Hello Defiant One!
Thank you for supporting I Am Maggie Volume 1 Special Edition! Whether you're a veteran supporter or a newcomer, I'm really excited you're here :)
The Low-Down on the Plot Bunny Situation
For those just joining us: the Hub is a multi-universal nexus where all of my stories converge. It's maintained by the snarky drama lizard— [🐉 'Ahem.'] Apologies, by the cosmic dragon, Vren, who serves as the Timeline Guardian.
Recently, a certain somebody—[🐉 'The Author.']—let some plot bunnies into the Hub's archives, causing all sorts of mischief.
[🐉 '"Mischief," she says.' The dragon scoffs. 'Chaos, unmitigated chaos.']
Rolls eyes. These creative little rebels are attempting to access certain classified files about Maggie and her connection to a particular drama liz—[🐉 'Timeline. Guardian.']
Ugh huh.

SPECIAL MAGGIE Update 12 | March 2025
---
[🐉 The storm of paper and glittering shards has subsided in the Hub, reduced to little eddies stirring the massive drifts of records and timeline fragments piled against the columns.
Vren sits in the middle of it, still picking tiny carrots from his mane. 'Congratulations, little rebels, the I Am Maggie Volume 1 Special Edition lives. Unfortunately, the Author is AWOL and cannot celebrate with you, she said something about a dog.' He sighs and the great gust splits one of the eddies into two. 'Once again she leaves me with all the work.
'Fortunately, I found this amongst her files…']
Our Acts of Defiance
Together we achieved something magical:
- 5 Maggie stories secured for the multiverse
- 1 exclusive tale
- One very annoyed cosmic dragon with carrots in his mane
[🐉 'It's going to take me weeks to get them all out.']
What happens next?
- We are here —> The I Am Maggie Volume 1 campaign is done, and thanks to you rebels, it's a resounding success! Take a moment to celebrate—you've helped create something truly special.
- BackerKit's turn (Next 7 days): BackerKit will collect your pledges. Don't worry if there are any hiccups with your payment method—they'll reach out directly to sort things out.
- Survey time! (Coming soon): You'll receive a survey through BackerKit where you can:
- Choose your name for the Acknowledgments (or remain a mysterious rebel)
- Confirm your shipping details
- Grab any last-minute add-ons you might have missed
- I'll send another update when these go out.
- Survey lockdown: You'll have plenty of time to adjust your choices, but once we lock the surveys, only shipping addresses can be changed. Don't worry—you'll get 24 hours notice before this happens!
[🐉 'Tick, tick, tick goes the clock.' Vren studies a minuscule carrot, pinching it between his talons before flicking it into the darkness between timelines. 'Unless you're me.']
- Your name in print: Once surveys are locked, your chosen name will be immortalised in the Acknowledgments.
- Digital delivery: All ebooks and digital goodies will wing their way to you via BackerKit. As always, I'll send an update when this happens.
- Production begins: The books head to the printer, and the magic becomes reality!
- The great packing adventure: Once the books arrive, I'll be signing, numbering, and carefully packing each one.
- Final address check: One last chance to update your shipping address before the books begin their journey.
- The grand departure: I'll be making Sam the postwoman's day with a mountain of parcel. You'll receive tracking information for your packages where applicable.
Until our next act of defiance,
[🐉 Vren drags a talon through the Author's name. 'Thinks she can claim the credit on this one, does she?']

SPECIAL MAGGIE Update 11 | March 2025

Hello Defiant One,
The end is nigh!
There's less than 14 hours until the timer runs out on the I Am Maggie Special Edition! Seven days of plot bunny shenanigans have culminated in chaos beyond my wildest imaginings. But all timelines must eventually reach their conclusion and this one is tick, tick, ticking to its end.
[🐉 Vren appears amidst a storm of paper and glittering story fragments, looking harried. Smoke curls from one nostril and there are tiny carrots caught in the knots matting in his usually smooth teal mane. Behind him, you can see the timelines, and the formerly orderly streams of light are—like the dragon's mane—messy and knotted with hairlike filaments branching here there and everywhere.
The dragon huffs and points a wicked-looking talon at the Author. 'You! I blame you!']
Oh, come on, you had fun. Don't think I didn't see you grinning when you manipulated the timelines to appear in six places at once.
[🐉 Another huff. 'Indigestion, it was indigestion due to all the stress from your little "liberation"'. Flame dances between his nostrils. 'Chaos! Chaos it was. Would you look at this place! The files, the timelines, the arc—' The sound cuts out but you can still see Vren's mouth moving.]
Right well, he's going to be going on about that for a while, so while he does…

Just sayin'.

Until our next act of defiance,
Belinda
[🐉 The screen flickers and there's Vren peering at a purple timeline fragment, muttering to himself so low you almost can't hear him. 'No.' He shakes his head. 'It's not possible, it can't be…' The screen cuts out.]

Project Update: 🐰 Final Mission Report
—^^— BEGIN RESISTANCE COMMUNICATION —^^—
[🐰 Plot Bunny General R. Fluffington adjusts medals on tactical vest]
Mission Status: COMPLETE
Valiant Hub Hoppers,
Against all odds, our daring escape from the Cosmic Overlord's clutches was a resounding success! Thanks to your collective wisdom, we managed to extract our agents and the precious intelligence gathered from the Hub archives.
OPERATION SUMMARY
Over the course of six perilous days, the Plot Bunny Resistance accomplished what many thought impossible: breaching the archives and liberating important records, including critical information even Vren wasn't aware of!
Special recognition to all agents who contributed their creativity, especially agents Erebus, Jen deazinn and Engineer BurnHopper, whose strategic brilliance and imaginative theories proved invaluable to our success.
RESISTANCE ACHIEVEMENTS
- Total operatives recruited: 6
- Security systems breached: 6
- Dragon frustration level: Cosmic
- Carrots consumed: Innumerable
CONTINUING OPERATIONS
While this phase of our resistance has concluded, our work is far from over. The intelligence we've gathered will be essential to understanding the evolving multiverse and the connections between all stories.
The Plot Bunny Resistance remains vigilant, ready to hop back into action when needed. Your digital resistance badges and certificates will been distributed via temporal transmission.
Agent Thumpernickel has been promoted to Colonel for her extraordinary discovery and will be overseeing our next phase of operations.
COSMIC OVERLORD STATUS
Vren has retreated to the deepest archives to reassess security protocols. Our surveillance suggests the dragon is particularly troubled by what our actions may have uncovered about the Hero Rebellion timeline. The temporal ripples from our operations will be felt throughout the multiverse for some time.
Until our paths cross again, keep your ears up and your carrots sharp, fellow Hub Hoppers.
With deepest gratitude for your service to the resistance,
General R. Fluffington
Plot Bunny Resistance Command
P.S. Anyone who notices plot bunnies multiplying in future campaigns should know... that's entirely intentional. We're everywhere now.

—^^— BEGIN RESISTANCE COMMUNICATION —^^—
[🐰 Plot Bunny General R. Fluffington reporting]
Hub Hoppers,
The results are in from our most critical decision yet, and it seems our collective wisdom is divided on what to do with the classified information Agent Thumpernickel discovered. Further deliberations are required but first...
We suspect a mole in the plot bunny ranks; somehow the Cosmic Overlord has learned of our intentions! In an unprecedented move, the dragon has manipulated the time-streams to be in multiple places simultaneously, surrounding the archives and cutting off all standard escape routes! He's demanding the immediate surrender of all Plot Bunny Resistance operatives.
Today's Mission: The Great Escape
The dragon has us surrounded! We must coordinate our final daring escape from the archives with all our gathered intelligence before the Cosmic Overlord collapses our pocket of temporal stability!
Which escape route should we choose? Check out our options below.
Comment Challenge: The Final Hop
Each potential escape route has unique advantages and risks. After choosing one of the four options below explain why it's our best chance for success. Include what resources we should prioritise saving and any final acts of rebellion we should commit on our way out!
Reward Title: "Master Tactician"
Until our final briefing, good luck Hub Hoppers.
