Hello all! I am out of town at the moment but non-upgraded books and goodies should start shipping next week, as the BNG Indiegogo is now basically complete and the P&C swag has all arrived. Still working through the Rio figure Kickstarter as well, so those will all be slowly but steadily marching their way out the door.
For those of you asking, the digital downloads are not yet ready (in particular Jam's Talent Show and the Rio comic are both still in progress due to sick days on Miu's end). I will post here when they are, and if you've completed your survey on Backerkit you will also get an automatic e-mail from them too. The digital downloads of the books should be ready to go before the end of the month. More news on the Jam's Talent Show portfolio as I get it!

Short note: please direct all campaign-related questions to [email protected]. Miu cannot answer any questions related to campaign fulfillment and the Rio Kickstarter/BNG Indiegogo items need to be shipped out first, as those campaigns ended before this one even started. I ended up with significantly less help than I was supposed to and much as I would prefer otherwise, I'm currently only one person trying to pack and mail out hundreds of packages. <XD
Trying to iron out the problems in the digital distribution before we open the floodgates for that as well. Hold tight, we're still here.

Backerkit survey pending approval! Two days (or less) to go!
Also for those of you interested in signed books, because of Miu's schedule he had to go home to get more art and comic work on the move, so he has signed 50 copies of Ask Jam and 24 copies each of Super Delicious #1 and #2. Keeping fingers crossed that there will be enough of them to go around, but it will be first-come, first-served. The earlier you answer your surveys, the better the chances of you getting a signed copy. I will update here as soon as surveys are sending out, so if you don't receive one after 24 hours, please contact Backerkit support ASAP.
Of course, if you don't want signatures, there are plenty of unsigned copies to go around. :)
There's also an option to indicate that you would like the upgraded print quality version for Super Delicious #1 and #2. At this time we will probably not be offering them in a signed version, and we're expecting that the shipments will be in somewhere around Fall/Winter of this year. To keep things organized, we will not be splitting shipments, so your whole order will ship when your books are ready. Please keep this production delay in mind when making your selection.

Hello all!
Well both the BNG and Miu books' IGGs have come to a
close and we're very thankful for the results. We're still working on
polishing up the survey for the Miu books IGG, as well as testing out
the hosting for the big download packs (seriously, some of these files
are WAY huge for most services) and will announce here when they are
ready to go. Most of our time has been taken up with the less than fun
parts of making books happen: putting pages in order, spellchecking,
cover layout, dammit why is the formatting using the wrong kind of
apostrophe, finding all the wrong apostrophes and changing them over...
Using
at least the rough guidelines for the book counts as determined by
pledge counts here, we went ahead and placed the orders for the first
round of books. We have also already ordered and received all the
packing material we'll need. So, if we're lucky, we'll get to send out
contributor copies and they will get to have their debut at Anthrocon!
Miu
and I are discussing plans for upgrading printing in later runs of the
adult books, to arrive later in the year, probably Fall. The Ask Jam
book is already being upgraded, so for those of you who participated and
got that book too, we think you'll appreciate the difference. For those
of you who may want an upgraded-style copy of the book over the current
quality and are willing to wait a few extra months for that version to
come out, please e-mail us using the Email button to the left, on the
campaign page.
Current work involves tweaking the book PDFs for
the two campaigns at the moment, so they can be loaded onto the flash
drives and they can be ordered ASAP. Back to the grind!
