QUEEN MAGAZINE UPDATE! :)
Hello beloved friends! We wanted to give you guys a quick update. As you now know, Issue 01 was successfully printed.
As with any new business, we had a couple of hiccups along the way. They have all been sorted out now! The most difficult part for us was organizing the shipping for multiple reasons and we are listing them below.
1. Shipping cost - we had to wait until the TSA approved us as a "Known Shipper" through our international shipper, RR Donnelly. That took a lot longer than we anticipated. If we didn't wait, it would have cost us almost as much as we raised through our Kickstarter just to ship our international orders! Yikes! Fortunately, that is no longer the case.
2. International Orders - this was the reason there has been a hold up getting the magazines, etc. to you. We can tell you that they are on their way and because of the way they are uploaded to our shipper through Kickstarter's survey export options, we can't provide tracking. Going forward, we will be able to!
3. GOING FORWARD, ALL ORDERS ARE BEING SHIPPED OUT ON THE SAME DAY TOGETHER. INTERNATIONAL ORDERS WILL BE SHIPPED INTERNATIONAL PRIORITY AIR WHICH MEANS THEY WILL GET THERE IN JUST A FEW DAYS!!!!! YAY!
4. Domestic Orders - everyone should have received theirs by now!
5. Rewards - rewards are being shipped out separately. Many people did not respond to the survey so we've had to individually track everyone down. Now that we have, they are starting to be rolled out!
We want you guys to know that we have invested EVERY CENT pledged and a lot of our own capital above the amount raised to make sure that we delivered on bringing you guys the best product we could. <3 We couldn't have done it without you and we hope you are proud of us!

I for one tip my hat off to you Joshua and Miles. I think with the short time frames and limited capital, you've held yourselves steady and have produced an amazing publication. I can't wait for all future issues!!! ❤️ To you both and breeeeeeath �

Hi White Peacock Designs! That is because we just looked and you did not select a reward or pay the $5 for the shipping that is required for the 1st issue reward. We will email you right now to resolve.
