Ok, that's it, all the Backer rewards for the Sparks and Monsters Kickstarter have shipped. Yes, even the Australian packages! I'm now finishing up the stuff I need to do for the NEXT Kickstarter, including lining up a fulfillment house so that next time, I don't have to pack every one of these things with my own two hands. It's going to be more expensive, but it will also be a LOT faster. I'm sure everyone will appreciate that, I know I will.

If you are a backer who has NOT done the BackerKit form, it's not too late, tell us where to ship your stuff here: https://girlgenius19.backerkit.com/ and if you have trouble, please use our handy customer service form or our customerservice@studiofoglio.com email. Don't use random social media or even the Kickstarter comments, which sometimes get so swamped that we miss things. We don't want to miss things, we want to get you your rewards!

Thank you, everyone!

THE BRASSY SCIENCE FOBS ARE BACKORDERED AGAIN! That was fast. You can still preorder them on the BackerKit shop, but they won't ship for about a month. Sorry about that.

The Kickstarter for Volume 20 will be launching very, very soon! You can sign up to be notified here on the Kickstarter pre-launch page. 

This time, we'll be printing the usual softcover and fancy puffy first edition hardcover of Volume 20. We also need to reprint Volumes 1, 2 and 5, so those are going to be stretch goals. I'm waiting for the printer quotes so I know how much it will cost us to reprint those. The big news is that, twenty-odd years in, we're hoping to do a new, mass-market hardcover edition as we reprint those old volumes. It won't be the fancy version, those will still be the lovely collectible volumes they've always been, but it will make hardcover editions available once again.

I've finally got the BackerKit store open for Sparks and Monsters! This is the last chance at some of the campaign exclusives like medals and patches. Also, to my surprise, we have some Hardcover editions left. I wasn't expecting to be able to add that to the BK store, but there it is. Hooray! I'm busy shipping all that stuff now, and waiting for quotes for the next volume of the collection. So much to do!
