CSP Kickstarter (Almost) Complete · 7:25pm May 22nd, 2023

The last five of the international Kickstarter pledges are going out today (except for one which requires a 5X shirt- the one I got accidentally got shipped elsewhere, and I'm trying to shake a replacement out of my shirt printer).

(Also except for those two people who, despite multiple prompting and attempts at contact, NEVER provided mailing info.)

If you live in the United States, you should LONG SINCE have got your stuff. If you haven't, NOW is the time to ask.

Fort Libris Kickstarter Surveys Sent · 3:17am May 22nd, 2023

Send in your responses so I have the info on hand when the books come in.

Also, for those who missed the Kickstarter, both the book and the obligatory T-shirt are now listed on the WLP online store. The book will be there right along, but the T-shirt will only take orders through the end of June.

The Last Day · 9:13pm May 18th, 2023

Well, it IS the last day if you want the Obligatory Kickstarter T-shirt.

But to make you backers feel extra-special... I shall scribble inside the book and tell you that it's my signature, but ONLY for my Kickstarter backers.

(... and anyone who meets me in person and asks...)

Anyway, 24 hours left to pledge!

Fort Libris Kickstarter Update · 5:07pm May 17th, 2023

I'd intended to have this book already at the printer, but there's still one piece of artwork outstanding. Everything else is assembled and ready to go.

With forty-eight hours (a little more than that as I type this), it looks like a hardcover edition is not going to happen. I'm not surprised, given that this is a story collection, and also given the short notice and timing of the project, and especially given how expensive hardcovers are for short print runs.

First pass on the Kickstarter shirt · 1:54am May 5th, 2023

I can do two colors. Are these good pony colors, or should I go with something else?

Also, should I do fewer fonts, or does having each text with its own font work better?

Progress on Remember Fort Libris · 4:20am May 1st, 2023

Coming up on the halfway mark for this Kickstarter, and we're about two-thirds of the way to the goal. I think it's safe to say at this point that a hardcover is not likely to happen.

Brief update on the CSP Kickstarter... · 4:15am May 1st, 2023

Due mostly to spending two weeks with a persistent sinus infection, nothing got shipped in April. Tomorrow I'm taking a box of packages to the post office which includes four of the remaining international orders (two Canada, one UK, one Australia). I expect to make up a second such box for Wednesday.

By now EVERYBODY in the United States who pledged to the Kickstarter should have all their stuff. If you don't, speak NOW.

Choosing a Shirt Design for the Upcoming Kickstarter · 9:20pm Apr 17th, 2023

Long story short, it's going to be a collage of pull quotes from (most of) the short stories in the book.

Here's my current list. The shirt probably won't use all of them.

If you have a different suggestion, the main criteria are: it must be shorter than the longest quote here; more universally applicable quotes are preferable over pony-specific; and it should only be from the stories listed in the previous blog post (one of which hasn't been posted yet).

Ten CSP Hardcovers Now Available For Sale, and Announcement... · 7:10pm Apr 17th, 2023

Also, ten copies of the mini-artbook.

I have more, but I'm waiting until I get done with artists' copies and the last international orders before releasing the remainder. (Nothing has shipped the last two weeks due to a stubborn sinus infection. I'm hoping to get a few out on Thursday.)

You can order them here.
