Hi everyone! I thought it would be fun to highlight the different genres I'll be including in this campaign between now and the campaign launch. I'm starting with fantasy, si...
Wow, y'all funded this campaign SO QUICKLY! I'm so glad y'all like these designs as much as I do and that we hit the initial goal in under 45 minutes. We're already starting to reach the stretch goals and I need your help to determine the next genres to unlock.
I don't want to flood your inboxes with updates, so I'm going to wait for things to settle down a little bit before sharing the survey results. You can expect to see another update from me early next week about which genres are unlocking.
It's time to feature my stretch goal designs, in no particular order, starting with LGBTQ+ Bookcase! The design for this pin is a cozy house shape with a sleepy cat inside it. I read a lot of LGBTQ+ literature in a lot of different genres. For my recommendations I decided to choose a couple of books that focus on queer stories. Do you have a favorite LGBTQ+ book?
Max's LGBTQ+ book recommendations are Real Queer America by Samantha Allen and Genderqueer by Maia Kobabe
Happy New Year! Pintopia is coming up fast and I'm working on getting everything ready to launch on the 23rd. In the meantime, I wanted to share one of my other projects, which just went live on Kickstarter!
I originally sat down to make this design with colored pencils in a sketchbook in the spring of 2022. I was frustrated with a recent push of laws to restricted gender affirming healthcare in the United States and wanted a simple sticker design to encourage advocacy and educating others.
Over the past few years I have sold over 1,000 stickers and donated hundreds more to local nonprofits serving the transgender community. I offer this design at a lower price than my other artwork, often selling stickers at cost, because the purpose of it will always be advocacy over profits.
My "Gender Affirming Healthcare Saves Lives" enamel pin campaign is now live on Kickstarter. Special Early Bird tiers will be available at a discounted price for the first 48 hours. CHECK OUT THE CAMPAIGN HERE!
Today's update features the second genre that will be unlock when the campaign's initial funding... Science Fiction! Science fiction offers a lot of diversity and settings, but I specifically went with a space and alien theme for these designs. I was inspired by authors like Ray Bradbury and Andy Weir (author of my favorite book!) for these designs. Drop your science fiction book recommendations in the comments below!
A friendly alien pops out from behind a rocket ship bookcase. The shelves are filled with futuristic technology and stories from galaxies far far away. The science fiction pins will unlock with the campaign's initial funding.
My recommendations in science fiction are Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir (my FAVORITE book) and To Paradise by Hanya Yanagihara.
