We're down to shipping out all of the Steve Jackson Games titles that some of you are receiving as part of your rewards. Amy reports that all of the other rewards have shipped, so please contact me ([email protected]) if you don't have your Dank & Dark rewards by April 15th.

I've also prepared the DriveThruRPG $0 coupon codes. Please look below to add Dank & Dark to your DriveThruRPG library. (These are the same PDFs we released through BackerKit last fall, except now you can include them in your DTRPG library if you wish.)

Next I'll work with with Steve Jackson Games to ship any of their titles that you may have selected. I'll post another update once that's finished.

Thank you for your patience as we wrap this up. I hope those of you who have received the Dank & Dark book are happy with the final product. I know I had fun creating it!

And now I wanna make a GM screen for it. Likely a three-panel 7" x 7" screen (so it matches the size of the book) with . . . well, that's the question. What would you like to see on a screen if I were to create one? I have a few ideas, but I'd love to know what you think would make for a fun bit of info to add to a screen.

TL;DR - All PDFs were delivered last fall. Physical rewards are now shipping. Any add-ons and titles other than Dank & Dark will ship after the books and bookmarks have left the building.

Welcome to the end of February. When I initially set a March 2026 delivery date for this project, I thought everything would be wrapped up long before then.
I was terribly wrong.

Numerous issues have plagued this project, and it has become a source of severe and constant anxiety and stress. If there's one thing I've not yet mastered, it's fulfillment of physical rewards. Which is unfortunate, because I love to play with formats and experiment with new ideas, but that only works if I can find a way to smoothly (and quickly) fulfill projects.

It isn't that anyone did anything wrong with this project, but simply that everyone working on it is also juggling full-time jobs, lives, and the headaches that come with them in 2026. And there are a lot of headaches in 2026.

While I could use a fulfillment service, I'm desperately trying to avoid it because, to be completely blunt, it's too expensive for the scale at which I operate. I have no desire at all to deal with distribution sales – and I have no mechanism in place to handle post-project sales – so there are no economies of scale advantages to be had. If I want to keep the prices as low as possible (and I'm already worried with every single project that I am asking too much for my work), it means keeping the packing and shipping processes out of dedicated fulfillment services.

I should have posted this update earlier, but each time I started to draft something, I spiraled into a mental wreck that made it impossible to accomplish anything that day. (This post is basically the last work I'll finish today; I'm fried.)

Of course, none of this matters. If I'm going to keep creating things (which I want to do), I will either have to stop offering any physical items and focus solely on digital rewards, or get better at building big blocks of time into the schedule for fulfillment.

What's next?
Shipments continue to hit the postal service. While I wish I could give a date by which this process will be completed, I can't. Please know that everything is moving and will be delivered as quickly as possible. If you were expecting more than just the Dank & Dark book and bookmarks, those other items will ship in the future.

Thank you not only for your support of the work, but also for your patience as we work through fulfillment. I have not earned and do not deserve your patience, but I am quite grateful for it. Thank you.
