We have two hours left on the Girls on Games Kickstarter, and we are all so excited and proud of this project!
We have gotten quite a few emails about the signed copies of the book, asking how many signatures will be in it. Right now, because all of our contributors live in various cities around the world, we are going to do our very best to get as many signatures as possible.
However, if we are able to reach our $20,000 stretch goal, we will be having a book signing party at the GAMA (Game Manufacturing Association) Trade Show in March, where most of our authors will be attending. If we make it to that stretch goal, we will have all signed book levels signed by everyone who will be there!
So let's do our very best to get to that goal – we only have a few hours left!
Help spread the word by sharing the Kickstarter link on your social media accounts! We can do this!

Stretch Goals and Add-ons and News, Oh My!

Well, hello Backers!
Stretch Goals
We're six days away from the end of this Kickstarter campaign, and today opened up our new author, Julie Haehn, at the $13,000 stretch goal! As of this writing, we are 532% funded, and not only are we incredibly proud of that, but we are extremely proud of our tabletop game community and how it has embraced this project!
So, we now have a few more stretch goals to go, and next up is the talented Crystal Frasier! We really want to hear her story, as she is responsible for not only some of the best storytelling in our favorite worlds and beautiful artwork in projects both in and out of the game world, but she is the driving force and creator of of Shardra, a relatively new character in the Pathfinder RPG that happens to be the first transgender iconic character in RPG history, a step towards inclusivity and understanding that our industry has never seen before (not to mention an incredibly deep character with a beautifully rich background).
Add-Ons
We also want to point out that we have added a section about Add-Ons, as we've received many messages with special requests! You may now add-on extra books by pledging the extra amount needed to cover what you want: $10 for digital, $20 for the regular book, and $60 for the signed hardcover book, in any quantities, added on to any level. If you have pledged for a level that comes with a regular edition and want to upgrade to the signed hardcover, just pledge an additional $40 to cover the difference. We will be sending a survey out to all backers once the Kickstarter ends, and you can designate where the extra funds are meant to go at that time.
For example, if you have pledged at the $80 Art Lover's level and want to substitute a hardcover book, just add $40 for the upgrade for a total of $120. On the survey, you will designate "upgrade to hardcover" for your extra pledge funds.
Or, if you want to add a hardcover in addition to the regular book that comes with the $80 level, you would add $60 for a total of $140. On the survey, you will designate "extra hardcover" for your extra pledge funds.
If you are an backer outside the U.S., we ask that you add $5 extra shipping to each additional book of either kind to cover the extra shipping weight of the books.
Thank You!
Lastly, we want to thank all of our backers for all of your support, but we want to give a special thanks to the game stores and game companies boosting the signal and contributing to our book. One of these companies is Troll Lord Games, who are currently running their own Kickstarter campaign for the Amazing Adventures RPG, a Pulp Role Playing Game. It uses the Castles & Crusades famous Siege Engine for fast, quick game play! We've backed it, and you can check it out here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/676918054/amazing-adventures-rpg
We will be unveiling a few more surprises in the next few days, so stay tuned!
