The final countdown has arrived!

Thank you to everyone for taking a chance on Closet Monsters and all the support you've given over the past month.  Even though the goal was not reached, the project will keep moving ahead and will be considering the idea of re-launching the book here on Kickstarter.

For those of you that wish to be kept updated about the progress of Closet Monsters, keep an eye on my website AND Facebook pages.  You can also email me at: jasonfelix@msn.com.  All the best to you for 2013.

Sincerely,

-Jason Felix

Less than 2 days remaining! YIKES!!! We still far behind the goal set ahead, but never say never! Thanks to all for pledging thus far and last call:

  • If you know of someone who has intentions of pledging, now will be a great time to chip in!
  • If you have pledged OR not able to pledge, I could definitely could use the help by spreading the word.

Happy New Years! 2013 is officially here.

Just wish to issue a special thanks to all for pledging, supporting, and giving my book a chance!

All the best,

-Jason

New Stretch reward added Dec 31th 2012!

Happy New Years Eve eveyone!

PRINTS exclusive to Kickstarter after breaching $5000 pledging- For all current pledges of $19 and up you'll receive a lovely art print from the book. All we need to do is go beyond the $5k mark and many will be rewarded. If you have pledged all ready, tell your friend to get them on board. If you have not pledged, now will be a great time to jump in!

The artwork is yet to be determined other than to say, it will be a print of the best monster YET to be illustrated.  I'll be fun and great piece, promise.

For those whom has pledged for a handmade print, fear not as this will be different artwork and not hand-printed.

Be well everyone!

Thank you,

-Jason
