“He is reverent in the way he touches Jon: less a painter and his canvas, and more a sculptor with a slab of marble, to carve an icon for his god.” From “Graven Images” by Zalia Chimera, appearing in [pleasured exhalation], a jonelias charity fanzine. Preorders open through July 10.

A little less than three hours before I close preorders and start prepping the print job orders!

And that’s it, preorders have wrapped - with 114 total sales, which let’s be honest, is *way* more than I expected a jonelias zine to get. Thank you, everyone, you’ve been wonderful!

If you placed a PDF-only order, you should now be able to download the zine from the link in your order email. Unfortunately Etsy has been…less than reliable lately, and I require sleep, so I won’t be able to troubleshoot for ~8-10 hours. If you do run into problems, please do let me know, and I’ll get on it first thing in the morning.

If you placed a physical order, I’m working on ways to get you your PDFs! Hopefully also tomorrow.

Thank you all again, and look forward to shipping-process updates as print jobs start to roll in!

Do you have any leftovers for the zine?

At this point we’re not expecting to - we were able to order exact numbers from the printers, so there will only be a few overages to cover surprises, damages, and mod dyscalcula.

There *will* be leftovers of some of the merch, though, and if there are any zines left they’ll be posted in the Etsy shop at the same time (and there will probably be another round of PDF sales at that time as well).

Production update! Proofs have been accepted, zines are in printing, and merch has started to arrive! Stickers are HEAVY, y'all. I’m expecting to see charms and postcards by the end of the week, and shipping will commence as soon as zines arrive. It’s happening!!

Of you’ve had any trouble downloading your PDF copy, please try to message the shop through Etsy first, but feel free to reach out in other ways if you don’t hear back within a day; there have been some issues with Etsy messaging.

Packing has begun! Not shipping, because I’m still waiting for the cardboard backing I ordered so that the spines don’t get brutalized in shipping, but yesterday a friend came over and helped me separate everything out into piles and start stuffing envelopes.

Zine-only orders should start going out as soon as packaging either arrives (current estimate: July 19) or I find a replacement for same, probably around mid-week. Orders that include merch will follow shortly, and you should receive a tracking number when your package ships!

The etsy store isn't showing a pdf version for sale, is that correct?

Correct! When shipping has finished for the pre-orders, I’ll list anything that’s left in the Etsy store and the pdf will be available to purchase again at that time, too.

The first orders have shipped! In no particular order, unfortunately; it’s been a rough week and I figured getting them out was more important than being picky. Shipping will continue until it stops - I have many more charms to wrap and envelopes to seal.
