I'm ready to start packaging and fulfillment! Addresses are locking down in under 24 hours, so make sure your shipping address is correct. That puts me nearly a whole month ahead of schedule which is REALLY exciting. I've attached all the pin photos to the end of this update, I hope you like what you see!

Almost every reward arrived in perfect condition, and all packaging supplies have come in. I have finished cutting out all of the wooden TTRPG standees, organized all the pins, and checked print quality on every item. Everything is weighed, prepped, and information is set up to hopefully have a smooth transition into the actual shipping.

Digital rewards will be dispersed when the first physical rewards are shipped out.

A note about the card backs. Normally a pin would be punched through the card so that they are like little displays for the pin. However, I have decided to NOT do this, so that you can use the card and its information in a game or just to keep it looking good.

Remember how I said almost everything was perfect? The nonbinary Blaze pins did arrive with the yellow sections far too green, so they are not in the photos below. They are currently being remade and should be here in a week or two. Any orders with this pin will be slightly delayed, because I wanted to make sure the colors are correct for you.

To the final 9 people who haven't filled their surveys: please get them done! If you don't fill out your survey and make your final payment, I cannot send you all your Cafe items.

To those 7 people who still have failed charges for add-ons/shipping, please get your information fixed ASAP! Without your payment for shipping, I cannot send you all the goodies you ordered.

Extra pins, stickers, and other items are first going up as add-ons to the Cafe 2025 Calendar project. They will then become available at DragonWoodshop.com, either around Christmas time or early in 2025.

As always, if you have any questions, please email me at [email protected].

Forward, toward horizons!

NOTE: as per my terms of service in the FAQ, if you do not fill out your survey and fully pay for pledge + shipping by December 31, 2024, the Cafe TTRPG project will be completely locked and you will not be refunded. I am not a warehouse, so I cannot keep your surveys open forever, nor can I store items forever if they are not paid for or claimed. Any money you have already paid will be considered a donation. THE CAFE TTRPG PROJECT WILL FULLY CLOSE ON DECEMBER 31ST, 2024.

All items are in to fulfill this project! Pins and coffee arrived this week. I will share photos of items as I unpack and inspect them all. To fund the next step of the process (inspection, handling, packaging, and of course shipping), I'll be charging cards for any add-ons and the shipping that needs to be paid! Over the next couple weeks I'll be finalizing what packaging I need to get all these goodies out to you. My next update will be in October.

This is also a reminder to the final 10 people who haven't filled their surveys, to do so! If you don't fill out your survey and make your final payment, I cannot send you all your Cafe items.

My current project, Collectors Guild Cafe 2025 Calendar (& more!) is over in less than 30 hours! If you need a 2025 calendar, or a fun new coloring book, or even just want to enjoy our first 10-page comic book, please join us in the Cafe. All physical pledges are receiving a free 3" Blaze the Phoenix sticker and a 2" x 6" Tree the Minotaur (Alister's wife!) bookmark!

Some more items have come in and were shared on Instagram, and now here! There's the free Cafe D20 sticker (free to ALL pledges for reaching 200+ pledges). Also the Early Bird reward, a group photo sticker of the main 6 Cafe characters. And then of course the individual character stickers! And then the Return Patron reward (which was also an add-on), the PVC coaster. It looks SO GOOD, I'm really happy how these turned out for my first try at PVC coasters.

The next Cafe Project opens September 6! This will be for a 2025 Calendar, a matching coloring book, and the first issue of the Cafe comic. We will have 13 new, full page illustrations, and the comic is a 10-page introduction to the characters. There will be free goodies for previous backers (that's you), early bird backers (that could be you), and backers who pledge to both the Cafe Calendar and my collab partner's project, Cafe Chaos!

Thank you to the 204 of you who have completed your surveys! Your orders will be locking in about 2 days. Everything has been ordered, and some items have already come in (see photos below, but also shared on the Cafe Instagram).

There are only 14 surveys to go, so please fill them out. Otherwise I cannot ship your rewards. For those concerned, you are NOT charged when your survey is done. I will be charging closer to the actual shop time, which will be in October ✨

Go to your profile (your icon in the top right corner of BackerKit) and click Your Pledges & Surveys. Then click Your Surveys. You'll see my project with a blue survey button. Fill that out and enter your shipping information and payment, and we're golden! This is the best way to ensure you're receiving the rewards you want.

Happy surveying! Please let me know if you have any questions.

Forward, toward horizons!
