Help me break even on this project and donate copies to libraries!
Thanks to the incredible support of many dear ones, we've gotten to the point where the actual book design and printing will be covered. Now maybe we can raise the funds to ship extra copies to Germany, pay duties on them and donate copies to libraries, museums and archives! I'd also like to create an even more subsidized option!
Maybe I don't have to lose thousands making this book happen. That would be incredible.

I am ending the crowdfund two days early because it's so hard on my health! New end Oct 14 :)

I think we can raise enough funding for the book to happen, and I have to reserve time and energy to work on the design and layout with the printer. By November each year I'm starting to get much sicker, so I need every working day in October! I love you babies, this is such a miracle.

My shipping costs added to goal! When I set the goal, I didn't know StartNext makes users include shipping in their rewards. I thought I could charge shipping separately, like kickstarter. At just 36 physical book orders, with shipping from printer to fulfillment center to buyers and then some books all the way to Berlin, then onwards elsewhere in Germany... we're already in for 1,000 euros in shipping at just 36 books. So I had to raise the goal so we don't lose even more money on this project!
