Happy Friday my Wolf Pack!

The Snow Paw plushies are in and I will be starting physical reward fulfillment today! Thank you so much for your patience! The first batch should go out by tomorrow or Monday at the latest if I don't get to the post office before they close.
 

A friend of mine is launch a crowdfund for the first Smokey Bear comic in over 50 years! A fun camping trip turns into a magical lesson in fire safety when Smokey Bear arrives.

When four kids head into Pine Ridge Forest for a weekend of camping fun, they’re ready for marshmallows, hot dogs, and adventure—but not for a surprise visit from the legendary Smokey Bear himself! After a careless mistake nearly leads to disaster, Smokey steps in to teach the campers the essential C.A.M.P. skills every adventurer needs to keep the wilderness safe. With help from the wise and magical Elder Tree, the kids learn how small choices can make a big difference. Packed with heart, humor, and forest-friendly lessons, Smokey #1 is an inspiring, educational comic that turns readers into Junior Rangers—one spark at a time.

Smokey Bear is an icon that has been around for more than 80 years. It's the first Smokey Bear comic in over 50 years! Click here to check it out!

Happy Tuesday my Wolf Pack!

I hope that you are having a great start to your week! For those of you who have filled out your fulfillment surveys, I have locked them in and you should have received an email from Backerkit with your Digital Rewards. If you didn't receive the email, please check your spam/junk boxes.

There are quite a few of you whose cards were declined for the shipping and/or add-ons. Please double check that, so you can receive your Digital and/or Physical rewards.

For those of you who have not yet filled out your rewards, please do, so that you can receive your Digital and/or Physical rewards.

From my last communication with the Skelton Crew, my rep said that the Snow Paw plushies should arrive to me the week of June 23rd, provided that everything goes smoothly in customs. So, we are still on track for July fulfillment. Most of the other physical bonus rewards have arrived. The remaining items should be arriving later this week or early next week.

If you love the Snow Paw plushie then you might like the comic book that inspired her. This summer I will be launching a Kickstarter for Snow Paw #4, which is the last issue of the first story arc. So, you don't want to miss this action packed finale! All of the variant covers are done. We are just waiting on Mog Park to finish interior line art and Bruna Costa to finish coloring the pages to then handover to Dave Lentz for lettering. In the meantime, enjoy these sneak peeks at the covers by Mog Park, Fang Fang, and Alsares Lynx.

The prelaunch page is live, so click here if you would like to be notified when the campaign goes live!

Thank you so much for taking this creative journey with me! Have a great rest of your day!

Happy Friday my Wolf Pack!

Today I have been emailing back and forth with the Skelton Crew. The plushies are done and being prepared to ship out from China next week once the Skelton Crew receives my check, which I just dropped off at the post office this afternoon. The Skelton crew said when they will send me some pictures of the plushies next week with the next shipping update. 

In case you were wondering if the Tariffs we causing me issues. Well, yes, it cost me over $1000 more in fees. I'm not happy about it, but at least we are moving along with shipping, so I can get your your rewards this July as promised.

Speaking of rewards, there are still a few of you who have to fill out your rewards surveys. Make sure you get your survey filled out so you can receive your rewards.  Remember to check your spam/junk boxes if you don't see the email in your Inbox.

Happy Thursday my Wolf Pack!

I don't really have much to update you all with today, but I just wanted to know that my rep from the Skelton Crew has told me that the Snow Paw Plushies are tentatively set to finish sewing in late April/early May.

Then from there they will be packed up and put on a freight ship from China to the US Port. Once they clear customs they will be sent cross country on a truck to my house. We are estimating a late June/Early July arrival. So, we are still on track to deliver your rewards on time!

There are still a few of you who have to fill out your rewards surveys. Make sure you get your survey filled out so you can receive your rewards.  Remember to check your spam/junk boxes if you don't see the email in your Inbox.

Happy Thursday my Wolf Pack!

Great news, the funds are in and BackerKit has approved the fulfillment survey! Last week, I sent the deposit check off to the Skelton Crew to get started on the Snow Paw 13" Plushies and now it's time for fulfillment surveys! Yesterday, I sent out the Smoke Test to a random 5% of backers across all pledge levels, and this morning I just sent out the rest of the surveys. Remember to check your spam/junk boxes if you don't see the email in your Inbox.
