Strong finish! + What's next

Hello! Thanks to all of you, we finished strong with our campaign, ending at 13k last night. While we didn't hit our tarot card stretch goal, this campaign had a very strong performance (in my opinion) for a new series. While this is only my 4th nsfw launch on Kickstarter, and it's easy to look at other nsfw series and see them earning much more, I have a simple metric I use to judge a project's success:
- Did it make enough money to pay for itself with some cushion?
- Is this a story that I (and my collaborators) are excited to tell?
- Is there a swell of enthusiasm from the readers/backers around the project?
In this case, all three are an absolute YES! So, I'm incredibly happy. We are thrilled to be making this book, and we WILL be continuing with the full run of Time Spells (a total of five issues).
What's Next?
Here's what you can expect moving forward:
- Over the next week Kickstarter will attempt to automatically collect all the pledges. If your pledge fails after a week, you will still have a chance to fix it on the Backerkit survey.
- I will be sending out the Backerkit survey for this project (hopefully) by the end of February. I've been getting better at making Backerkit surveys, especially for these NSFW projects, so I'm hoping there will be fewer delays and back and forth with the Backerkit team on this one. Once you get the survey, you can select any extra add-ons you want (including all covers from Sex Spells #1-3), upgrade cover selections, answer a few questions, and pay for shipping.
- I expect us to wrap art and production on this issue by mid-March, at which point we will immediately send everything to print. We are printing with a domestic (US-based) printer, so I expect to have all the books in hand by early April.
- Once I have books in hand, I will lock down addresses on the Backerkit survey, at which point you will have 48 hours to confirm your address or change it if you have moved. Then, I will begin shipping out rewards. My current estimate for completing fulfilment is late April, though I set the delivery deadline for this project to June just in case there are any delays with printing or shipping.
- Once all the rewards for both this campaign and Sex Spells #3 are delivered to backers, I will begin promoting the launches of Sex Spells #4 and Time Spells #2, which I am currently hoping to launch sometime between May and July.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you so much for your support, as always.

10k! + Another project to check out
about 1 month ago

Hello! Yesterday we reached 10k, which is an incredible milestone. I am still relatively new to the erotic comics space, and I'm still honestly titillated (pun intended) to be getting this much enthusiasm and support. Allen and I are building something really cool here, and I'm so happy you're helping us make it happen.
We are closer than ever to reaching our 15k goal of unlocking the tarot card for all physical backers. Here's a look at that card again:
While I'm here, I wanted to give a shoutout to a campaign by another creator on the platform.
When I think about the success I've achieved here, and how far I've come since starting my comics journey in 2016 (this is a pen name, for anyone not in the know), it's impossible not to think about the creators who paved the way for that success on the platform. When I first started out I would reach out to people who were already killing it and ask for advice. I'm sure this was incredibly annoying, but one person maybe more than any of the others took time to answer my questions and help me become a better creator. His name is Pat Shand.
Space Between 10th Anniversary Special
Pat just launched a campaign to celebrate his company's tenth year of publishing indie comics on Kickstarter. This campaign is a total celebration of everything they've done, and it features several new stories from Space Between's most popular titles.
The book features new stories from Destiny, NY, Wild Wisps, and Afterglow, and more. I have personally enjoyed all of these series as both a fantasy adventure fan AND a fan of Pat's writing, and honestly if you like Sex Spells I think you'll dig Pat's stuff.
If you're interested, you can check out the Space Between 10th Anniversary Special Kickstarter here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/patshand/space-between-10th-anniversary-special
That's it for today. I'll be back soon with more updates.

Two great projects to check out!

Hello. Today's update is just a shoutout for two projects by creators I personally like a lot, and who I feel have paved the way for the work I'm doing with Time Spells and Sex Spells.
Beast and Snow #1-4
The first issue of Beast and Snow was the first NSFW comic I saw on Kickstarter that made me think that erotic comics could fit the style of storytelling I care about - genuine, heartfelt stories with deep character relationships at their center. It's largely because of Kat and Phil's work on this series that I decided to start working on Sex Spells with Allen and Dorilys.
Here's the description from the Kickstarter:
"The Beast and Snow #4 is 30-page NSFW Queer Werewolf/Vampire Fairytale Romance with a ton of action, sex, and even a bit of comedy - brought to you by Kat Calamia & Phil Falco with art by Dorilys Giacchetto.
If you're a fan of Vampire/Werewolf Supernatural Romances, new twists on old Fairytales, and/or NSFW Queer Stories, then this is the comic for you!
This final issue is little extra sized to for a banger of a finale!"
Here's the link: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/comicuno/beast-snow-4
MOTHERFUCKIN' MERMAIDS: A NSFW One-Shot Adventure
The latest erotic comic from Bad Bug and Mike Tener will almost certainly be ridiculously fun. Mike and I go back a long ways, and I've always known him to choose winners. This one looks no different. He's being all cryptic about this comic and not revealing the plot, but I think we can assume it is about sexy mermaids.
Here's the link to the campaign: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/midnighthighway/motherfuckin-mermaids
That's all for this update. I'll be back when we (hopefully) hit our first stretch goal!

Funded! + New Add-Ons + Stretch Goal
about 2 months ago
– Wed, Jan 21, 2026 at 06:48:36 AM
Hello! We funded in about 12 hours. Thank you so much for your support. We were nervous about launching a companion title to Sex Spells, but the support day one has been just about equal to the day one support for the last couple issues of Sex Spells, which we see as a phenomenal sign that we are doing something right.
At the request of a couple of backers, I went ahead and added all the Nice and Naughty covers in their holofoil and metal variants as add-ons to the campaign. If you'd like to add any of those as extras, you can edit your pledge to grab them. :)
Note that all holofoil and metal covers are virgin (textless) covers.
Now that we've funded, we can look forward to our first stretch goal at $15k, which would unlock this awesome Moon Tarot card illustrated by series artist Cammry Lapka for all physical backers:
That's all for today. I'll be back soon with more updates!
