Kickstarter

Greetings everybody! 

Wow, it's been a year (we started it at the end of the 27th so I count the 28th as our start date) since we started this venture known as the Women of Geekdom 2013 Calendar. It's been a crazy roller coaster, right? But in the end we produced a fantastic product that showcased 11 great ladies and promoted a fantastic message of the diversity in female fan bases. 

Because of the amazing generosity of each of YOU, we were able to create THE MOST successful Calendar project in the history of Kickstarter. Because of YOU, we were able to bring a crazy idea to life in a way we could have never imagined. And because of YOU, we have the opportunity to make some friendships that will last a lifetime. It's been a truly humbling year, through all the crazy mixups and successes you've stood by us through it all and for that we all here on the project want to say: Thank you. 

Everybody should have their orders now (posters notwithstanding) and enjoying the crazy awesome that was this project. The posters are being shipped as money comes in so please be patient (they're costing around $15 per poster to ship). As we get the funds in the posters go out. We expect them to finish up soon. 

But here we are, end of the road. I hope you guys enjoyed the journey and seeing the results! We can't believe we made it, but we did. And to quote a lil known show: "We did the impossible, and that makes us mighty". Keep supporting independent project and keep up with all of us on twitter and the various podcasts, youtube channels, and news sites we work with. The future is bright indeed and we can never thank you for the faith you put in this idea. So until next time, Take Care

Hi Everybody!

So by this point nearly all of you should have received your Calendars and SWAG from the Women of Geekdom! Our two highest tiers (500 and 5,000) are about to go out as well as a few stragglers who are sending in their surveys currently. 

First, I hope you guys love the final product as much as we do! It was an absolute blast making this Calendar and we strove to make it the highest quality product we could make. I think it shows and I think you'll all love the end result. 

Second, the Posters should be arriving back from the printers in the next week and will be shipped out quickly thereafter. Thanks for being patient on this. It was tricky because our first batch had similar issues and we wanted to ensure a high quality product. If you missed out on this run of posters, do not worry! Even though these posters are Kickstarter exclusives, we are creating a second set of posters with all new photos that you can order from our website shortly via cafèpress. That way, those who got in early still get a unique product that will not be replicated and we can still meet the demand of those who want a poster. 

Third, the Wallpapers and Podcast are going to be released shortly. I will send out emails to each tier with the links to these rewards. The Wallpaper Bundle will include images from our website as well as new artwork exclusive to these rewards. As with any link, please keep these private. This is your reward, so make sure to not share the link when it's released. The Podcast is a different story. This was recorded the weekend we shot the Calendar and had some crazy audio issues, but after spending weeks and weeks on cleaning it up - the recording is almost ready! Apologies for the delay, but we had to do some special magic to save this recording so it has taken longer than expected! So there we go: Wallpapers and Podcast coming soon, Posters are en route!

The next update should be up shortly notifying everyone to check their KS email to get links.
