All the Volume 6 rewards are in the mail!

If there's any problem with your book when it arrives, let me know and I'll see about fixing it.

(It's rare! I think there's only been 2 times this whole 6 years that a book has gotten chewed up during shipping. But that's why you print overstock -- just in case.)

And if everything is good, I'll see you in (*gulp*) 6 months, when we come back to print Volume 7!

Finally, a mini-update from our aspiring robot overlords: I asked a bot to make an image for "Celebrating a successful crowdfunding campaign", and got...this:

A hearty "Tani yoi!!!!" to all of you who helped us raise "$10,0,00" for the Volume 6 "Cowiduandiang!" Hope to see you again soon.

The updated version of the Leif & Thorn Volume 6 ebook, with the updated cover art and the missing strip restored, is now available!

You might have gotten an automatic email from Gumroad about it? And if you're signed in, you can always download the new PDF from your Gumroad library page.

Meanwhile, in shipping news: most orders are in the mail, and all but one have been packed up! (The one is for the backer who got all 6 Leif & Thorn books + a But I'm A Cat Person omnibus set. Thank you for your order, hang in there while I track down an appropriately-sized box!)

Latest update: Almost 85% of all Volume 6 orders are either in the mail, or already received!

Some special deliveries:

Mastodon: Lena's book is in

Tumblr: Whathwatwotter has their copy

Tumblr again: Cresselia has the book + cover art + pins!

As always, when you've got your book(s) -- take a photo, share it around on social media, drop a link here. It's a free way to give the series a little extra boost

- Leif & Thorn Volume 6 orders for US backers are 2/3 shipped!

- Had to put off shipping more "just the latest book" orders, because I ran out of the padded mailers I send them in. Good news, a new 100-count box of those just arrived.

- For non-US backers: you should've just gotten the "48 hours left to lock your shipping address" notice. That means the addresses will be finalized on Sunday night, and I can put the first round of those in the mail next week.

- When your book arrives, if you post a photo on social media, drop the link here! The more I can say "Leif & Thorn crowdfunding campaigns always deliver, here are some IRL backers with their rewards", the easier it is for other readers to think "cool, when the next one comes around, I'll feel secure about backing it."

Cheers,
Erin Ptah

The first 1/3 of packages for US backers are in the mail!

With one batch of them, the USPS truck was on standby near the local mailbox right when I walked over, so I was able to put them directly in the truck. Good times.

And after that since there are a bunch of rewards I can't ship without knowing who gets the original Volume 6 cover art...it was time to spin the wheel.

I used WheelOfNames.com for the handy spinning graphic. Every backer who got a ticket has their name on the wheel -- if you got multiple tickets, your name is there multiple times. Pre-spinning, it looked like this:

And post-spinning (plus some, ah, light cropping to get rid of the on-site ads), it looked like this!

Congratulations to Samatha P! The cover art will be shipped with your book, and the rest of your rewards.

More books are going in the mail all this week. Stay tuned.
