June Update (finish line in sight!)
about 1 month ago – Mon, Jun 29, 2026 at 09:16:36 AM

Greetings from the dust factory!

I have gotten the zine back from the Editor, and made the final tweaks.
I am waiting for one last piece from Matt, which will be ready any day now.

This means that all orders will be locked July 15!
Please make sure your shipping is squared away and you have added several add-ons!

If you have added The Earth Is Not Dying, you must send a screen shot to [email protected], confirming that you sent Marcia Howard $10 (you can read more about that here), in order to receive it.

PS tell your pals about the pre-order store here (also open until July 15): https://ground-to-dust-meditation-on-sacrifice-and-solo-rpg.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders

Until next time,
Kyle,
