Please check your email for your BackerKit survey.
A Few Maintenance Updates:
Ghosting You Trinket – It was brought to my attention this morning that the word "for" accidentally appeared twice in the design. The duplicate word has now been removed, and the corrected version has been updated both in the add-ons section and with the manufacturer.
Paired Partner Collaboration Sticker – I have manually added the paired partner Millennial Club Sticker to eligible pledges. You should now see it listed on your confirmation page under your pledge items.
Survey Lockdown & Charges
Survey lockdown: July 10th, 2026
Shipping fees and any add-ons are charged on the lockdown date.
If you’re not ready by the 10th, no problem—just don’t complete the final confirmation step. You can return to your survey later.
Design choice guarantee deadline:July 15th After this date, you can still submit your survey, but we can’t guarantee all design selections. If we run out of one of your chosen designs while packing orders, we will reach out to you to choose a new design. It's very rare that this happens as we usually order more than extra of each pin.
Failed Pledge Charges
If your original pledge charge failed, you’ll still receive a survey on July 5th!
Add-Ons
Add-ons are optional and ship with your pledge (not separately).
Shipping Address Changes
You can update your address in the survey until lockdown.
After lockdown, email [email protected] as soon as possible for address changes.
Returned packages due to incorrect addresses will require a new shipping payment.
We’ll post a final address reminder before shipping begins.
Please take a few minutes to read through this entire update, as it contains important information regarding surveys, production timelines, and opportunities to purchase some of the survey add-on items at a discount.
Survey and manufacturing info for Admit One can be found in the Backer Only content section.
Inventory Clear Out Sale + New Pin Pre-Order Sale on Etsy
I currently have over 50 new and returning pin designs being manufactured and making their way to me over the coming months. In order to make room for all of these new arrivals, it's time for a much-needed inventory clean out!
Because of that, there are currently two sales happening in my Etsy shop.
For this campaign, I've created several new pin designs that are not part of the Admit One campaign. These designs will still be available in the survey add-ons section at their regular retail price.
However, if you're interested in these specific designs, you can purchase them through Etsy during this special pre-order event for 20% off retail pricing. There is one caveat: only a limited quantity of each design is available at this discounted price. Once those quantities sell out, they are gone.
The reason I'm offering these designs through Etsy at a discounted pre-order price is to help begin manufacturing sooner. Since these designs were not part of a crowdfunding campaign, I don't already have the funds on hand to immediately begin production. Additionally, survey funds are not collected right away, which would delay manufacturing even further.
By offering these designs through Etsy now, I'm hoping to begin production this week, which means you'll receive them sooner as well.
Both sales begin today and will run for approximately two weeks. No coupon code is necessary; all discounts have already been applied.
Please note that the new design pre-orders are limited in quantity, so they may sell out before the two-week sale period ends.
The votes are in, and the first fan-voted design has officially arrived! Say hello to the Monster Romance Book Club ticket. Whether you love tentacles, claws, fangs, horns, or your monsters with a surprising amount of emotional depth, this one is for you.
I’m also excited to share that the Cozy Fantasy ticket is currently in the works and should be revealed later today!
A quick note: you won’t see Monster Romance listed on the campaign page just yet. I’m waiting until Cozy Fantasy is complete so I can add both designs to the Subgenre Book Club section at the same time. However, both Monster Romance and Cozy Fantasy are officially unlocked and will be available as choices in the post-campaign survey.
The remaining poll winners are not far behind. The Mystery/Thriller Book Club and Never Ending TBR Book Club tickets are both planned to be added by Saturday.
Thank you all so much for voting, sharing your ideas, and helping shape this collection. Seeing which genres and reader identities everyone connects with has been one of my favorite parts of this campaign so far. Keep an eye out for more reveals coming soon!
I know it's been a little quiet from me over the last few days, but rest assured I'm still here and keeping a close eye on the campaign. I've spent the last few days preparing for an upcoming event, so I've been a bit offline while getting everything ready.
If you haven't already, please take a moment to vote in the open polls for the next designs. All of the designs selected through the polls will be revealed next week!
The first subgenre poll has officially closed, and the winner is Monster Romance Book Club. However, Cozy Fantasy Book Club came in almost tied, so I've decided to make both designs.
In the polls that are still open, Mystery & Thriller Book Club is currently leading the Core Genre category. Meanwhile, Never-Ending TBR Club is in the lead for Reader Identity with 42% of the vote.
I can definitely relate to that one—my TBR only seems to get longer. Somehow every time I finish a book, several more end up on the list, or on my TBR cart. 📚👀
Thank you all for continuing to vote, comment, and share your ideas. I love seeing which concepts resonate most with everyone, and I can't wait to reveal the next round of designs next week!
One more thing: I've decided to add a 500 Backer Community Reward to the campaign! I haven't decided exactly what the reward will be yet, but if we reach 500 backers, every qualifying pledge will receive this bonus item for free. I'll share more details once I've settled on the reward, but I wanted to give everyone something extra to work toward as we continue unlocking new designs together.
We're only a two days into the campaign and I'm blown away by the response so far. Thank you for helping make Admit One such a strong start! 🎉 Thanks to your support, we've already welcomed over 350+ members to the Reader's Club!
Early Bird Sticker!
Just a quick reminder that there are only 4 hours left to qualify for the free Early Bird sticker reward. If you've been thinking about joining the Reader's Club, now's the perfect time to grab your favorite tickets and claim the bonus sticker before the offer expires.
Help decide which reader identity should join the collection next!
If you'd like to help shape the future of the Reader's Club, be sure to cast your votes.
We reached the 300 backer reward!
🛍️ Etsy Discount Reminder
Don't forget that the Etsy discount code is still available! If you've been eyeing anything in my shop, be sure to take advantage of the code before it expires. It's a great way to pick up a few reader goodies while supporting the campaign. Use code ADMITONE to receive 40% off orders of $25 or more in my Etsy shop throughout the campaign.
📖 What Are You Reading Discussion

Here's my current rotation!
💻 A Small Design Update
I've spent the past several days doing a lot of computer work between campaign prep, updates, design work, and general business tasks. Unfortunately, my wrists and forearms have started letting me know they're not thrilled about it.
I'm taking a few days to rest and recover my wrists before diving back into drawing. The good news is that this won't affect the campaign, and I'll be back to sharing new ticket designs in just a few days.
In the meantime, keep the comments, suggestions, and poll votes coming. I'm keeping a running list of your ideas for future polls, future unlocks, and possibly even a Part 2 collection down the road.
✨ Meet Me at Magic & Meet Cutes
If you're local to the Raleigh area, I'll be vending at Magic & Meet Cutes hosted by Bright Side Books & Wine this Saturday, June 13th!
The vendor market is open to the public, so you're welcome to stop by and shop even if you don't have a ticket to the main event. I'll have a variety of Snarky Co. products available, and I'd love the opportunity to meet fellow readers, talk books, and hear which Reader's Club tickets you're most excited about.
As always, thank you for being here and helping build the Reader's Club one ticket at a time. 💜
