If you haven’t seen me Kermit flailing all over social media already — our expedited set of pattern decks have arrived!

The bulk of our order is coming by sea mail, so they won’t be here until late July at the earliest. But we wanted to have some to show off at BayCon, where we will be among the Guests of Honor next weekend! If you’re a Kickstarter backer who ordered a non-gilt-edged deck, let us know and we can probably hand-deliver yours to you at the con.

They are so pretty, y’all. I was nervous because we’ve never produced a deck before, so many elements of the process were new to us, which always introduces the chance to misunderstand and screw something up. But no: they look exactly as gorgeous as we’d hoped, and super professional. This is absolutely a deck we can be proud of. And if you want one but missed out on the Kickstarter, we’re still selling them on BackerKit!

Back to petting my deck and trying not to behave too much like Gollum . . .
