Kickstarter Success!

The Not-Safe-Space 2 Kickstarter Campaign has ended successfully. Thanks to all who pledged!

Now we get to wait 2 weeks while Kickstarter transmits the funds, and Scott can order the books, and send surveys to backers to get current e-mail addresses for the .PDF versions and mailing addresses for the physical books.

All of this should show up in June.

The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1

We're in another room in the King's Court. It's like an office, but not Reggie's private office. It looks more like a simple law office, with a desk behind which Reggie sits, with Babbette standing next to him holding something that looks like an iPad, which she's looking at intently. In front of the desk stand two individuals (Belters, otherwise artist's choice of gender, ethnicity, attire, etc.), one of whom is speaking to Reggie. They are plaintiff and respondent in an arbitration case. There are eight simple chairs arranged in two rows behind the plaintiff and respondent, currently empty
Caption (Reggie): 'Babbette started by doing some work for my church. She ran the docket for my arbitration, counseling services and micro-lending operation.'

Panel 2
Now Babbette is seated at the same desk. She has a church collection plate on the desk in front of her, and she is counting the various coins, cokens, notes, etc. while recording the amounts on her Pad.
Caption (Reggie): 'We pass the plate during church services, and I had Babbette count the donations and then go to the bank and deposit the funds.'

Panel 3
Babbette at a teller window at the bank, handing over an envelope stuffed with notes and coins, etc.
Caption: 'It was necessary to give her a position of trust, so she could prove to herself that she could be responsible.'
