Final Stretch PTTR Volume 2! It's now or never!!
about 4 years ago – Thu, Feb 20, 2020 at 07:25:30 PM

Evening everyone!

I come to you in the darkness of night with (likely) my last post about the Kickstarter for Volume 2 of Paint the Town Red!  Its good news I promise!!

As of right now we are approximately at:

>> $5,300 /$9,000 <<

Which is absolutely AMAZING so far!!  I'm coming to you one last time because we only have 5 days to pull that last $3700 and we KNOW we can hit it!  We've even set another wager at the beginning of last week to give you all Prism Knights once again.  $6,000 before the end of Friday the 21st of February (11:59pm) gets every person with a physical tier, one Prism Knight book!

We are only $700 away from that goal.  With your help we can certainly make it!

(for those curious we also wagered that if we can hit $7,000 before Friday we would give every Werewolf tier backer (including Lone Wolf) TWO Prism Knight books... which is ALSO still very do-able)!!

More books? Don't mind if you do~!

For a quick refresher!  Our wolf tiers are some of our best tiers currently!  Werewolf gets you both books (at a bit of a discount which might be worth splitting with a friend!)

Whilst we also have a Lone Wolf tier that nets you the second volume (or first if you have friends/colleagues/acquaintances who want to try it out) of Paint the Town Red with a couple other of our books!  If you've pledged to a pack-tier for Volume 1.1, just know you WILL be allowed to select which VVVTrilogy book you'd like (or message me and we can opt you into something else from our shop of equal value to replace it with, no sweat!)

LIKEWISE, we have not mentioned this tier very much BUT if you have a cool group you want to split with you can pledge to our Retailer Tier (aka the Buddies Tier) and get yourselves 6 vols of PTTR 1 or 2 or three sets of the stories!  You and your folks can split a smaller shipping cost and get a discount on a bundled deal ONLY offered on Kickstarter!

We are getting really, really close to the end both nearing our goal AND timeline!  We could use all the help you have to offer to get us there!  Help us share it around if you can!

As always, thank you all so very much for everything you've done so far, you're the base that helped us start this story and we are always honoured to see you return and keep us up and running.

Thank you, a million times, thank you!

Happy Valentine's Day! Volume 2 Updates!!
about 4 years ago – Fri, Feb 14, 2020 at 12:15:12 PM

Hi everyone!

We usually only update previous-kickstarter backers about project updates when we get closer to the end of a campaign but this particular campaign could use a boost and a bit of help reaching its goal!

I'm going to be honest, Volume 2 is struggling a bit this year despite our efforts to get the word out there, lord knows we are tRYING.  We are NOT defeated yet, there is still 12 days left and a LOT can happen in that time.

We made a wager on the Volume 2 Kickstarter that goes a little something like this, If BY Valentine's day we reach...

  • 50% Funded ($4,500): Every backer pledged to a physical reward tier will  get to choose from these patches to be added to their reward~! (if they so wish to)
we will also offer the option for backers NOT to select a patch with their reward tiers as we know this doesn't suit everyone
  • 75% Funded ($6,750):  Every backer pledged to a physical reward tier will  get to choose from 1 of these Prism Knights books to be added to their reward~! (if they so wish to)
Prism Knights is a series of short stories about queer knights!
  • 100% Funded: we will finalize a scene from Volume 2 and post it on the Kickstarter for you all to read~! (may or may not include the newest baby vampire character--)

BUT SEEING as TODAY is Valentine's Day we are feeling a bit generous.  

IF WE HIT 100 BACKERS TODAY on the Volume 2 project folks all physical reward tiers will get 1 patch added to their rewards (opt-out option will be available) 

IF WE HIT $5,000 TODAY on the Volume 2 project folks on physical reward tiers will get 1 Prism Knights book added to their rewards (opt-out option will be available)

If you haven't gotten your copy of Volume 2 NOW's your chance to do that AND get yourself some extra swag with your rewards!  We wouldn't pester you if the story didn't mean a LOT to us.  So much so, Tasha and I were considering releasing Volume 3 in the fall if Volume 2 funds.

We also went ahead and added a tier called Lone Wolf for those who were interested in getting Volume 2 bundled with The Sanity Circus Volume 1 and a book from the VVVTrilogy!

We honestly wouldn't be doing this if the situation wasn't as dire as it is but we KNOW this is a good story, so many of you have told us how much it excites you, we just need your help to convince folks that it's worth backing the project.

>> PLEDGE TO VOLUME 2 <<

Thank you all so very much for your support, we hope to see you in our future Volumes of Paint The Town Red!

Paint the Town Red Volume 2 On Kickstarter!
about 4 years ago – Wed, Feb 05, 2020 at 02:32:46 PM

Hi everyone!  

We hope it hasn't felt like TOO long since this last campaign!  Since funding Paint the Town Red (the first volume) with you all here on Kickstarter, we have received so much love and support and such fabulous feedback from all of you.  We are so so happy and so, so honoured that you like our story and were here for its inception!  We are truly honoured and grateful to you!

Which is why we wanted to let you know that we are now launching the second volume to the Paint The Town Red saga!

 >> CLICK HERE & SEE THE CAMPAIGN << 

Click-through to Kickstarter Campaign

Now, you might be thinking, 'hold on a minute, this is Volume 2.... but I have Volume 1.1... what gives?' and we are going to be honest... when initially printing our 100-page first volume we  were convinced the book would come out a lot more slim.  We initially  had the plan of a 3-part introduction to be smooshed into an omnibus at a  later time.  HOWEVER, the final product is a hefty and nice volume!  While we will be re-printing new volumes of the first instalment renamed; Volume 1, both this new Volume 1 and Volume 1.1 will have the exact same content.  This means that if you decide to purchase Volume 2 the story will continue as it should!  The upside?  You can hold on to Volume 1.1 knowing in your heart of hearts that you were one of the FIRST to believe in us and in this story!

We will always be hugely thankful for that <3

Have a fantastic day/evening/night everyone!  Hope to see you continue the adventure with us!

Shipped + PTTR: The Next Volume
almost 5 years ago – Fri, Jun 07, 2019 at 05:25:22 PM

Hi Everyone!

Firstly I want to say thank you so much for all the positive feedback on the books, for all of your kindness and patience as we shipped this whole thing out!  It's super official, everything has shipped out as of this moment on!

A few things to remember!  It takes a little while for packages to arrive; here are the expected delivery dates for your rewards (if you haven't gotten them already):

  • Canada (should be delivered, let us know if you haven't gotten yours yet)
  • USA by next week (June 14th)
  • International by Sept 1st!

If there is anything missing from your packages let us know and we will work something out with you as soon as we can!

Also: we are working on commissions now as well for the folks who pledged to those tiers!  We will be sure to get in touch with you if there are any details we need clarification on.  If you have any questions you can e-mail: [email protected] and we will do our best to answer you ASAP!


What's next?

Having everything shipped out brings us to a close on this first issue of Paint The Town Red but, fear not, this isn't the last you hear of us!  If you are interested in keeping up with the work that we do you may follow us on these various platforms:

Currently we have a Kickstarter running for a set of Hard Enamel Pins based on Greek Mythology~!  If any of that interests you, we welcome you to check it out!  We've unlocked nearly all the stretch goals and have 5 days left of the campaign!

You can also expect another publishing Kickstarter for my series: Prism Knights (a set of short stories in the point of view of queer nights) set for September!


What about Paint The Town Red?

We have the second volume of Paint The Town Red planned for Kickstarter February 2020.  See you all very soon <3
