HUGE COUPON SALE!

WE'RE MOVING! Before the end of the year, we're moving into a new place that has an office so we can finally stop working in our living room.

I don't want to have to move all the books and merch with me, so I'm running a huge coupon sale this month.

Check out this amazing project and help support queer people telling their own stories <3

I'm tired of looking for stories from trans and intersex sex workers and finding far more instances of people speaking over us than instances where we get to speak for ourselves. We're 20% of the way to an anthology seeking to combat that!

A picture of the Kickstarter page showing the project is £3251 funded out of £15700 with 77 backers and 27 days to go.

Officially now a "project we love", and we're slowly but surely getting closer to the goal! There's 25 days to make it, so please shared Transactional Intercourse with your friends and acquaintances and anyone who cares about sex workers!

Set an example for the rest of the world; don’t sell out at the first opportunity to exploit your workers.

Nova & Mali @novamali.bsky.social · 6d

We hope the executives and the board can come to an agreement with the union sooner rather than later, and come to the understanding that supporting the very people of your business will only benefit Kickstarter.

Nova & Mali @novamali.bsky.social · 6d

Using a flimsy excuse to demand an extra day of work for the needs of the business completely overrides the company culture of a work life balance, especially for no additional compensation

Nova & Mali @novamali.bsky.social · 6d

In a world where we, as creatives, are constantly fighting for our basic rights and the financial means to live, it stands to reason that the very platform we use to sell our work should support our goals as well.

Nova & Mali @novamali.bsky.social · 6d

We stand firmly with the union’s extremely reasonable demands for a 32 hour/4 day work week, and creating a minimum and livable wage for your lowest paid employees.

We’ve worked with over 500 artists from around the globe; you will find many of their signatures attached below in support of Kickstarter United.
