the power of snowflakes

Holy mackerel, people, I was going to post about the Kickstarter that Alex made to get our book going, but then in the five days that it took me to get up off my slouchy patootie we achieved our goal of $5,000! But as she so eloquently says, the party is by no means over. This project means a lot of incredibly exciting things, I don't have to tell you, things like truth and beauty (well...) and maybe even a light at the end of the tunnel for our pretensions of artistic careers (besides a pretty epic road trip around Oregon for the photoshoots...). But so far it is mostly a testament to the power of the small to achieve great things. So if you haven't heard of it, or if you haven't yet contributed (a-HEM), head on over already and help us to even greater heights.

(pssst, there are prizes.)

Thank you all, from the top and bottom of my heart, you help me feel a little bit more invincible.
