Through the last full week of August, we are running a big sale on digital delivery of our first three issues, to encourage new readers to give Cartozia Tales a try.
Click over to our store, add the PDF versions of any or all of Cartozia Tales 1–3 in your cart, and use the coupon codes TRY1, TRY2, and TRY3. (Each code corresponds to one of the issues.)
You'll get issue #1 for free, issue #2 for only $1.00, and issue #3 for $1.50.
In other words, if you try all three, you'll get 120+ pages of superlative all-ages indie fantasy for just $2.50. I think you'll agree that's sort of an amazing bargain.
And if you like what you see, you can come back and use the code TRIEDTHEM to save $5.00 (more than your purchase price) on a digital subscription that includes all ten issues. You can also use the code CONSEASON to take 10% off the cost of any paper subscription that starts after issue #1.
We spent a lot ofJune posting behind-the-scenes details and other information to the Cartozia Tumblr site. You can see the whole bunch of them — process images, secret origins, and so forth — under the "Cartozia Days" tag. I'm particularly happy with the cluster of posts about our core contributors.
If you're a Tumblr user, I hope you'll reblog some of the posts that interest you. If you are a Twitter user, you can keep up to date by following @Cartozia. Cartozia Tales #7 is at the print shop right now, and it should be going into the mail by the end of the month.
UPDATE, July 21: Here's a very good Tumblr post that will go a long way to describing what's good about Cartozia Tales, if you're trying to wow a potential reader. Issue #7 is at Headquarters now, but our shipping department (Isaac) will be out of town until August 1 on a family vacation. We'll put it in the store when he's back!
