NOT WITHOUT YOU ★ LIMITED DIGITAL EDITION SALE
Due to ***overwhelming*** demand, we are making the digital edition of NOT WITHOUT YOU available for purchase NOW through Thursday, April 27 at 11:59PM EST. Thanks to everyone who’s messaged us and we’re very sorry you didn’t hear about the Kickstarter until after it had ended!
If you’re holding out for a physical copy of the book, we will be doing a similar LIMITED sale of extra copies after we’ve distributed all backer rewards. Contributors will also be selling extra copies at various conventions throughout the year.

Backers, check your emails–the NOT WITHOUT YOU digital edition is LIVE! You should have received an email from itch.io with a download key, sent to whatever email address is associated with your Kickstarter account.
But that’s not all.
The books are shipping now from the printer’s factory in South Korea. While we don’t have a guaranteed deliver-by date yet, they ARE on the way! I’ll send out a backer rewards survey tomorrow (I think I’ve inundated you all with enough emails today) so we can start collecting everyone’s mailing addresses.
If your address changes anytime between now and when we email you with the final warning email, you will need to log into Kickstarter and manually update your mailing address.
Again:If your address changes anytime between now and when we email you with the final warning email, you will need to log into Kickstarter and manually update your mailing address.
Thank you again for all your support–we couldn’t have created the anthology without you all. ENJOY!

Sorry for the lack of Contributor Spotlights this week–we’ve been busy finalizing the layout for the book! However, we wanted to share the artwork for the final two stickers from @tchallabreadand@jackbrogers, featuring Starbucks and Shrinkyclinks. Next week, we’ll post a look at the photostrip bookmark by @kurozawa46 that will be accompanying all physical rewards!
We posted some teasers from the layout design process on the Kickstarter campaign page, so be sure to check that out here. Contributor Spotlights will resume next week. Thank you all again!

What are some of your favorite Stucky-related works that you’ve done?
[x] – I remember these headcanon/ficlets very fondly, because I had a lot more free time around that time, and for a few blissful weeks I managed to be quite productive and write a lot (or what qualifies as a lot for me, anyway. I’m a very slow writer). This one in particular was surprisingly easy to write, and I still like how it came out, which is a miracle in itself :P
[x]- I’m not sure this qualifies as ‘one of my works’, but when I saw that snapchat pic the idea just got away from me and I thought that a fic format wasn’t quite going to work as well, and to be honest I just had so much fun making it look like actual tweets and everything! Later I realized that probably not everyone uses as many tags as I do for everything, but people seemed to like it anyway, so… :D
[x]- I wrote this one as something entirely self-indulgent, because this image of Steve in the drivesuit popped into my brain and I just thought YES, and the idea of Bucky saying that line the first time they meet made me laugh. I almost didn’t post it because I didn’t think there’d be any interest, didn’t really expect anyone to like it… I was pleasantly surprised.
What do you most love about Stucky/the Stucky fandom?:
While I have other passions, and for some of them I had even read the occasional fic or two, I had never experienced anything like this. I was a Marvel fan, sure, but then The Winter Soldier came out and Steve and Bucky’s relationship just took a hold of me and wouldn’t let go.
I couldn’t seem to get enough of them so I got a tumblr and an AO3 account and started really experiencing fandom, and I don’t think my life’s ever been the same. This fandom was incredibly welcoming and kind to me right away, and so incredibly prolific and full of talent. I don’t think it would’ve captured me as successfully as it did if it hadn’t been for the sheer amount of fascinating meta and stunning fic and art.
There’s just so much talent and diversity and creativity that I can hardly remember what my life was before this fandom consumed my life, and I’ve met so many amazing people through it, some of whom are even some of my closest friends right now… it’s been truly a wonderful experience.
When was the moment that you shipped it?:
Like I said before I wasn’t really into the ‘fandom scene’ before TWS. Maybe if I had been I would’ve realized the way they were staring at each other during the pub scene, or how scared Bucky was of the possibility of Steve getting accepted into the army, or.
Alas, I wasn’t, so The Winter Soldier hit me right in the feels, full force. And it was beautiful.
Other fandoms/ships you love:
I’m not really into any other fandoms, but I’m a huge multishipper: I live for anything including Steve and/or Bucky x Happines, but most things Marvel are a win (especially anything with Sam and Thor and T’Challa because those 3 are the purest souls and my love for them is endless). I’m also weak for anything with other characters played by Chris or Sebastian, TJ Hammond in particular. <3
In any case, the way to my heart is through fanart, so if you give me a beautiful pic of whichever characters, I’ll probably board your ship and sail it with you to the end of days.
Viperbranium will have new stories appearing in NOT WITHOUT YOU ★ A STUCKY ANTHOLOGY.

We passed the $70K mark last night and there’s still 12 hours left to back! We’ll be adding stickers from Jack B RogersandTchallabreadto the pool of vinyl die-cut stickers (artwork coming VERY soon), and we’re also thrilled to announce that we’re working with several podficcers to produce an audio track to accompany the stories in the anthology (available to ALL backers–digital-only too!). More details to follow.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU to all of our amazing backers. This fandom is the greatest. We are so honored to share this book with you. And to be able to add so many awesome stretch goal bonuses, too!

What are some of your favorite Stucky-related works that you’ve done?
My favourite of my own works is The Therapeutic Qualities of Tequila, which I wrote because I adore Sam Wilson and the idea of him and Bucky bonding over too many shots was just too tempting. But I also loved collaborating on parts of the Scrapsseries, as both a writer and artist. (They didn’t ask me to do art, I just got carried away.)
What do you most love about Stucky/the Stucky fandom?
Oh, too much to pick just one. There are some incredible talents in this fandom, as writers, artists and fans who write amazing meta. But I do really love the crowd of people who comment on and rec fics regularly – they’re the ones who really make the fandom feel like a community.
When was the moment that you shipped it?
I read enjambament’s Stucky ficbecause she is an irl friend and my fic guru, and was instantly lost.
Other fandoms/ships you love:
Marvel is my main fandom, and Stucky are my go-to pairing, but I like giving other ships a try if they’re well thought-out. Charles Xavier/Eric Lensherr is p. good, though I’m not so into them that I know their ship name (do they have a ship name? they must do, right?). I have a soft spot for Clintasha and I adore Steggy. And I also ship Bucky Barnes and happiness.
Lauren will have a new story in NOT WITHOUT YOU ★ A STUCKY ANTHOLOGY.

FAQ
Why is the book more expensive now than it was during the Kickstarter?
The more expensive Kickstarter tiers offset a number of costs associated with producing the book, including extra shipping expenses (see next point). We don’t have that option for this sale. The Kickstarter price was initially set around a 300pp paperback book, but the finished product is now a 350pp hardcover.
Why is the international shipping so expensive?
Unfortunately, international shipping is by weight, and the book must be shipped at the 5lb rate including packaging. We’re still charging less than the actual international shipping cost and aiming to offset it with the book price (see above). If you have the option to ship a book to a friend or forwarding service in the States, I highly recommend it.
When can I expect to get my package?
Orders will ship weekly on a rolling basis every Thursday evening. If your order is received by 2pm EDT on Thursday, it will go out that night. If it is received after, it will go out with the next week’s batch. You will receive an email with tracking information when your package ships.
Can I purchase the digital edition of the anthology?
Do you have any of the backer rewards available for purchase (posters, charms, stickers, prints, etc)?
Sorry, no. Those rewards were for Kickstarter backers only.
I’m a Kickstarter backer and have a question about my order.
Please message us via the Kickstarter messaging system so we can more easily track down your order details. If you have not received your package, the most common reason is that:
- You never provided your shipping address in the backer reward survey
- Your package was returned with an incorrect address or returned unclaimed
- You did not respond to a request for the Romanized version of your shipping request
