3 hours left for @theCosmicbgr Kickstarter. We've already funded but barely. It would be great to get a few more backers and there are some great rewards available for those that support us.

If anyone's been holding off on backing this year's Kickstarter, a couple funders had to back out (for super reasonable reasons) and we're now scrambling for $900 in 3 days. Help!

If you want more stories like "I Will Get Her Back" by @AtSayre then help @theCosmicbgr out to publish more great stuff this year.
Haven't read it yet? Then do it now. It's flash that you can read in 5 minutes but the story will stick with you longer.

Last year’s backers at this level have all confirmed that said creatures:
1. Never ate them.
2. Became loyal companions.
and 3. Are definitely not controlling their minds.

Hey yo - last year we made these Cosmic Background fortune teller cards for the kickstarter. If we added them as a reward this year - what would you like the Cosmic Background to give you advice or predictions on?

Our Kickstarter is at $1200 in 4 hours. That figure goes to our lead artist Niv Sekar in exchange for the illustrations that accompany each story (and feature on our t-shirts, see attached). Your contributions are paying real, human artists. Thank you.
