The Margins store is back in business! Zora has recovered and is ready to ship your holiday packages. To celebrate their regained mobility (and Black Friday, we guess), everything on our Gumroad is 25% off with the offer code “2020.″ The sale will run through Tuesday, December 1!

✨Click here to head on over! ✨

Items ordered before Friday, Dec 4 will ship on Sat, Dec 5, and items ordered before Friday, Dec 11 will ship on Sat, Dec 12. The last day for US orders guaranteed to arrive by Christmas 2020 is Friday, Dec 11!

Hey hey! The 2020 holidays aren’t REALLY over, so we’re extending this sale until the 2020 Christmas shipping deadline of Friday, Dec 11! That means the “2020″ discount code will keep working until then, and then all orders will ship out on Dec 12.

Dates Volume 3 has been nominated for an Ignatz award!

We’re both so profoundly honored and proud of all our contributors. They poured their hearts into their stories and illustrations and made this book something that can stand alongside those other incredible names.

Voting for this award is open to the public, and ends on the 9th, so if you’ve enjoyed our tales of joyous historical queerness, maybe click this link to be sent a ballot! And if you haven’t checked it out yet you can do so here.

And of course thank you to everyone who backed this book on Kickstarter and helped bring it to life.

Much love,

Soooo the anthology I did an illustration for is nominated for an Ignatz award. I’m still so grateful that I got to be a part of it and the fact that it’s being featured alongside all these other great works by artists I admire feels unreal. Thank you again to @dates-anthology for allowing me to contribute and for being such awesome collaborators.

A thank you illustration I did to send out with contributor copies of @dates-anthology 3! Featuring the book’s cover girls.

AAAAAND wrap! The Dates 3 campaign is over!

That’s it, that’s all, it’s over! We’re closing out the campaign at $36,573, which means we didn’t QUITE hit our second stretch goal, but we got close enough that we’re absolutely going to go through with the second page rate increase for contributors and… well, we’ll see what we can do about that bonus comic. 

Up next for us is prepping, proofing, and printing the book, as well as paying all our contributors once Kickstarter deposits the funds in our account! We’re also going to finish setting up our Crowd Ox page so that backers can add extra stuff onto their pledge and folks who missed the main campaign can slip on through before fulfillment. 

We’ll be updating backers as we go, but stick around here and follow our twitter for quick little tidbits, previews, and photos as we go along!
