Escape From Terra is updated with new pages every Monday through Friday.

Kickstarter successful and closed

The Kickstarter campaign for Not-Safe.Space Chapter 3 concluded successfully on April 21, and Scott extended the time allowed for late pledges until May 19.

Books have been ordered from the printer and Scott will be spending the next week or so setting up and sending the PDF files to those who asked for them.

(There are still six of you who have not responded to the survey asking for e-mail and snail-mail addresses, he'll do the best he can.)

Thanks to all for supporting this Kickstarter!

Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter!

UPDATE to the UPDATE: The problem has been solved, all rewards are now available. I've extended the campaign an extra day, to April 21. Thanks for bearing with me!

UPDATE: There has been some strange glitch in the Kickstarter launch, so Scott is cancelling the campaign temporarily and will re-start as soon the cause of the problem can be determined and corrected.

Scott is gearing-up for his third Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter campaign!

(Not-Safe.Space is Scott's sexy spin-off of QUANTUM VIBE.)

For those of you who haven't signed up for one of the NSFW Patreon tiers, this will be the best way to get in on the action for a very reasonable price.

Go to THIS link. The campaign starts March 16 and runs through April 20.

The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
Tall panel. Medium shot of an obviously 'tourist' family – dad is wearing a Hawaiian shirt, with knee-length shorts, knee-high socks, and a 'fanny-pack' slung under his gut. Mom is wearing a big floppy hat and is carrying a large travel-bag, and has a death-grip on the hand of the younger (male) child, who himself is straining to get away and find something interesting. Completing the ensemble is the bored teen-aged girl. They are in the Ceres Spaceport lobby, with the transparent ceiling overhead.
Caption: The slang term 'Beanie' was used for both tyros and tourists in the Belt.

Panel 2
The Tourist Family in a gift shop, being proferred an 'Official Belter Beanie' by the clerk.
Caption: It referred to the 'Official Belter Beanies' sold in tourist shops in every community in the Belt.
Caption: It's an on-going source of amusement for Belters, who would never wear one.

Panel 3
The Tourist Family strolls along Ceres City's main street, Dad and Son proudly sporting their beanies (Mom keeps her floppy hat though Daughter is made to wear one, and looks really annoyed about it). Locals watch them pass by and snicker to themselves.
Caption: Everyone plays along with the gag until the buyer figures out he is the butt of a Belt-wide practical joke.
