I have gone ahead and written and printed Issue One. This will be a limited edition, only 16 copies being printed.
I mailed 6 copies:
3 to donors
1 to my parents, who aren’t allowed to donate (they give us lots of help & money already)
1 to someone who said she would donate
and
1 to someone who offered art in lieu of a donation
This has cost me in postage $3.70, including 2 stamps I have yet to use. Materials were on-hand, and time was about 2-3 hours of time, some of that more entertainment than work.
It has netted me a promise of a donation and an art. 🙂 I’d say I’m on the positive side so far.
(OTOH, I’m now obsessing about getting an icon for this…) Thanks, Anke!

By the by, don’t hesitate on my behalf to replace the icon with a better one. That’s really just a quick colour sketch. Not sure if you would hesitate, but I thought I’d mention. 🙂
But Ilove it! It’s adorable!
Donated! And got mine. It is full of SQUEE!
My card arrived today! Pretty snow flakes! Story related imagery! My education must have been sadly lacking. I don’t know how you make one of those.
make which? A snowflake?
