It's been a month since this funding began and so far it has exceeded my hopes by a significant degree. I am thrilled. Thank you so much for being involved, it is wonderful. I love the fact that somehting is happening because people want it to happen, not because commercial interestes think they might be able to make good on it. A blessing of the modern age, amongst the current political shocks and worries.
To say thank you, I have set up a discount code on my Etsy shop, so all of my backers can claim a 40% discount on any purchase you make between now and Christmas - go wild if you want to, it's all good for me as I will put 50% of my profits into the book funding too. This is in no way a bid to get you to back me further, just the only way I can think of to say thank you and offer something in return.
This is my shop: http://www.seventysevenseas.etsy.com
If you want to buy anything, when you get to the check out, underneath where it asks how you will pay is a link APPLY SHOP COUPON CODE. When the box opens, type or paste in PATRON and 40% will be taken off the price.
I hope you find something you like.
Best, Lulu
