Update #5: Success!!!

Posted on May 13, 2010

In case you're not on Twitter, or missed our mad excited tweeting last night: WE MADE IT! The Crossed Genres "Science in My Fiction" contest reached 100% of our goal last night!

Thank you so much to everyone who's pledged so far. We were confident from the beginning that we'd make it, but it's a huge worry behind us now that we're there, and we can concentrate on having the contest results turn out brilliantly.

Of course, there are still 18 days left to the pledge drive! And the more pledges we get the better each copy will be! We know we'll never get anywhere near these guys (and we say kudos to them, we were one of their earlier supporters), we'd love to reach the point where we can add artwork to the print copies! If you'd like to see the final versions even more impressive, please keep spreading the word. And thanks again to everyone who's supported the contest so far!
