Update #18: the last update

Posted on November 26, 2011

HI all - this is the last email for this project. I so appreciated all of your support. All of the books except for the few of you that did not give me your address, are in the mail. We'll keep checking though, because I want everyone to get their reward.

Now a lot of you asked when I would be launching a kickstarter for vol 2. Well follow the link below or drop it in your browser   Book 2 has the same feel and vibe of vol 1. To those that just wanted to help get this started - Thank you - I could not have done it without your help. Keep supporting those projects you like on kickstarter.

Update #15: Books are shipping later this week

Posted on October 31, 2011

Sorry for the delay in updates. The books are shipping this week. They are in what is known as bindery right now, then they ship by freight to get here. It has been a heck of a rollercoaster and I am really excited to see them.

Once I get the books, it will take a few weeks to get all the custom artwork done and then we will be shipping everything.

Also keep an eye out. For us to ship we need your address, so we will be sending out a survey from kickstarter to gather that information.

thanks again for all the support

keep creating- trav
