Dear Insane Children,
Font Lord here AGAIN.
Just wanted to run this past you.
We're thinking we want to change the $75 tier next year.
Starting from February (we think) we will be replacing the Chaos Necklace in the $75 tier to a Hysteria Rabbit plushie.

Dear Insane Children,
Ok, first off, I just want to say that I am very nervous about doing this... As a rule, I try to avoid sharing my Writing In Progress. Partly because I just don't like sharing unfinished work. But I've pointed out previously, that's hypocritical given that I am c...

Just a quick note to say that I am not dead. But I am dead busy.

As I continue to write through the narrative outline for Alice: Asylum, I've come to a point where the main scenes that define the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Act are written (or outlined and ready to be written)... but where there's room to explore the Series of Adventures that...
