Announcing our first book and Kickstarter!
The day of the big announcement is finally here!
After some thinking, calculations and consideration, I’d like to officially announce that the first book collection of Poison Ivy Gulch – Poison Ivy Gulch Saddles Up – is going ahead as planned! This first book will be a paperback of about 8.5 by 5.5 inches (digest size) in landscape format. More details are still being hammered out such as the exact page count; we’re leaning towards 104 pages total.
The exact content is still being decided too. While we will be collecting the early strips from 2020 and some of 2021, there is the possibility that this book will also contain 6-12 additional comic strips NOT AVAILABLE ANYWHERE ELSE as a print bonus!
The book will be published by Different Mousetrap Press of North Dakota complete with barcode, ISBN and Library of Congress Control Number. Deals are already being negotiated with a handful of retailers to stock the book.
So how will this book get printed? It will be crowdfunded via the site Kickstarter! The Kickstarter to fund Poison Ivy Gulch Saddles Up will launch on the morning of Wednesday June 1, 2022 and will end late night on Friday July 1, 2022. The print run will be about 1,000 copies.
There will be an active countdown here and on the Poison Ivy Gulch Twitter account so make sure you mark your calendars and ready your wallets!
