Our Quest to Print Chapter Three
Hello everyone! You may have heard by now that we have started an IndieGoGo campaign to raise the funds required to print Chapter Three. I really want to thank each and every one of you for supporting our comic by reading weekly, visiting us at conventions, and just being amazing.
We consider Amya much more than a hobby, it is a passion. With your help, we would like to add Chapter Three to the issues we have printed so far. Please take the time to visit the IndieGoGo campaign, and see what the project is all about.
What We Need
As an independent publisher, printing comics at the level of quality that readers expect is financially challenging. We had fantastic support from our readers towards the print run of Chapter Two, and the campaign was a success. Chapter Three is the largest of the series to date at 76 pages; therefore the production cost is higher than the previous issues.
Because of recent medical concerns involving myself and continuing medical concerns surrounding my son, I have not been able to supply as much funding for the project from my own pockets as I have in the past. To compile these pages into a solid format that you can hold and cherish – we will once again need your help.
It is my hope that you will help me raise $2,500 of the cost to print Chapter Three. Anything we raise above that amount will aid in printing the project sooner, or add to the amount we are able to print.
What You Get
We have a number of pledges and rewards listed to the right on our IndieGoGo page. Please review the options and consider extending your support. Anything you give is appreciated – as every dollar pushes us toward our goal.
Some of the options include:
- Print and digital copies of the comic.
- Additional swag such as stickers and pins.
- High-quality spot-gloss postcards.
- A number of 11×17 posters.
- Limited edition printed canvas.
- Unique art cards.
- A chance to cameo in chapter four!
For those of you who are able to donate towards either the digital or print editions, we’re pleased to be offer five bonus pages of additional content!
Other ways to Help
If you cannot donate financially, please consider donating your time and sharing this project with another. It’s a great way to see this dream become a reality and is as simple as sharing our link on Facebook, Twitter, or Google+! Talk to your friends, e-mail your family - pollute your first date with chatter of Amya and make an impression! Well – perhaps you don’t need to go that far. However, every link to the campaign helps and we will be most grateful.
I wish to thank you again for taking the time to consider this campaign. Amya has been a real labor of love – and it’s our dream to see it to its end– is still 12 chapters away. I hope as we move forward on this journey you will continue to read and support our work. As I’ve said before, not only does our love for the project propel us forward – but your support. You make it all worthwhile!
With my warmest regards,
Savannah Houston-McIntyre
