THE BOOKS ARE FINALLY HERE!!! As some of you may know from my instagram stories - they arrived all safe and nice and I'm really so so so happy!!!
Some of you may recall that around this time last year I made postcards for the first time and honestly, I had a lot of regrets then because I knew shit about colors, paper type, and packaging and mailing, and I felt very embarrassed knowing some of you received your postcards all damaged, and since then I just really wanted to do things right for the zine. I've never knew the names of so many different kinds of paper, and it was so much trying to understand what looks and feels good, and how colors appeared differently for different paper and how many adjustments and corrections I had to go through to make this book the best it can be.
I'm really happy to have done this and learned so much in the process, and I am seriously considering making actual volumes for the comic and have actually shared this sentiment with the printer I worked with who has shared some ideas of the things I could do. But I am also very tired from all of this, so maybe in the near future, I hope.
I have some important news on shipping, so please read carefully!!
1. There will be no tracking for packages to the United States, Canada, Australia, Netherlands, Italy, Denmark, South Africa, United Kingdom, and South Korea. I will be mailing these as small packets, and I've learned from the post office that due to politics and whatever obscure reason, post office services in the countries listed above does not track small packets arriving from Taiwan. I sincerely apologize about this as I had communicated otherwise before without fully understanding the process.
2. Some countries/regions have been added to the list of shipping destination, these include: Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czechia, Ghana, Italy, and Hawaii!
Please understand that I'm doing this all alone and it's going to take me some time to package and ship all of this, which is close to 800 packages, of which I've mailed ~100. I will provide a post update when every package has been mailed, and if you would like to know if yours has been mailed, feel free to DM me as well. For those who will have tracking, I will send an email to you with the tracking code.
And that's all!! Thank you all so much for the patience and I really, really hope all of you receive your zine safely...!!! I packaged them very cute🥺 I would share pics but I also want you guys to be waow and surprised!!😭❤️ And please do tag me on socials when they arrive because I'd love to know they arrived safe!!
Thank you!!
