Hello Wonderful Backers!
I am gearing up to place orders for all your books so I want to give everyone a chance to shop add ons and the preorder store.
If you're a current backer, you can shop add ons through your BackerKit Surveys. Check your inbox for the survey if you haven't yet completed it, or log in to make any additional add on purchases.
And if you know anyone who might like to purchase their own copies, you can invite them to the BackerKit Preorder store here.
Quick Shipping update...

This update applies to International backers who will be paying shipping fees via Backerkit.
I made a minor mistake in the way I set up the shipping prices based on weights. I forgot to add a rate for international letter mail. (oops!)
Anyhoo, I'll be editing the shipment details tomorrow, so you might see some fluctuation in shipping prices while I work on the adjustment, but I'll let you know when the rates are finalized.
This will NOT result in higher shipping rates for anyone. I just have a few international backers who have ordered maps, stickers, character cards and super light weight items that will count as letter mail. As the rates are currently set up, they're getting charged $30 for shipping. And that was not my intent at all lol.
Look for my follow up update coming soon ;)
Thanks so much!

Video Update!

Hello lovely backers!
I have a long overdue video update for you guys. Check out the video for a look at all the new swag and proof copies for The Reluctant Queen. And please excuse all my ums and anyways lol. I am not a great speaker, nor a videographer, but the books are the star of the video, not me.
And keep in mind that all these items are still available if you're feeling a little FOMO after seeing them here. I've sent out a small selection of backerkit surveys and once we've worked all the bugs out, everyone will get the survey and access to the add-on store.
For Shipping: All non US backers will pay shipping through the backerkit survey, based on the total weight of your order. US residents will get free media mail shipping for most orders.
In the meantime, if you have any questions at all, don't hesitate to reach out.

Hello, Wonderful Backers!
It's been a while since I've updated you on fulfillment progress. Setting up Backerkit proved to be a bit more of a challenge than I anticipated, and a rather time intensive undertaking as well. I'm grateful they have such wonderful customer service, they've been a lifesaver.
But we finally have everything set up, and the kinks worked out (hopefully). Some of you will start to receive your surveys early next week.
I have tons of updates to share with you next week (once I have a clean desk to make a video). We have proof copies of the coloring books as well as The Reluctant Queen! I'll have a video update so you can see how that's coming along. I also have the map posters, and they turned out beautiful! Stickers have also arrived.
We're just waiting on the gold foil bookmarks and the gold foil character cards to come in once the proofs are approved.
The Chosen Sons and The Lost Son will take the longest to complete as they are still in the editing phase of the process. But I've completed a mock up of the interior art that I'll share with you soon.
Thanks to you all for getting your Kickstarter surveys completed. We had 97% of backers respond by the deadline so that was awesome. I used the information from the survey to complete the surprise art pages I created with all your names and it turned out better than I anticipated! I just haven't decided if I'm going to show that page in the video or if I want to keep it a surprise for you when you open the books after they arrive.
Thank you so much for your patience while I've been busy working on fulfilment. Digital rewards will start being delivered very soon!
In the meantime, I will leave you with a sweet Fynlee pic. She's clearly exhausted from doing absolutely nothing. And yes, she's wearing pink pajamas!
Being cute is hard work

Happy Friday!
Surveys have gone out. Please check your messages and get those surveys filled out as soon as you can.
We're at 72% on completed surveys so that's wonderful! I'm waiting on 54 responses and we'll be at 100% and then I can complete the interior formatting with the final art piece with your names and get proofs ordered.
Backerkit surveys will come soon. For those of you who need to pay for international shipping or add ons, that's where you will see those options.
I flubbed a few of the digital surveys by asking for an address as a required field. If you don't mind filling it out with any address just to get it complete, that would be great. If not, please email me at [email protected] and I'll get you a new survey.
