Birthday Signup Reminder
Don't forget to add your birthday to our calendar if you haven't already! Why?1. At the Treasure Hunter & up tiers, you will receive an email the week before your birthday with a special discount code off your next order on my website.2. If you include your Amazon Wishlist, other Ruebees might get you a little special something for your birthday as well!But I feel weird asking for birthday gifts or posting my wishlist. It feels greedy.A L...
January Update
We have a few inventory updates: Pocket compasses & mini spyglasses are back in stock! If you've beenwaiting to grab one of those, now's the time! 17 inch Spyglasses are on their way out. As cool as these items are, they don't sell very quickly and everyone seems to prefer the smaller ones. So once they sell out, they're gone. We are no longer carrying the sextants. These are a bit expensive to ship and the last order we received ...
Bee Donations
Please forgive the lack of updates on this! I've set the donations to be automatically deducted every month so I often forget to post about it.I'm pleased to announce that our monthly donation to The Bee Conservancy (they had a name change to better reflect their efforts to help all bees) has risen to $300 a month! Things were a bit rocky there last year starting in August but we've stayed pretty steady & have gotten several people si...

In my enthusiasm to finally be able to contribute something to our game outside of playing my character, I completely forgot about saving it in a higher resolution or in b/w. Sorry about that! So w...
Next Snappy Dice Tray Design
Normally I like to poll you all to decide on the next Snappy Dice Tray design to release but as this will hopefully be available in February, I thought the Druid Rose would be perfect for it (plus, next month is my birthday on the first and this is one of my favorite compass designs other than the one I use for my logo).I'll poll you next month for March's design.

Building this together
I'm doing my best to spend this month finishing up all the small things needed on my website & getting ready to get back in full swing of map-making fun next month!

Spend time in voice chat with me for the holidays

As someone who has very little contact with their biological family, I know exactly how difficult this time of year can be.So I will be hanging out in voice chat on Discord for the following weekends if anyone needs someone to talk to, hang out with, just not feel alone, or just to share some joy: November 26-29th December 24-27th...

Closing the Map Queue
To the quick: I'll be shutting down my map queue. It's been over 3 year since I've been able to do my own projects.Will I open it again in the future? Yes. But not the same way it currently is. Once I feel better about doing them again, I plan on messaging anyone who is in the queue now and still a patron to do their map. It will be random and between my own projects.The long story: For those in it, I'm terribly sorry. This year h...

It's the nature of the business.However, if you plan on purchasing from my website for any holiday shopping, you're going to want to do it by mid-November at the latest. With the state of the Post Office & COVID, not only is shipping delays common, product creation is taking a bit longer...
