  • We now have 82 followers on twitter, 221 on Facebooks, and 36 on tumblr.
  • Our blogaround started. You can see Monday’s post over at Shift Journal, and the blogaround will last through January. We’ll be linking to the posts here as they apear. Let us know if you’d like to participate!
  • Speaking of blogging, we have blog badges! Take one!

We’ve also started to talk a bit more about the project as a whole. 

  • We’ve updated our project description on indiegogo. Check it out, and tell us what you think.

Oh, and we published our preliminary submissions guidelines for the anthology. Those might interest some of you.

Overall, it’s been a wildly successful week! Stay tuned to see what we have in store for this week—we’ve still got a lot to do. Fundraising isn’t over until March 15th—we’ve got some serious campaigning to do.
