Our book is almost done!
We're about to go to print with our glorious hardbacks featuring this fabulous artwork by Likhain. We're so delighted with this cover and we hope you are too.
We've been so busy over the last couple of months! Packaging has been delivered to the House of Tansy to start sending out jam, tea & knitted robots.
Rivqa meanwhile made an appearance at Wiscon (!!!) this week, with a Mother of Invention themed party featuring some of our authors (of fiction and the upcoming essay series) and backers, plus general TPP supporters.
Expect to see some articles and interviews rolling out over the next few months, as our TPP publicity manager Miriam has been organising all kinds of opportunities for us. We love you, Miriam!
Tansy just finished Frankentastic, a podcast reading of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, regendered. It's been an eye-opening experience. Did you know that Frankenstein celebrates its 200th anniversary this year? Check out the podcast if you want to listen to Tansy reading a classic... with a few key differences.
Rivqa, Tansy, Likhain & more will be at Continuum in Melbourne this Queen's Birthday weekend, and we WILL be hosting a Mother of Invention party. We'll let you know when and where, because of course you're invited to share cupcakes, jam and book talk with us.
Keep an eye on your postbox in June! And make sure that any postal changes are registered with Backerkit. Rewaaaaaards are about to start rolling out...
The last day to make final updates to your order is 1 April 2018 (this Sunday). After this date, we will lock your reward selections and charge cards for add-on item purchases, pledge upgrades, and pre-orders. You can update your shipping address up until we lock addresses for shipping.
If you haven’t answered your survey yet, if you fill out your BackerKit survey or pay for extra shipping after the order due date, we’ll still receive your information but your shipment may be delayed.
If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page at https://mother-of-invention.backerkit.com.
THANK YOU!
Thank you all again for being so responsive to answering our BackerKit survey—even though it may not seem like much as an individual backer, you have no idea how tremendously helpful this has been for me when trying to keep track of all 554 of you!
Thanks everyone for your support!
Tansy & Rivqa, Twelfth Planet Press
Our book is almost done, and we are on track to go to the printers in April! Most of the rewards are prepped and ready to go. But of course there's a lot of work to be done in getting them all out to you.
Soon, you’ll receive an email from us with a special link to your BackerKit survey. It’s important to respond to your survey as quickly as you can since we need this information to fulfill your rewards.
You don’t need to create a BackerKit account to fill out your survey. When you receive the email with the survey, click the survey link to respond. Answer the questions about your reward preferences, provide shipping information, and purchase add-on items if you like. You don’t have access to this survey link yet, but it will be available soon via email!
After you respond to your survey, you can go back later and change your responses at any time before we close the surveys and get our final counts.
If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page at https://mother-of-invention.backerkit.com.
