It's Been... One Week
It’s been a week since the campaign ended. I don’t know where that time has gone.
Firstly I want to say thank you again. It’s been a few years since my last crowdfunder and I...

Blood In The Margins, in the flesh!
I've spent this morning setting up the pledge manager with correct weights for all the items and I've sent it off to review. As soon as that's approved by Backerkit - which they say can take up to 2 days - I'll be able to send surveys out. These will allow you to select any add-ons you might want and provide your shipping address.
Once surveys are out I plan to leave them open for two weeks to give people time to fill them out. I'll send out reminders. Once they close I'll charge for shipping, and then I'll be able to get the physical books out to you.
Thanks again for your support on this project! I'm really excited to put these books in your hands.
Hi, I got the base of my order, but not the add on- I couldn’t find the email for discoverie of witches and it’s not linked to my itchio, so I didn’t get rid of it. Please help!

I've just had the pledge manager approved, which means I've sent out what Backerkit call a "Smoke Test". This sends surveys to 5% of you, just to enable me to catch any issues or identify any FAQs. Once responses start coming in and everything looks good, the surveys will go out to everyone else. So, if you've had a survey through this evening, go ahead and fill it out, and let me know if you have any issues.
I'm very pleased to say that I've just taken delivery of The Wonderfull Discoverie of Witches, The Interview, and the bookplates, which means that all I'm now waiting for is Blood In The Margins itself. Everything is looking great and I'm really happy with how they've all turned out.
THE INTERVIEW, The Wonderfull Discoverie of Witches, and a black-and-white bookplate
I'm particularly happy with how the bookplates have turned out. You can't see it in the photo but they've got a really pleasing texture to them and I think they're going to take ink really well if you like to write you name on them.
I'll update you as soon as Blood In The Margins arrives. Once I have everything in hand I'll be able to set things up in the Pledge Manager with accurate shipping information, and then I'll send out surveys. The consensus after my last update seems to be that people would prefer to stay on Backerkit rather than me using my store for fulfilment, so this is going to have to factor into the timeline because I need to charge everybody's cards at once. Realistically this likely means that physical fulfillment won't start to happen until June, but I'll keep you updated along the way.
Thanks for your patience over the past couple of weeks while I waited for funds to arrive.
Because this is such a simple campaign with so few rewards, there's very little need for complex surveys. To that end, today I've sent out download keys for Blood In The Margins to you all via itch.io. You should find an email in your inbox containing that link. (If you can't see it, check your spam folder!) If you also picked up The Wonderful Discoverie of Witches you'll find a download link to that game, too.
I'll be sending the print files off tomorrow after some final checks. I anticipate printing taking two weeks, but I'll let you know for sure once the order is in. Once I have the physical copies in hand I'll be able to weigh them and figure out how much postage is going to cost, and then I'll send out links to the pledge manager so you can finalise your orders. At that time you'll also have the opportunity to say "hey, I actually use a different email for itch, can you re-send that digital code to me?"
Thanks again for your support. I hope you enjoy the game!
