With Updated Info about Regular Orders!
I’m taking
pre-orders for The Yeti Book!
The Yeti Book is a Doctor Who Second Doctor children’s book fan project I made in 2010-2011 and sold at my first Gallifrey One convention. You’re looking at the first eleven pages in the photoset. After these intro pages, it’s a sweet little story about the Doctor and his companion Jamie meeting a Yeti. It’s essentially a children’s story book, and every page is illustrated with my watercolors. Most of my copies went to adult collectors, but it’s been purchased for a few nieces and little siblings too!
I sold out of them pretty much right after the con and have been asked several times when I’d be reprinting them! Now is that time!
I need at least ten pre-orders to be in a good position to do this, but I’ll be printing more than those ten, so don’t panic if you can’t pre-order right now.
I’m asking for $20 (US funds) to pre-order a physical copy for the first ten people. If you’re one of those people, there’s no charge for shipping within the US and Canada once they come in! This is 10 dollars cheaper than the price for these the first time I printed them! (I will still ship outside of the US and Canada, but I can’t take the hit for the shipping, sorry!)UPDATE: Pre-ordering is over and all the pre-order books are mailed and delivered. The free shipping/free print deals are done. Thanks to everyone who ordered!I now have several of the physical books and can let a few more go before I have to keep the rest for sale at Gallifrey. They remain $20US, but you must pay shipping costs now. US and Canada shipping is $3US, and international shipping is $7.
If you’d like to order, send an email to ladyyatexel at gmail dot com with ‘Yeti Book Order’ in the subject line. In the body of the email please include your shipping address, how many books you’d like, and your PayPal address if it is different from the one you use to email me. I’ll send you an invoice as soon as I receive your order. All payment is handled through PayPal, so please be sure your PayPal info is up to date.
33 pages in full color, 8.5 by 5.25 inches, with a stiffer cardstock cover, held together with two staples. At least two of the pre-order books went to real live children under 4 and both have asked for several repeat readings. So far, I’ve heard no stories of ripping or tearing!
All the images you’re seeing here are from the book too, and, as an added bonus, the book has the endorsement of one Mister Frazer Hines:
The signed version is my own personal copy and is just shown for size and Fun With Frazer. No signatures appear on the copies you would receive. There you can see that even the disclaimers and acknowledgements page has an illustration~ There are no pages in the book that don’t have at least one image.
I don’t have an exact timeline for the arrival of the books since that is largely dependent upon when pre-orders come in, but I imagine you’d have a book within 30 days. (For future reblogging reference, today is the 29th of April, 2014.)If you would like a digital copy, and/or would just like to support me, head over here to Ye Olde LiveJournal for details!
