We’re in the final HOURS (6. Six hours left to go) of the Kickstarter campaign for Alia Terra: Stories from the Dragon Realm, the book of queer/nonbinary/aromantic fairytales by Romanian author @avakellyfiction that I’m illustrating!

If you haven’t backed yet, but would like to, digital copies of the books start at $1, print copies at $20!

If you’ve already backed, don’t forget to upgrade your paperback to hardcover if you’d like to, and to check out our add-ons and “Hoard” reward tiers if you’d like some excellent extra stuff (dice! beautiful handmade Romanian bookmarks! more books!).

Also, I mentioned this on my facebook page but I’ll say it here too as we’re wrapping up! I know if you’re queer like me, or even just in the know, I probably don’t need to explain the significance of the queer, nonbinary, and aromantic aspects of this book . Thank you, I love you, you’re wonderful.*To friends, family, and followers that consider themselves outside of the queer umbrella (or who have never given such labels much thought)*:This book is for everyone. These are good stories. But this project is especially important to me (and to the author, Ava and to the editor Emily and the publisher Atthis Arts) because they showcase a different version of happiness that speaks to us *outside* of what we commonly see presented to us in fairytales- especially by mainstream media. Just because we use the words queer, nonbinary, and aromantic to describe these stories and characters doesn’t mean that you won’t find aspects of the stories that resonate with you or your loved ones! Despite the dragons- these are very human stories and I know that there’s something in them for everyone, queer or not.
