Hey Patriot!
Since the Book Drive is nearly over, I thought that I’d do a quick update.
So far we’ve received $2445 $2600 in pre-orders, which is 49% 52% of our crazy $5000 goal. Now, before you lament that this hasn’t been a success, let me put something in perspective for you: the book drive that we did for our last book After Halloween netted $200 in pre-orders.
The actual cost of printing our books was closer to $6000 when it is all said and done. ($5k was an early estimate)
While it would have been amazing to get the full $5000, we’re thrilled to get your support to cover half of it at least.
But, if you’d like to make it even more successful, you can still pre-order right now!

The printer just sent me these photos of the first book off of the presses, that I wanted to share with you. (Click for larger)
Looks pretty great, huh? Don’t forget that this book is quite a bit larger than our last ones, at 11×9 inches.
I’m so excited to get mine!

Now, if you’ve been thinking about supporting us on the Book Drive, I hope that these photos might entice some of you to lend us a hand.
- Can we push this thing to 60%?!! Only 8% to go!!!
- Every pre-order really helps. It’s true.
- If you’ve been reading the comic at all, we made this book for you.
- Be our Patron, Patriot!

Oh…dang.
I can feel the excitement all the way over here in chilly Michigan. Can’t wait to see the books. Nice work, Daniel.

Trying to buy in as a patron but not getting a shipping address and paypal keeps booting me out.
Sorry to hear that, Heidi.
It’s most likely some inconsistency between the shipping address and the billing address on file at the bank/card company. Paypal doesn’t allow this disparity, to protect against stolen cards being used.
I’m not sure how to help you.
Am I supposed to be getting a shipping address window? Because I’m not – that may be the problem. I haven’t submitted any payment info either. Can I send you a check?
