You all surprised me by cracking the stretch goal already! I actually expected it to take till tomorrow morning, but what do I know it seems. :) 

The second stretch goal - an illustration for Fairy Yang and a character bio to accompany it has been unlocked! The enchanting martial sister of Long Wu Ying, our hero will now be created and added to the deluxe edition!

Super excited about this and we've booked a spot with the illustrator already, so it should not delay the book too long.

At the same time, we need to anounce the next stretch goal which is... paper upgrades!

This is only a small increase because, frankly, we want this upgrade. After looking at the proofs, we realised one of the major upgrades we need is better paper. It just doesn't give as much of a deluxe edition feel with the lighter weight paper, so we're upgrading to at least 120gsm here. 

Can't wait to see how long it'll take for this be cracked. :)

We're halfway to our second stretch goal of a brushwork portrait of Fairy Yang.

To celebrate, let's take a peek at Tou He...

Love Kickstarter? We do, too!

Here's a project we're following and you should, too: Daniel Potter is raising funds for the Collectors' Edition Hardcover of Emergency Shift, a paranormal fantasy about a lycanthropic paramedic.
