GOOOOAAALLLLL!

Ok, so maybe the context is all wrong and I admit I know next to nothing about soccer (or football to folks outside the US), but this is still SO awesome. Today, the Allies and Enemies Kickstarter reached (and went slightly over) its goal for funding! Very excited! Thank you to everyone that backed the project. This is so incredible.

Geek Mountain State shout out

So this was a very nice email to wake up to this afternoon. (I work nights. Don't judge.)
I was contacted by a gent from an outfit called Geek Mountain State representing geekery in Vermont because of my outreach for Kickstarter support. I didn't know our kind existed in large enough numbers to congragate this far north of the Mason-Dixon. Nice! (And I like the banner on their website. Reminds me of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.)

In the tradition of Spaceballs....

Allies and Enemies - the Tshirt
I couldn't help but think of that Mel Brooks classic when I was working on the design for the Allies and Enemies backer reward.

All joking aside, I'm so very thankful and humbled by the response of backers to my kickstarter campaign to raise funds for professional editing services. One of the rewards for the "Commissioned Officer of the Regime" is this staggeringly beautiful and so well designed tshirt. (OK. I'm paiting it on a little thick there.)
It features the Regime standard that was created by the talented Alex Winkler. Cool, huh?
