Our Hiatus is Over!

Hello everyone! We are happy to announce that our hiatus is officially over. We have lots of updates, so please read on below the cut for more info:

Project Health Update:

We have a new internal deadline for art and writing: April 12th. Look out for pre-order announcements shortly after that date. We also have new finance, shipping, and productions mods.

Introducing our new finance and shipping mod: Nicky! Nicky has worked as finance mod on two zines and has a lot of experience running their own Depop shop. You can learn more about Nicky and their experience on their carrd.

Next, our new production mod is Seraphiiim! He has a lot of experience producing his own merchandise. He also has millions of eyes and they're all hunting for the best manus. You can learn more about him and his experience on his carrd.

Also, our new socmed mod, who will also be assisting with tarot production: ghostsjogging! He has experience producing his own oracle deck and has been in the zine scene a long time. You can learn more about him and his experience on his carrd.

Finance & Manufacturer Updates:

Our new financial sheet is completed based on our newly selected manufacturers. These manus may change, but we are likely sticking with them. All of the mods are feeling very positive & excited about the numbers.

Our preliminary lineup of manus is as follows:

MPC: Deck, custom magnetic box, and tarot cloth

Mixam: the A5 Compendium book

Various merch will be handled by a contributor with access to professional machines and Gotprint.

Other Updates:

We'd also like to introduce our new Art Mod who is here to help support our artists in finalizing their pieces. They have prior experience in art moderation and as a zine contributor. You can learn more about them and their experience on their carrd.

Lastly, we are looking for your opinion! We are currently running a mid-project interest check that closes on Feb 6th. Please share your opinion with us and spread it around if you'd like!

If you have any questions, send us a DM or a message on our retrospring. Thank you (and we appreciate you) for your continued support! We are looking forward to sharing the results of this really amazing project with you all in the future!
