Hello Awesome Backers:
I wanted to let you know that Alden has begun layouts for issue #3, and I've started writing issue #4. I'm very pleased with the progress of this series. :) I'll keep you posted.
ZELDA AWARDS
I also have the honor of being nominated in three categories (Single Issue, Writing, and best series for Boston Metaphysical Society) for the brand new Zelda Awards. This is a brand new award that is specifically designed to honor female comic creators.
Please take the time to vote for myself and the other wonderful nominees.
You can vote here. FYI - You do have to sign up, but it's super easy.
Before I go, I'd like to highlight two very fun campaigns going on right now.

I'm so happy to announce that we have reached our first stretch goal! That means everyone who has pledged to a reward will receive six digital indie comics two weeks after the campaign closes. Yah!
The next stretch goal is this beautiful magnet (3 inches in diameter) by Roberta Ingranata of Derelei.
Once we reach this stretch goal, everyone who has pledged to a physical reward will receive one. I will have more to announce soon.
In the meantime, I'd like to highlight some of my fabulous fellow creators who are in the middle of their campaigns.
