3rd.. The big pieces i am starting this next week. They will take til the end of the year. But as many of you know from my work ethic- I am a man of my word.

4th.. THE MAPS AND CHARACTER ADVENTURE LOGS have be finished and uploaded to Backerkit. You will need to go to backerkit to get them.

Shipping progress- the pdf map and everything else...
almost 7 years ago – Tue, Jul 11, 2017 at 10:27:52 PM

HI guys- I hope your day is going fantastic.  Mine is hot and sweaty and my house is a massive shipping sweatshop:)  Which is good. 

As some of you have noticed people are beginning to receive their books. This is awesome. Some of you are still waiting... So let me explain how we tackled this in shipping. 

Also before I start- if you have not gone through the backer kit survey here https://life-of-the-party.backerkit.com/ - you need to do so - so i can send you your goodies.

The first set of books to go out- were just books and single copies only, nothing else. They went media mail and international went... international usps. There were 900 of those.

The next batch are books with goodies in them. These are the folders, cards, coloring books, and extra books, etc... there are about 600+ of these and they will be going out in the next couple of days. Our target deadline was sept and we are way early. So be patient - they are coming.

The next batch- which hopefully will go this week as well is all the small custom art, the original pages of the book and the 6x9 art and their books. I am drawing as fast as I can. My goal is to have all books shipped out before sdcc.

Now if you got a big original custom piece... you will get your book and other goodies first and then after sdcc we will start those.

THE PDF MAPS AND CHARACTER LOGS UPDATE

If you are waiting for pdf for the character logs and maps- I have 4 maps to draw and the 2 big ones. I will be finishing these after SDCC which is next week. Once they are done I will be sending out the link to all those that got this one as well. I just have two hands though and can only draw so fast.

If you have any questions please post them here and/or send me a note. I am super excited that we are soooooo early on getting this project done.

Thank you again for all of your support and keep creating

Books are shipping out in waves... what if it is damaged in shipping?

Hi guys- First off - the books have begun shipping. Wo-hoo- about 880 have shipped and more are shipping in the next couple of weeks.

Sometimes though a book will end up damaged in shipping. If the book is damaged in shipping please send me a note with a photo of the damage to the book to [email protected]. This way i can fix it and see the damage to it and help make it right.

Thanks again for everyones help and if you have not filled out your backerkit survey than you need to get on the ball and get that done.

The survey for backerkit can be found here
