Pledge $40 or more Pledge $40 or more

This is a really special one. The book and related fun listed above, PLUS one extra special bonus: a handmade birthday card. As it happens, the two of us are accomplished birthday card makers and our friends wait ALL YEAR for them. If you contribute at this level, we will be very happy to produce a birthday card for you--either from us to you, or from you to someone else, or WHAT HAVE YOU! Please understand you will be asked to fill out a NON-INVASIVE questionnaire to help us customize the card.
Pledge $100 or more Pledge $100 or more
The book and attendant silliness enumerated above, PLUS a screen printed page of your choice from the book. That's right: if you are so generous as to give at this level, we will give you the power to choose one page from the book to be produced as a limited edition run of hand-made (by us), archival-quality screenprints. You will get the lowest-numbered print available (number one, unless someone else has contributed and chosen the same page before you), signed and verified by us.
Pledge $10,000 or more Pledge $10,000 or more
Oh. Are you a corporation? How'd you get so much money? Well, whatever: please consider giving at the $10,000 level, which will get you all of the above AS WELL AS product placement in future editions of the book, MAYBE.

I work as a writer and web producer in New York City, but maintain a second life as an artist and unserious writer in Brooklyn. Nowadays, my output is 90% doodle/10% birthday cards. I have recently finished my first book, "How To Doodle," co-doodled with Andrew Cleary. We hope you will like it; it's pretty silly.
Thanks for the kind comments everyone! For those who are wondering where to get their own copy, I'm happy to announce the book is available for purchase through the Raygun store:

While you're there, check out the other cool t-shirts and doodads that Raygun has to offer. Great fun!
Great project and a joy to own. Thanks.
I got my book and love it! I want to tell others about it so they can order it. Should I send them here, or is there a place to order it directly?
gimme that book
(The Library loves you guys. Let's collaborate.)
Doodle Senseis, I will take this moment to publicly thank you for your encouragement and invitation to this glorious situation of kickstarter. While I anxiously await my PBB copy of "how to doodle" I grow ever enthusiastic and hopeful that my own project may be as successful as yours. Perhaps your fans may be interested in an equally-educational but a bit more "gravitas" (that means heavy) subject matter?

Meet me at 200% !
That is a great question, Elizabeth D! We will have extra books after this is all over, and we can either sell them to you at our list price (TBD) or work something out at one of the higher pledge levels. A little horse trading perhaps.
Will it be possible to obtain multiple copies of your publication?
I'm not sure what donation level that falls into, but I am considering giving your book as a present to a doodley-challenged friend, and want one for myself as well.
Keith, I am quite confident that, once you are forced to read this book and then sit in a really boring place for a very long time, you will find your inner doodler has been there all along. For our part, we cannot wait to send you, and everyone else this book. Thanks for your support!
I have high hopes for your book, "Teach the World How to Doodle." I assume, of course, that the "The World" includes even the doodle-challenged, such as myself, who can barely scrawl a few dispirited curly lines and the occasional misshapen, indecipherable blob. How I long to produce vibrant masterpieces of the doodle art, as you have done. I am hoping that your book will unleash my inner doodle-Rembrandt, or at the least, my inner doodle-Hans Holbein (the Younger). Godspeed, intrepid sirs!
Yes, we were very careful to make sure that we would not be in competition with anyone's mother. Thanks for your support.
My mom could write a better book on the subject than you, but since she didn't I'll settle for yours.
