March Bulletin~ 2022 (Patreon)

Hello Starlights! 🌟✨

This is Jen penning this month’s newsletter. This week started with a lovely surprise in our mailbox: the vinyl stickers and magnets finally came in! We’re really happy with how they turned out.  We were able to make the sticker a little bigger and now we think they are a good size to go on water bottles etc~ We’re also particularly fond of the Raziol magnet. It’s so like him to fall asleep on his table, probably dreaming about Sulvain and other worlds. We hope the magnets can be a delightful addition to your fridges, whiteboards, or anywhere a magnet can stick :D The goal is to get these and the postcards packed and ready to go over this and next week!

You all may have already noticed, but we’ve been adding some new perks for $10 and up patrons in the form of advance pages! Patrons in those tiers will be 10 pages ahead of the website. We have a bulk of pages coming this week, while $2 and $5 patrons will continue to be 5 pages ahead.

For $2 and $5 patrons new pages will show up in your inbox as “Updated”. So keep an eye out for those~ ✨

Starting April, we’re also planning to run a Patreon drive to increase Novae updates to 3x a week. The funds will be divided between our flatter and a new assistant colorist. With our current schedule it might be a bit of a struggle to reach 3 pages a week without more assistance, so if we reach our goal it will be a great help to speed up Novae! As part of the drive, we’ll be releasing a short bonus comic one page at a time with every milestone met. But more on that as the time draws nearer.

Finally we’re getting closer to the end of Chapter 11 and Book 2! We can’t believe we made it this far! This scene has been floating in our heads for 7 years and now it's finally happening. It’s all a bit surreal. We’re coming to a point where many paths converge and diverge and it's a major part of the overall plot of Novae. We’re gonna be giving it our all!

We honestly could not be here without you all and we’re so thankful to have you all in our lives. There have been a lot of difficult situations this past month, we hope you all can find a moment of respite despite the circumstances and please let us know if there is anything we can do to help.

With Love,

❤️Jen + Kate
