We're in the last day of this campaign and we're at 98% of goal.  W00T!

Thank you so much for backing this project.  To make sure it succeeds (remember, Kickstarter is all or nothing) please share the campaign one more time on social media or by email and convince a friend to kick in that last $30 or so dollars.

Thank you for all your fabulous support!

Revisit your Muse

Exciting news! We have just booked the Lodge at the Old Dorm on Bowen Island for (what is now) our annual New Years Writing Retreat!

Join us for three days of luxurious accomodation, gourmet food, and writerly company on beautiful Bowen Island BC, from the 8th to 10th of January 2016.  The full schedule for the retreat is available on our website. 

Last year's retreat was a wonderful experience.  All the attendees wrote at least 3000 words (and some many more), worked through blocks, and left with fresh inspiration for the writing year ahead.

Choose the $850 reward to pamper your body, enliven your mind and nurture your muse while you write with us for a whole weekend!

The Home Stretch

In the last two days the campaign has shot up from just under half-way funded to two-thirds, thanks to our wonderful backers!

Now we need your help to get the word out to cover the last third.  Please tweet, pin, email and share this campaign.  The more people who see it, the more likely we are to pull in that last 32% and put colouring books and issues of Pulp Lit in our backers hands.

Together we can do it!

Here's another beautiful preview page, this one coloured by the talented Sandra Vander Schaaf.  You've got until Sunday to get 'Magpie', 'Michael', or 'Lost Lady' as an earlybird reward!

If you like these coloured preview pages, be sure to leave a comment here to thank and praise the artists!

The Early Bird Gets the Early Reward

We sent sample pages out to a few select colourists for review.  Here's the first one back: a gorgeous rendition of 'Michael', coloured in gel pens, coloured pencils and sharpie by Donna Phillips-Jackson! 

Within Colouring Paradise there are a mix of very intricate densely-filled pages and those with more white space to allow your own creative ideas to unfold.  We love the sparkling golden rays fanning out from Michael's halo that Donna has added to her version.

If you can't wait to get your hands one of Mel's lovely illustrations to colour for yourself, we have a special offer for early backers:  anyone who pledges $10 or more before Sunday November 8th will be sent a sample pdf of either 'Michael', 'Magpie', or 'Lost Lady' immediately. 

That pdf is yours for free, whether our campaign succeeds or not, as a thank-you for backing us early!

Happy Colouring
