SURVEYS ARE OUT!
There's about 108 of you who I need info for before we can start prepping all the materials. Make sure to check ya spam folder and if you haven't received it yet I can resend it to you. I want to make sure I get everyone's info correct. Help me help you!
BUTTONS
Button's are currently in production! Should have them in the next 2 weeks
PRINTS

As well as the Kickstarter exclusive Postcard!
Commisions:
If you pledged for the 8x10 watercolor or 16x20 Original, I'll be contacting you in the coming weeks to discuss your story choice to recreate and original design for the 16x20!
DELAYS!?!?!
So it was bound to happen. The book was shipped off with out an issue, 3 days after the KS ended. If you're wondering why I waited, it was because I wanted to see which cover we were using as well as the gallery of Lucy. KrakenPrint informed me with it coming so close to the end of the year that the 5 week turn around time is now more realistically 6 to 8 weeks.
What does that mean? Welp, it means on the best possible situation I"ll get the books in hand on the first week of December with worst case being closer to the middle of December. It sucks, and I can't tell you how much of a bummer it was BUT I'm told that it's very common for book delays. This being my first ever KS, it still burns a bit but it's out of my hand.
What I"m attempting to do is the moment we get the books I'll start packaging and shipping. The unsigned books will go out first with me signing all of the others to ship out. I"m still hoping to get them all out before the end of the year. BUT there's a high chance of them not being delivered to you amazing people until January, late February (for you international Folk).
I'm very sorry for it, and if anything it's made me realize that if I do another KS (that is, if you guys actually enjoy the stories enough to support another venture) I'll be doing it no later than May. Again, if you guys have any questions, feel free to post here or email me at [email protected]
Thanks again guys! I'm going to be 100% transparent with you at all times!

Hey Everyone!
Thank you so much again for supporting this! I'm sending out the first round of surveys so make sure to check your spam folder just in case. I'll be sending out another one closer to shipping to make sure we didn't miss any addresses.
I've also opened up Pre orders for any late backer! So if you didn't have a chance to support the book then, you will now!

Lost Lucy Gallery Artists

Since I'm in the wait mode for KS funds to be transferred and the books in production I thought I'd reveal the artist's I've involved in the Gallery and who will receive a free copy of the book, Kindergarten on top of your pledge (if you pledged).
It was very VERY hard to choose from so many talented artists. I not only looked at style but also the message portrayed. It was extremely hard to do and I have no doubt some artist may be upset, but not as upset as I was when having to narrow it down.
Artists:
Damian Baena - Breya Ludwig - Chad Wehrle - Jamie Koala - Denise Magdale - Steven Bossler - Angie Garcia - Kori Boone - Dana Schaffer - Cheyenne Martinez
Congrats!
I have some more updates coming but spreading em out to not overwhelm your mailbox.

Hey everyone!
Hope the weekend has treated ya well! Just dropping in to let ya know the book has been shipped off to presses. Waiting for proofs and getting ready for production. I'll be adding updates periodically to keep you in the loop but hopefully not too many to drive you nuts.
For those who are late backers, I'll be putting up a link eventually to get your pre order in. The winners for the Lucy Gallery will be announced soonish as well!
