Dummies have arrived (Spray Edges Preview!)
If you know anybody who'd like to get in on this, our pre-order store is now open.
Meanwhile, we did say the next update wouldn't be until we got the advance copies, but da...
Thank you so much. It feels marvelous to let ourselves imagine holding this hot little book in our hands.
And we need just 16 more backers to unlock Bryn Hammond's bonus poetry. Heck at 85% of the way, it's not outlandish to think we'll unlock spray color edges!
Meanwhile all one hundred of our planned hardcovers have been claimed. We're going to talk to the printer about raising the print run, but probably only to 125 or so. The crowdfund definitely remains the time to grab one.
Alright, the campaign ends at noon EST this Saturday. Let's see how far we can take this caravan!
Thank you all so much for helping make our first book a reality!
The paper, the size, the spray color edges, the hardcovers in paperback dimensions with bookmark ribbons, the DOUBLE NOVELLA of it all, and of course the wonderful stories & art...from tip to tail, this is the book we wanted to make and make it we have.
This feels great!
Meanwhile Dariel and Bryn are hard at work on new novellas starring Orhan and Goatskin respectively. If all goes according to plan we'll be able to show you some exciting cover art for their separate, individual second volumes later this year.
Until then you're most welcome to join our Discord and participate in the vibrant & friendly community of our readers, as well as follow us on our socials (Facebook, Instagram, and Bluesky).
Once more with feeling - thank you so much for making this book possible.
Pardon us, due to a small mishap we sent out the Advance Reader Copy versions of the book last week, rather than the final version.
So today we've sent out a zip file called "DESS Complete Files" which contains the correct files for the book, as well as a second document containing our crowdfund exclusives (Bryn's four poems and Dariel's bonus Orhan short story!).
Both the book and the exclusives come in all three digital formats (ePub, PDF, and MOBI).
If you've already started reading, don't worry. The body text was finalized by the ARC stage, so the main differences in the final files have to do with presentation and - of course - removing the text in the front matter about it being an advanced review copy.
Okay, our next update will be about the books having arrived in Chicago! This, we swear.
In light of recent events and the chaos they've caused for many, many crowdfunds we felt this small update letting you know the books have made it from Hong Kong to the U.S. and...
...have not been slapped with some great big tariff...
...might be appreciated!
Meanwhile, we've been told by our printer that the books' ETA for arriving with our fulfillment person in Chicago has been pushed back to April 28th.
However one key part of the package has already arrived:
Printed & signed in the Phillipines, then shipped to Australia for Bryn to sign, THEN shipped to Chicago to be sent out with our books - these sticker bookplates have had quite a journey!
Our very next update will come when the books have arrived in Chicago and begun shipping out to you all. We can't wait to share that news with you!
