.
Friday Afternoon Tea: 4228 Stone Way N, Seattle, WA 98103 Date: Saturday August 9, 1pm-3pm
Banana will be at Friday Afternoon Tea
Thanks for your support and excited to get Knockoff out to you all!
