“Because of the incredible response, we’ve been able to increase the page count of the book from 60 to 80 pages! That’s 4 covers, 66 story pages, and 10 pages of extras and other awesome stuff! Also: everyone who backs a reward that needs to be mailed gets stickers! Stickers all ’round!”
…and a bit more on Friday:
“Please note that the trade paperbacks included in all rewards at the $50 level and above will be SIGNED by Jonathan Coulton and Greg Pak.
