We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on August 22, 2012.

Shipping complete!

Update #15 · Oct 26, 2012 · 13 comments

The last book has shipped!

Below is a photo of the shipping aftermath.  Lots of tape, envelopes, packages, and trips to the local shipping place.  I definitely underestimated the cost to ship a package to Australia, but as long as they arrive safely I'll be happy.  In fact, I shipped quite a few packages to Australia, it makes me want to do a convention there someday. 

Everyone who is outside of the U.S., make sure and allow plenty of time for your packages to come! It could be a couple weeks.  Don't be afraid to send me positive feedback.  And any negative feedback can be given in a tersely worded private message. I read them all!

SHIPPING HAS BEGUN!

Update #14 · Oct 23, 2012 · 10 comments

The books are here!

Finally, after sitting in customs for a few weeks the books arrived at my house this morning. I have everything all ready to ship so I will begin packing up books today.  I have about 170 packages to prep so it will take me a couple days at least.  I will send another update when the very last package goes out! That way if you're somewhere far away you'll know about how long your package might take.  Thanks for being patient everybody!  The book looks really great, I know you're going to love it!

Final Stretch GOAL+Office Tour!

Update #11 · Aug 21, 2012 · 11 comments

Hey Everybody! I've made a video thanking everyone for their support. I will make this text part  short since I'm attaching a video where I ramble on for far too long. (The video got a little squished horizontally when exporting it, sorry!)
Since I'm so close to 10K with a little over one day left I am adding one more stretch goal reward.
I've set up an airship postcard that everyone who pledges will receive in addition to the other rewards if we can get to 10K. 

Here is a chart

And here's the postcard!

And here's the video! If you're interested, there is a tour of my office after a brief intro.
