#5.5 July 2024
Wow. Well then! The Vow Kickstarter absolutely blew past our goal and was fully funded by day three, and we're now just over $4,500 at about halfway through the campaign. Which means we have already passed our first stretch goal and are closing in on the others...
...and as Newsletter Homies, I'll let you in on a secret not yet posted elsewhere. We know that $4,000 and $5,000 will see the addition of a sticker set and miniprint set to be added to all physical orders -- I'm excited to share that the $6,666 goal will add NSFW print set and NSFW stickers into that bundle. We're building to a very healthy stock of free stuff for pledges! (Sticker designs not final.)
That final goal is still shrouded in mystery, but I can say this will be a reward you can read as opposed to just enjoy decoratively. Beyond that, my lips are sealed ;0
By the by, if you're interested in supernatural smut comics (which, if you're reading this newsletter, is extremely likely) you should absolutely go check out the Kickstarter for Usual Haunts Issue 1. My friend + fellow cartoonist Mariah Currey is also currently crowdfunding to print her comic, a cute slice of life about a recently turned vampire fucking around and finding out (in a fun way!)
The print edition of UH#1 will include bonus comics + illustrations! There's also a ton of add-ons available including Mariah's other comics work and merchandise such as ^^^ this CUTE cute sticker ^^^ of the protag, Mathilde! To the people who hung out and chatted about vampires with us at MCAF, this one goes out to you.
Usual Haunts is just about $700 from funding and still has two days left on the clock. We're in the final hours for the campaign but I know for sure this is super achievable!! Mariah is a great + hardworking artist and I would really love to see this KS sail over that finish line.
Thanks for reading this mid-month brief -- given all the Kickstarter goings-on we have a little more than usual to chirp about! I look forward to seeing you all in the next update.
(remember, you have until August 6 to back The Vow!)
