What are the risks associated with this project?
There are very few risks associated with the project. The art and story are complete, and the pages are in-hand. It just needs to be formatted and printed, which will happen assuming the the campaign funds.

What will the funds be used for?
Since the pages are complete, the funds will be used for printing and distribution of the book. Most of the funds will be used for printing costs, and if we hit certain stretch goals, we are planning for other formats, such as a Reading Rainbow-style animation and an audiobook of the poem.

What is the timeline of the project?
The pages are complete, so the next step is formatting, reviewing proofs, printing, and shipping. We anticipate rewards to go out in July, assuming there are no major setbacks.

When Will Shipping be Charged?
Shipping will be charged once we receive the physical proofs of the book. We are doing it this way so that we can calculate shipping accurately after knowing the weight and dimensions of each item. In the end, it, likely, saves you money.

What is BackerKit?
BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!
The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.
How does BackerKit work?
After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.
I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?
The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.
Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.
To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.
How do I update my shipping address?
BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.
When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?
That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.
I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?
As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
