BackerKit Surveys
We're excited to announce that the Rainbow Canvas BackerKit Surveys have been sent out!
You should have gotten a link to your Survey via your Kickstarter email. Anyone who hasn't received their Survey link can use the below URL to "recover" their survey:
Distribution of DigitalRewards has also begun! That means that you can finally read RainbowCanvas!!!!!!
Please note that you will not receive your Digital Rewards until your BackerKit Survey has been completed.
And please allow for up to 24 hours to receive the Rewards (most of you will get it sooner, but we've seen some issues in the past with a few hours delay from Survey Completion to Digital Distribution).
While most are able to access Digital Rewards without issue, we've heard from two backers who had trouble with the PDF they downloaded from BackerKit (the PDF is showing as blank pages). We're working with BackerKit to get to the bottom of this problem and why it seems to only affect some backers. But if you experience any problems with your downloads, please DM us on Kickstarter or email me at: [email protected] so we can send your Digital Rewards separately.
Physical Rewards
Rainbow Canvas has been sent to print and is currently moving along on schedule. We expect to receive the Physical books in early-to-mid August and will begin fulfillment as soon as we have them on-hand.
We'll post a separate Update when Physical Fulfillment is underway.
Final Chance to Check out our Current Kickstarters
Both of our current Kickstarter projects are approaching their end date, so be sure to check them out if you're interested!

Our Next Projects
While we have you, we wanted to take a minute to share our next Queer Kickstarter projects - both launching THIS MONTH!
Slice of Life continues with the moment you've all been waiting for...THE KISS! Our newest issue has an exclusive story from Lucy's past where you'll meet her first crush, a first appearance of a character who will have a larger role in Slice of Life #5!
And if you support the campaign at a physical level on the first 2 days of the campaign you'll be automatically put into a raffle for a chance to win our discontinued "Couple" Keychain featuring our leads, Lucy and Yuriko. So be sure to follow our pre-launch page!
And it's Pride Month so we wanted to give you double the queer with new Pansexual, Lesbian, and Non-binary pins! Our new campaign will also include our Slice of Life set, gay, trans, ace, and bisexual enamel pins.
We are also doing a giveaway for physical supporters that back the project in the first 48 hours. We will automatically put you in a raffle for a chance to win our Exclusive"Bi"Keychain.
I seriously love that this exists! An excellent way to put new talent on the map.
"The Book - In homage to Scott Snyder’s Best Jackett Press studio, each creator has taken a “jacket” as their prompt. Whether it’s a receptacle for a small treasure, a catalyst for a quest, or the wrong dust jacket on a mystical book, each creator ran with their ideas and crafted a cornucopia of short comics that are truly for any and all comics readers."
Do you like queer storytelling? Give a prose Kickstarter a shot!
"Space Wizard Science Fantasy is a queer science fiction and fantasy indie publishing company started in 2016 to publish William C. Tracy's books. Ten books, six years, a pandemic, and quitting a day job later, the publishing company opened its doors to more authors. Our intent has always been to showcase quality science fiction and fantasy stories with queer characters, because they don't get enough exposure in the publishing world."
