Almanac – Dama
March 12th, 2015This week’s Almanac is Dama, Great Spirit of Luck. I’ve referenced her a few times in the comic. Since we launched the Kickstarter for Volume 2 this week, I figured I could use all the luck I could get! Speaking of which…
VOLUME 2 KICKSTARTER IS NOW LIVE. Please consider helping us print volumes for Chapters 5-8. We need to raise $9,750 to cover all the costs of printing, shipping, and paying the artists. I feel very strongly that artists should get paid for the work they do. We’ve got some fantastic rewards available. In particular, there are some commissions from great artists who have either work on Snow by Night or are fellow members of Reverie Comics.

IT’S ALIVE! ALIVE! Well, live anyway. The Snow by Night Kickstarter for Volume 2 is now live! Please head over and take a look. Steph put together a great video for me that introduces the comic. We also put together a wide variety of rewards to entice you to become a backer. My thanks to Julie, Naty, Elsa, and Heather for their contributions for the higher tier rewards.

March 9th, 2015On Chapter 10, Page 19, Vivienne explains why she returned to Aradie even with a war brewing. It seems that once again Marguerite has set back Vivienne’s military career. You can read about the first time Marguerite did this in Losing by Winning. To see how Julie sketched out the next page (complete with her color commentary), please vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics.
I’m happy to announce that we will be starting our Kickstarter campaign for printing Volume 2 this Wednesday, March 11. The preview of the campaign is now available! Steph did an amazing job putting together the video and the graphics. The Kickstarter page lists all the rewards available, lists how the money is going to be spent, and gives a short introductions to all the people who contributed to this volume. Please check it out!
Almanac – Carnaval
March 6th, 2015At the suggestions of one of our commenters, I’ve turned my attention back to the festivals of Aradie for this week’s Almanac entry. This time it’s Carnaval. This winter festival is the highlight of the season for the children and daredevils in town. It was Blaise’s favorite holiday.
Only thing left to do for the Kickstarter campaign is the video. So we’ll be going live with that on Monday. My thanks to Steph, Julie, and Diane for all their assistance with it.
Chapter 10, Page 18
March 3rd, 2015Vivienne grills Jassart about what happened last time he was in the museum on Chapter 10, Page 18. Jassart tells the truth from a certain point of view. Controlling the message is a powerful tool.
On a different note, see what Vivienne would really would like during a late-night study session when you vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics.
More of the graphics are flowing in for the Kickstarter campaign. Go Steph go! The language for the page is done. Go proofreaders go! I’ll get all the rewards language done tomorrow. Go me go! We’re on track for our Monday launch for the Volume 2 Kickstarter campaign. I’m so excited to make this happen.

March 1st, 2015Vivienne and Jassart begin working through all those reference works in the library on Chapter 10, Page 17. Or at least Vivienne is. Jassart seems to be studying extracurriculars. They also have a bit of a discussion about Cienan. Any conversation about Cienan is always fun. To see what Jassart and Vivienne discuss next, please vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics.
We got a lot of stuff done for the Kickstarter campaign over the last week. I got the rewards mapped out and the language for the Kickstarter page done. Steph Stober of Final Arcanum is helping me out with the video. It’s going to be pretty sweet. That should be done this week and hopefully we’ll have a launch next Monday. Weeeeeee, so excited.
