Thank you all! We have reached our goal and Hudson's story will now become a reality! We couldn't have done it without all your support, so thank you, thank you, thank you.

We still have until Thursday at 8am if you want to back the Kickstarter - some rewards won't be available after it ends!

Hudson Mudworth Thinks of Something @hudsonmudworth.bsky.social · Apr 7

We are 95% there and only $500 away! If you've already supported the project, thank you. If you haven't, you have 12 hours!

Share the project to make sure we meet our goal and everyone gets their books!

We passed the $6,000 mark and are nearly 70% of the way there! Thanks so much to everyone who has supported the project. We have until Tuesday to reach our goal, or no books get printed. Backing or sharing the project means a lot.

One week left!

On Kickstarter, if we don't reach our goal than everyone is refunded and no books are made. That means you can invest in the project at no risk to you!

If you can't support the project, consider sharing.

Thanks!
