Project Update: Books delivered, addresses lock Oct. 1st! IRL Launch Party Oct. 3rd!
Hello hello, backers of Paradise Lust!
Fantastic news, faithful followers; our books have made landfall with our fulfillment friends White Squirrel in Everett, WA, and will begin fulfillment in the beginning of October! 📚 This means that, for those of you that already have your surveys completed and orders locked, your addresses will begin the 48-hour locking countdown on October 1st. This means you will have a 48 hour window to verify your address is still correct through your Backerkit survey, or update it if you've made changes to your address since its initial submission. If you have any issues preventing you from editing your address or you are unable to update your address due to unforeseen circumstances, please contact us at [email protected] ASAP or before October 1st. As of now, we still have 60+ people that need to complete their surveys, so please make sure those are filled out so we can deliver you gifts from on high!
Next up in exciting news: want a chance to see the book IRL and meet the editors behind Paradise Lust? If you live in the Seattle area, you're in luck: we'll be at Outsider Comics on October 3rd, 6PM for a Launch Party commemorating Paradise Lust's arrival and fulfillment!
Check out their Instagram for further news and updates, and we hope to see you there!
As a parting blessing: let us share with you visions from on high of a certain devil that comes bearing delicious debauchery...
Talk to you soon, and thank you all again for your support!
Best,
Iris Jay, Nero Villagallos O'Reilly, & Hye Mardikian

PROJECT UPDATE
Project Update: Mini-update: New PDF Distribution Link Up! Have YOU filled out your survey yet? 🙏 👼
Hello hello, backers!
Just a quick update here from our BackerKit orchestrator here: we were seeing folks having trouble accessing their PDFs right away, so we've changed/updated the distribution for both BUFFOMET and the PARADISE LUST digital PDFs! You should have received an extra email containing your download links, but comment below or contact Backerkit Support if you're still having trouble accessing these. We're also working on allowing people who wanted to add on physical items to their PDF-only tiers, so hang tight and we or Backerkit support will be in touch ASAP!
We still have ~25% of backers who need to respond to your survey, so fill those out ASAP to ensure your rewards are sent to you as soon as everything's ready to roll! Thanks again everyone, and have a wonderful rest of your week!

PROJECT UPDATE
Project Update: Surveys are ✨👼OUT👼✨! Rewards inbound!
Well, this update is what it says on the tin: our books are orbiting their landing port and soon bound for our shipping partners White Squirrel in Everett! The time we’ve been waiting for is here: backer surveys are being SENT OUT over the weekend, and your finalized digital BOOK OF SHADOWS PDFs are ready to download! 👼✨
Please fill out your emails and pay for your shipping ASAP so we can ensure that, once our books/add-ons are accounted for and all of White Squirrel’s shipping materials for this project are sorted, we can start up fulfillment and finally get these books into your hands! Paradise Lust matches its sibling book Buffomet at around a pound and a half/just about two pounds, and our White Squirrel friends have secured us the best possible shipping rates on the market for our INTL backers when packaging weight is also accounted for. At the end of the survey is where you’ll also find download links for your pledged PDFs, so don’t forget to access and add those to your digital library!
We estimate fulfillment to taper from mid-September into October, and we’ll be locking down addresses once White Squirrel tells us we’re ready to go. You’ll receive a 48 hour notice before addresses/surveys are locked, so if you have any special requests or factors that prevent you from confirming an address during this timeframe, shoot us an email at [email protected] and we’ll get you sorted from there.
That’s all for now! The last pieces of the campaign puzzle are our hand-cut bookmarks and Baphbino standees; we’ll have photos of those around the same time our books land in Everett. :) Look for future updates from us regarding ship-outs, address lock-ins, and as always: thank you for your initial support! We can’t wait for you to see these beauties in person, and be sure to fill out those surveys ASAP!

When is it estimated that surveys will go out? I saw end of July and haven’t received mine.
PROJECT UPDATE
Project Update: Books COMPLETE and en-route! Surveys inbound and book previews!
Howdy everyone!
After wrapping up production and binding, we’ve FINALLY received two advance copies of Paradise Lust just yesterday, and WOW, these books were worth the wait! Here’s some glamor shots of these beauties. Rejoice at that print quality!
The book’s front was treated with a rich-color treatment that tinted the spot UV over it, so not only do you see more hole-y detail, but also the reader gets to enjoy that soft-touch UV to boot!
Check out that spot color POP!
We genuinely can’t wait till you all see this book in person. It’s gonna knock the high hallelujah out of some folks.
As a result of our books’ imminent departure for the West Coast, BackerKit surveys are going up this coming week! Thanks for your patience through the delay on those; we started work on them this week, and we want to ensure our fulfillment partner White Squirrel is fully prepared to receive your beautiful books. You’ll have the option to upgrade for other add-ons like spare copies of the book or other standees/patches, and we’ll let you know well in advance before those surveys close!
Thanks again everyone, and have a wonderful weekend! 👼✨
Best,
