[QUOTE="Shardstone, post: 8629313, member: 6807784"] Speaking as a small Publisher, its been really hard. My book is more then a year late. It was my first ever Kickstarter, and our printer got absolutely destroyed by covid. We've run a second Kickstarter that was on time, but our first book just recently finished mass production. Its a real bummer because, we had nothing we could do. We had already invested our money into this printer, and starting somewhere else would have set us back further given the shipping apocalpyse going on. But people were excited for our book a couple of years ago, not now. And I feel its really hurt our reputation and our chances at continuing the line, but what else could we do? So, while it may seem like everyone Kickstarter is scamming you, please try to understand that right now is a very difficult time for any project getting printed and shipped. [/QUOTE]
