Project Update: December Update: Finish Your Cosplay!
Hello, wonderful backers and supporters!
I've been making great progress on Finish Your Cosplay! this month. I completed an extensive round of changes, edited all guest essays, and sent the full manuscript for its final round of copy editing.
I'm particularly excted about the guest essays; we're going to have a diverse collection of makers included in the book, and they all have such wonderful and valuable insights about making through both mental and physical troubles.
In January, FYC! will spend time with two sensitivity readers. These readers will be looking for anything the essayists or I have said that's harmful to folks with mental or physical productivity struggles. This step is very important to me; I want this book to be helpful for all kinds of folks.
So, for now, FYC! is mostly out of my hands for another month! I'll see you mid-January, hopefully with some updates on merch and the sensitivity reads.
In the meantime, if you or someone you know missed the campaign but is still interested in preordering goodies, you can check out my preorder store here.
Keep on makin'!

Project Update: here's the production schedule for 💚 Finish Your Cosplay! 💚
Hi, everyone! Please excuse me for the very delayed post-campaign update. I got it in my head that who the heck cares about updates for Finish Your Cosplay!... imposter syndrome strikes at strange times 💚
Currently, I'm aiming for Finish Your Cosplay! to be sent to you by May 1, 2025. Of course, this is a goal based off of estimated timelines. Anything could happen, but this is my plan 🎊 For more details, read on!
⭐ November 2024: Finish Your Cosplay! is currently on a break as I wait for the contributors to write their essays. These are due November 30.
⭐ December 2024: In December, I'll be editing the guest essays and doing a final refinement pass on the main manuscript.
⭐ January 2025: In January, Finish Your Cosplay! will spend time with an editor and sensitivity reader! (And I once again get a break from it 👀)
⭐ February 2025: February is layout time! I'm designing FYC! myself. Yes, it will be a lot of work. But it's my baby 🤷♀️
⭐ March 2025: Hopefully, FYC! will get sent to the printer right after the Lunar New Year wraps up. Woo!
Thank you all so much for your support of me and of Finish Your Cosplay!. I am so so so so sososososo excited to make it useful and beautiful and then to get it into your hands!
Love,
