With 11 hours left in the Dumbing of Age Book 14 Kickstarter, we’ve unlocked the thirteenth magnet and final stretch goal at $60K! That’s right, it’s THE (not homoerotic at all) DREAMHORSE magnet! Clocking in at a relatively enormous 5.5″x5″ size! (that’s 14cmx12.7cm for all you still-free-world people)
Pledge at THE DREAMHORSE MAGNET tier to get a The Dreamhorse magnet along with your book! (And don’t forget you get a free DOROTHY magnet in there too!) Or if you’re aiming for The Dreamhorse plus two or four other magnets of your choosing, huzzah, there’s the PICK THREE or PICK FIVE MAGNETS tiers! And if you want all of them unlocked during this campaign? Well, there’s a few tiers that hand you COMPLETE MAGNET POWER!
That’s it! That’s the final update before… THE END!
Finish line at 11:45pm Eastern tonight!
Three days left in the Dumbing of Age Book 14 Kickstarter, and BOOM! The Lipsyncing Lucy magnet is unlocked at $55k!

Well, there’s a few tiers that hand you COMPLETE MAGNET POWER!
Unlocking next at $60K is… the final, thirteenth magnet: THE DREAMHORSE! It’ll be 5.5″x5″ which would be… probably definitely the largest magnet I’ve ever done. It won’t be to exact scale with the others, mind you, since that magnet’d be like a foot tall and wouldn’t fit in a book, much less a stamped envelope, but it’ll be to scale with… your BJ Cat magnet, if you have that one.
And just under three days remaining! This thing shuts down Tuesday night.
The Dumbing of Age Book 14 Kickstarter is finally past $50k! And that means JACOB is unlocked! Pledge at the JACOB MAGNET tier to get a Jacob magnet along with your book! (And don’t forget you get a free DOROTHY magnet in there too!)

Well, there’s a few tiers that hand you COMPLETE MAGNET POWER!
Up next are LIPSYNCING LUCY at $55K and…. DREAM HORSE at $60k! That’s right, it’s Dorothy and Joyce on a horse! Let’s make DREAM HORSE happen!
One week remaining! This thing ends next Tuesday just before midnight (Eastern)! So pledge today! or between now and then, whichever
