Update #15: One Week to Fund Crap Hound #6 ~ $6000 to go!

Posted on March 28

Hello Crap Hound enthusiasts!

We know many of you already have Crap Hound #6 which was last reprinted in 2006, but did you know that we're offering all sorts of extra rewards, such as:

  • 16-page supplement with all new images!
  • Bonus digital pack with hundreds of hi-res of images from the #6 supplement!
  • New skull and scissors print by Sean Tejaratchi!
  • Lots of other goodies from past projects!

Also, we've added a last minute reward! For $20 you'll receive five digital fonts designed by Sean Tejaratchi! Please see below for info and images, see project page for how to add to an existing pledge or reward package.

We hope you can pledge to and/or share our project this week! The project ends on April 4th at 2:30pm. If we don't meet our goal of $13,000 we won't receive any of the funds raised and the reprint will be indefinitely delayed.

Best Regards,

Chloe

Update #14: Don't Fear the Reaper! Pledge to Crap Hound #6: Death, Telephones & Scissors!

Posted on March 7

Hello!

We're pleased to announce we've launched our latest Kickstarter project to publish the 4th edition of Crap Hound #6: Death, Telephones & Scissors, which will include a 16-page supplement with all new material as well as a brand spanking new cover!

This is the fourth issue we've put out in two years (thanks in large part to Kickstarter and YOU)! You may think that's moving at a snail's pace, but it's actually the quickest they've come out since the early days in the mid-90s when we were young whipper snappers that had nothing better to do than cut and paste tiny pieces of paper onto bigger pieces of paper and then clean it all up with a white out pen! It's true! Computers weren't involved until much later and the newfangled technology doesn't really save time as Sean is compelled to make every image as clean and crisp as possible in Photoshop.

We're offering several rewards, including a couple designed for those of you have the third edition of #6 (Jordan Crane cover) and just want the supplement and bonus digital material. We would greatly appreciate your pledge and/or help spreading the word about this project. 

Thanks for your previous support and we hope you hop on board for Crap Hound #6!

Best Regards,

Chloe

P.S. If you have an question that requires a response, please send us a message via Kickstarter. You will find that option right under the title of the project you pledged to on the main project page. Don't leave your question as a comment here, as we can't leave direct replies to comments and we have to search for the project you pledged to, your pledge level and contact info in order to respond.

Thanks,

Chloe

Update #12: Crap Hound #5 Update & Our Latest Kickstarter Project! Please Read!

Posted on April 26, 2011

Dear Backers,

By now, if your pledge was successful and you provided your mailing address, you all should have received your rewards for our Crap Hound #5 Kickstarter project. If you haven't received yours, either we don't have your address or your package was lost in the mail (this seems to happen a couple times per project). Please contact us at info @ readingfrenzy.com. Include your name, mailing address, and what level you pledged at and we will follow up on your order ASAP. Leaving comments on our project updates or elsewhere is not an effective way to get in touch.

Sean is hard at work on the brand new Crap Hound! No. 8: Superstitions, which will come out this summer! While No. 5: Hands, Hearts & Eyes has always been my favorite (and our best selling) I think Superstitions is going to blow everyone away! We'll be launching a Kickstarter project to cover printing and shipping costs in June.

Our current project can be viewed here: http://kck.st/i51uqw . We're raising funds to put out the next three prints in our Reading Frenzy Print Series! These prints celebrate our favorite pastime by some of our favorite artists, and the proceeds help support our shop! They make great gifts for librarians, teachers and avid readers of all ages. They're each limited to editions of 250 so grab one while you can! Our first three artists are Carson Ellis, Aaron Renier and Nikki McClure and this summer we'll be rolling out a print by Kate Bingaman-Burt! The prints are pictured below! Please consider becoming a backer and sharing our project!

Finally, we're pleased as punch to have a Curated Page on Kickstarter where we get to plug our favorite projects! You can view our page here and view the other Curated Pages here.

Keep Reading (and Sharing and Pledging)!

Your Faithful Proprietress,

Chloe
