A lot of waiting...

Something I never anticipated or accounted for with this Kickstarter is how much waiting you've got to do...
- Waiting on books to be shipped to distributors (still ongoing?)
- Waiting for nameplates to be printed.
- Waiting for sticker packs to be shipped to Ireland and then sent by your parents to you because they don't ship to Finland.
- Waiting for t-shirts to be approved.
There's been a lot of waiting, folks and I am so, so sorry!
I sadly don't know how long this will all take, but things are happening; they're just moving very slowly.
Thank you again for your immeasurable patience with all of this.
Much love to you all,
The Ugly Goblin

Heya folks!
I had quite the epic moment this morning receiving the first EVER printed copies of the finished books 😱
They look AMAZING 😍 I couldn’t be happier 🥰
Thank you all so so much for all of your patience and support with this project so far. All printed books will be shipped out tomorrow to our distributer, CRWN Studios who will be sending them out ASAP once they get them! 😁
Also~ here’s a lil sneak peek at the t-shirt design I’ve worked on for those who have ordered t-shirts 😍
This design will be on the back of the t-shirts with this lil guy iver the front pocket…
I think is such and awesome design heheh (if I do say so myself) 😂
Designed by yours truly uwu
If you do still want to grab a t-shirt you can do so over on Kickstarter still using the shop button, or possibly still on Backerkit :D but act fast!!!
Much love to you all…
The Ugly Goblin 🥰

Hello folks!
(I have good news!)
I'm sorry I've been a little quiet, but sadly I haven't had much to share until now.
For the last month and a bit, I've been going back and forth with printers, tweaking and fixing minor issues that came up with the book. We've been meticulous to ensure everything in this book prints correctly, and it's been a significant learning curve for me.
MEGA TIP! to all aspiring book makers:
Don't build your entire book in Canva xD
It's been quite the task converting everything over to Affinity but I'm hoping that it will all have been worth it in the end.
I am writing this moments after giving the final go-ahead to start the printing process. I am so sorry that this has taken much longer than expected. Yet again, I've had to do a lot of learning here, but it's been an amazing experience.
I feel like all future Kickstarter projects will be a fraction as stressful thanks to the groundwork I have laid with this one.
Again, I thank you so much for your patience!
Much love,
The Ugly Goblin (Gabriel)
