Kickstarter Success!

The Not-Safe-Space 2 Kickstarter Campaign has ended successfully. Thanks to all who pledged!

Now we get to wait 2 weeks while Kickstarter transmits the funds, and Scott can order the books, and send surveys to backers to get current e-mail addresses for the .PDF versions and mailing addresses for the physical books.

All of this should show up in June.

Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter 2

The epic Not-Safe.Space story continues with Part 2, and Scott requires funds to publish a print volume of _Not-Safe.Space_ Chapter 2.

This large-format, 48-page trade paperback is a must for fans of Eithne Lamdagan, aka The CUSH Queen, and her friends

The campaign begins Sunday, April 6 and concludes Tuesday, May 8.

The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
Outside Wally's bedroom. His parents intercept him coming back from the bathroom.
Gus: Your mother and I would like a word with you.
Wally: I did all my chores.

Panel 2
Cut to the family living room. Gus and Mary-Francis sit on either side of Wally, on the sofa.
Gus: We're concerned about the amount of time you're spending on the Tanglenet.
Mary-Francis: It's just not normal.

Panel 3
Same scene.
Gus: You're always fixated on these obtuse, academic subjects – Italian history, Victorian literature, para-genetics, differential geometry – and now you're compiling traffic data from newzine announcements?
Mary-Francis: That isn't normal either.

Panel 4
Gus lays a fatherly arm across Wally's shoulder, as his mom takes his hand in hers.
Gus: Wally, to make a living out here on the frontier you need to acquire practical knowledge and skills, not all this useless … stuff.
Mary-Francis: We want you to have a normal life.
