SIX DAYS LEFT IN THE EPIPHANY FUNDRAISER! To drum up some interest, we visited the zoo a few days ago and tried to “viral market” it to the animals! IT DIDN’T DO A DAMN THING, THOUGH, BECAUSE IT TURNS OUT ANIMALS DON’T KNOW WHAT THE INTERNET IS.

Tom Spurgeon talked about the Epiphany fundraiser on The Comics Reporter! Check out the third asterisk down.
“Make or break” is a pretty good way to put the state of affairs right now with the fundraiser, as we’re 11 days out from the deadline and we still haven’t hit the halfway point yet (currently we’re at $2,198). Have no fear, I’m gonna keep promoting the whole thing where and when I can, but I’ve got to emphasize how important it is that you guys keep doing the same.
In the event that we don’t hit the goal, though… earlier tonight I requested quotes for smaller print runs (150 and 200) of the full CMYK books, as well as a run of black and white books. Ideally, thanks to Indiegogo’s Flexible Funds option, I’ll still be able to fulfill all the orders of everyone who’s donated so far; it’s just that I won’t have as many to sell at conventions, to stores, and on my website after the release date. It does feel crummy to start drawing up failure contingency plans, but after everything is over, I want to make sure I’m not cheating you guys out of what you ordered.
More news to come!
Reblogging on the main news site!
New Epiphany page up on http://ianjay.net! I’m getting the weirdest feeling I’m repeating myself here.
ALSO, FUNDRAISER UPDATE: we’re currently at $2,198! Slowly but surely, we’re moving towards that 5K goal. Thanks to everyone who reblogged our two BIG POSTS yesterday, too!
![Okay, so HERE’S the big announcement I was talking about: We’re HALFWAY through our Epiphany Print Fundraiser, and we’ve already raised $2,133 as of the time of this writing. That’s more than we raised for last year’s fundraiser in half the time, SO HEY, WE ARE DOING AWESOME! However, we’ve still got $2,867 left to raise in the next thirteen days, so I’m going to be ESCALATING to STRONGER MEASURES in this last crucial almost-fortnight. MEASURES THAT INCLUDE:
A banner ad on FurAffinity, to appeal to the furry crowd! (If you use FA, keep an eye out for it. It’s the really maroon one.)
Project Wonderful ads, to appeal to the webcomics crowd! (Who, I’m hoping, don’t have Adblock turned on. Ahehehhhhh.)
More frequent updates on my Facebook fan page, to appeal to… family members and estranged friends from high school!
A NEW Pinterest account! Pffffttthhbbbbtttthh, psyche.
AND FINALLY, FOR ALL CURRENT AND FUTURE DONATORS AT THE FIFTEEN DOLLAR LEVEL OR ABOVE: a SECRET SURPRISE GIANT SIZE FUN-PAK GIVEAWAY!
Yes, if you donate or have already donated at least fifteen dollars to the project, we’re entering your name in a RANDOM DRAWING to win a FULL $125 donation perk package! That includes the printed and digital book, all four buttons, the candle, the tote bag, the t-shirt, an original inked page…. AND A SECRET ONE-OF-A-KIND CUSTOMIZED MYSTERY ITEM!! I really honestly am not yanking your chain with some sort of dopey gag prize, either. This is something you will want to CHERISH in an honored place in your home… maybe forever.
ONE CATCH, THOUGH: The more you donate, the better your chances are of winning. All donations up to and including the $20 level get ONE ENTRY; donations between $21 and $40 get TWO ENTRIES; donations between $41 and $80 get THREE ENTRIES; and donations between $81 and above get FOUR ENTRIES. Not to say I’m encouraging gambling here, BUUUUUT the more cash you lay down, the more chances you have to win. So yes, I guess I’m encouraging gambling. (Except without any skill involved.) (And not illegal.) (Hopefully.)Before I go, I really, really want to emphasize the exclusivity of the books and merch I’m making for this fundraiser. Once the three hundred copies I print are sold out, they’ll be unavailable indefinitely, until I can either find a publisher or an unexpected excess wad of capital to re-print them with. The votive candles, the tote bags, the t-shirts— I’m producing this merch at very small quantities, without much intent of reprinting it unless the demand is SUPER high. Now will most likely be the only time you can get this stuff, so be sure to donate before time runs out!http://igg.me/at/epiphany-printhttp://igg.me/at/epiphany-printhttp://igg.me/at/epiphany-print
