Update #2: Week Two, now with bonus drawings...
Posted on September 29, 2009
Hey everybody! Just two weeks in and already almost a thousand dollars above the funding goal. So amazing - thanks again to all backers, and welcome to everyone who's come on board this week. Still plenty of rewards to go around, so keep circulating that link. I've got a few extra rewards I'm thinking of adding down the line, too, so stay tuned...
Speaking of extra rewards, below are a couple of bonus drawings I'll be giving away. One is for Mr. Lewis Winter, whose pledge put us over the top of the funding goal - Lewis, let me know which one of these you like, and I'll add it to your rewards (unless you'd prefer something a little different, in which case I'll whip up another for ya). The other will go to whoever pledges the amount that bumps us up over $6000. I plan to give away more of these (and maybe other stuff too) as we go on. 91 backers right now - whoever becomes backer #100 gets a bonus drawing too!
(Note: These are 6"x9" - similar to what I'm offering as "The Commissioner" reward, just a bit smaller. "Commissioner" drawings will be around 9"x12", and will of course be of whatever subject you like.)
Thanks everyone, and keep checking back for more. In the meantime, from our Creativity / Inspiration department, here's a terrific talk on doing creative work by Merlin Mann (which I'll certainly be listening to again in preparation for making the new book), via the invaluable Sound of Young America podcast. Talk to you soon...

Thanks, Phil! (I'm glad, too...)
Squid loves you too, Alex.
Jamie Tanner is a demigod. Many hearty congrats to you sir!
I think both are great, but I'm going to lay claim to the squid. Thanks!
