Cosmogony: Dawn of a New Age Update

Hello, everyone!

First of all, let us apologize for the months of silence. As you know, we are all living through a difficult situation right now, and it has not been easy to plan anything in advance for some months now. We can only be thankful that this situation happened once all of our packages had been sent and delivered, so no one had to wait for longer than necessary for their Cosmogony book to reach them. 

However, we come here today with sad news: because of the pandemic, and the impossibility of sending out packages safely for all parties involved, we are forced to postpone left-over sales indefinitely. We have thought long and hard about this, and while we are sad to see some of our books and merch bundles still in a box instead of on their way to their forever homes, we believe this is the best decision we could have taken at this time. We hope you will understand our need to postpone left-over sales until it is safer to work again on our project. 

There is other news, though! 

Since we don’t want to hold on to the Cosmogony money indefinitely, we have gone ahead and made the donation to our charity of choice, the Global Heritage Fund. We were able to raise $2500 for this group!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH, EVERYONE!!! This wouldn’t have been possible without your overwhelming support of the Cosmogony Project.

Below is a breakdown of the project. 

If you run the end amount (2118,24€) through a converter app, you’ll see these a tiny difference between the final amount in this spreadsheet and the final amount donated. That is due to currency exchanges being different from when most of the payments were done! COVID-19 has made currency exchanges fluctuate a lot during the past months, but also, most of our payments were done at the end of 2019, so please keep that in mind! 

We will do our best to find homes for the remaining stock once this situation has calmed down a bit, so feel free to continue following the Cosmogony accounts (twitter and tumblr) for any updates that we might have for anyone interested.

 Stay safe and stay healthy!! Thank you again for all your support during the course of this project. <3

 See you!

I preordered my zine & I got the pdf but haven't gotten the rest, are you guys still in the process of shipping or should I have gotten it by now?

All zine copies have been shipped! However we have entered the holidays period, so there might be some delays. If you ordered a physical zine you should have received a tracking number in your email.

If you’re worried about your package, please contact your local post service and give them the tracking number we provided. All packages have left the country of origin by now, so the one who can give you more information on it is your country’s post service. If you’re unsure of what that might be, feel free to email us at cosmogonyzine (@) gmail (.) com with your order number and we will give you more information on that. We will not give important information such as shipping information over Tumblr asks.

Hope your package gets to you soon!

I was flat broke when preorders were open and was wondering if you are going to be having a leftover sale at some point.

We do have some extras yes! We don’t have a set date for the leftover sale yet however, so please follow or twitter (@cosmogonyzine) or this Tumblr for further updates on that next year!

Hello! Have you yet decided about giving people the option to pay with PayPal? Getting a bit nervous since it's only one week left ...

Hey there, apologies if there was any confusion - we are not going to be using PayPal due to their policy around pre-orders. We did look into what else is possible through Stripe, but we there wasn’t an alternative solution we could implement that works similar to PayPal. 

Apologies again!

The wonderful @cosmogonyzine is available for preorder now! If you like the snippets of Cosmogony we get in-game, you’ll love this, an assemblage of imagined lore and backstory in the same spirit.

I wrote a piece about the Long Night, those ten years of darkness that we definitely don’t get enough information about in-game. The above is a snippet from my piece, and check out the zine’s account for more previews from the other awesome collaborators!

Preview for @cosmogonyzine!

Since Aera is the one in the store previews, here’s Somnus from the other half of the spread. They’re such interesting characters, so I’m glad I got the chance to draw my take on them. 

Preorders open until Sept 23!
