Fully funded, and then some!
Just wanted to send out a note to say THANK YOU to all the Gwendolyn backers out there! When Ian and I decided to use Kickstarter to fund our project, we weren't sure if we would even make half our goal. You guys blew us away by bringing us to almost $20,000! It's truly a great feeling to be supported by friends, family, and folks we don't know, but would like to know.
The proofs have been approved and the book is currently entering print production. The printer tells us that they should leave China around June 6, and will arrive here in CA in early July. They will debut at San Diego Comic Con on July 12, and we will begin shipping book orders shortly after Comic Con ends.
Quick note: A few people have asked where they can buy the previous book that Ian and I made...M is for Mutt is available on Bill's etsy shop if you'd like a copy.
Thanks again, Kickstarters. We will keep you updated with new Gwendolyn news!

Huzzah! Thanks for the update. :D Your project has inspired me to pick up work again on a few of my old ideas... it's been fifty kinds of fun. :)
Can't wait to see Gwendolyn and the Underworld in person.
