March Behind the Scenes

Hey guys!

February was a tough and chaotic month for many of us. Ry and I are so very thankful for your support, patience, and generosity while we get back into the swing of things.

Without further ado, let's look at the fun stuff going on behind the scenes!

Volume 5 Launch

We finished the final paperback proofreading and uploaded the final copy today! We'll be ordering the paperbacks as soon as IngarmSpark approves it (hopefully tomorrow), shipping Kickstarter packages when the books arrive, and then bringing them to our Volume 5 Launch Party on March 28th!

We'll be at Scale and Feather Meadery in Avondale on March 28th at 4:30 pm to 9:00 pm! They're hosting us with brats, burgers, and of course, delicious mead. If you're in the area, we would love to see you!

Unfortunately, I haven't heard back from crabrangoober since the first week of January, so we found another artist for our island postcards. Annie is doing a terrific job, and Ichi Island is up next!

You can still get a full set of all five for $20 in our shop.

The Writing Stream

We've been thrilled with all of the positive feedback we've received on our writing stream! Ry's pngtuber is done so he can also host his own streams, and we picked up two "gremlin versions" by KittycAtlasVT for future workshops and co-streams.

So far, we've hosted a total of 6 Writer's Workshops that you can catch the VODs for on our YouTube channel! We've discussed Characterization, the Costs of Publishing, Writing Intimate Scenes, and more!

RavynVT re:Debut

Ravyn's new VTuber by VTanjo is done, and she is absolutely gorgeous:

The range on her expressions is insane. We were not expecting this level of detail and quality, and we cannot wait to unveil her to you guys!

The overhaul will also include new alerts...

New emojis...

A custom chat widget, and more! Keep an eye out for a finalized date for the re:Debut!

And speaking of Ravyn...

This month's NSFW piece features her and Matt. Here's a WIP sketch of the SFW version from AridanBlack (who got back to me, hooray!):

The Acrylic Pins

I fell behind on announcing the January and February pins, but they're arriving with our keychains for the Kickstarter. January was Yanni, and February was Alia!

My goal is to have them out at the end of this week when everything gets here.

March's pin will be Ara wearing Rem's outfit from Re:Zero as a small tribute to William. We're looking forward to Maon's interpretation of his favorite girl.

Thank you for your support!

We couldn't do this without you. Thank you for everything.

See you soon.
