Stupid question, but could I buy both a physically full bundle and a digital nsfw one?
Hello there!
You can indeed buy a full physical bundle and the NSFW digital zine- when you order a copy of the full bundle, there are several variants available to choose from (prices will vary to reflect which variant you choose and what it includes). From there, you can choose either:
- The full bundle (on its own)
- The full bundle + the SFW PDF
- The full bundle + the NSFW PDF
- The full bundle + both PDFs
Hope this helps!

Does the physical zine include both the sfw and nsfw content? I’m slightly confused about the pdf add-ons. Are they the exact same as the physical or are they additional?
Hello, and thank you for your question!
The physical zine contains only the SFW content; all NSFW content is featured only in the digital NSFW add-on. The optional PDF add-ons feature the same content (i.e. the SFW zine PDF contains the same works as the physical zine)- if you were to opt in to buy both PDFs, you would be able to download the digital copy of the zine and add-on to access anywhere. Hope this helps!

hi, with the digital main SFW zine, and the digital side NSFW zine. Does it work like the NSFW is an add on so I'll need to buy BOTH to get all the content, or is it like the NSFW zine includes the SFW stuff AND the nsfw stuff so I only need to buy the one?
thanks and sorry if this has been explained before <3
Hello, and thank you for your question!
The NSFW add-on contains only the additional NSFW content; it does not include the SFW works featured in the main zine, so to get all the content available, you would need to buy both PDFs. Hope this helps!

Hi! Is there a chance you’ll be selling a merch only bundle/just the tote bag? Thank you for your efforts and consideration.
Hello, and thank you for your question!
At present, the only bundles we will be selling are those currently available via our Big Cartel storefront; individual items are not currently being sold outside of the bundles they are available in.
When we enter our leftovers sales, if any merch items were ordered in excess of demand, they will be available for purchase. However, there is no guarantee that there will be leftover stock for any particular merch item or in general, nor is there any guarantee that items will be available to buy individually during leftover sales. Hope this helps!

hello! Super excited to preorder and just wondering if there will be open preorder or limited slots? And if limited slots, what time will preorders open? Thank you so much!
Hello, thank you for your question!
The pre-order period will be open from April 1st, 2024 (opening at 1PM EST) until May 5th, 2024. The sales period will be open pre-order, i.e. there will not be limited slots. Hope this helps!

hello, would it be possible to buy only the pin(s)?
Hello! Thank you for your message.
During the preorder period, items will only be available to order as bundles. However, there is a chance that you might be able to purchase merchandise on its own during the leftover sales period, but this is not a guarantee. Hope this helps!

do you have an estimate on how much the physical zine will be with the NSFW add on?
Hello!
To buy a copy of the physical zine (zine-only + bookmark) with the digital NSFW add-on, the cost (not including shipping costs) would be $30 USD.

Hello. How much will the physical copy of the zine be including international shipping? Do you guys already have an estimate?
Hello hello!
For physical copies of the zine, prices will vary depending on the bundle you choose. The physical copy of the zine (i.e. the zine-only bundle) will be $25 USD, and will also include a bookmark! 🎉
The goal is to provide worldwide shipping; international shipping is currently projected to be $15 USD. However, due to shipping restrictions and sanctions, there are a number of countries that we will not be able to ship to. These countries will be listed on our BigCartel site when preorders open.

hey! is it alright to ask how many apps were received?
Hiya, and thanks for the question! We’d be happy to answer-
Over the course of the open apps period, we received over 130 applications- an incredible response, and one that we couldn’t be any happier about!
On behalf of the Mod Team, we sincerely thank everyone who submitted an application to the zine, as well as to those who have supported the project so far.
As a reminder: application results emails will be sent out on October 5th. Make sure to check your spam inbox if you applied, just in case your results happen to end up there!

Hello idk if it's the right place to ask this, but will contributors be allowed to post their piece (or at least part of it) online after the zine is published/orders are closed?
Hello!
Contributors will be allowed to post their pieces in full after the shipping period for the initial sales phase has concluded- so, during the zine’s leftover sales. Previews of pieces will be shared throughout creation, but we kindly ask that contributors refrain from sharing whole pieces until this time.
Thank you very much!

For the writer's application, do all 3 pieces have to be bsd/skk? I've written multiple angst fics in other fandoms and i was wondering if i could submit those (at least one)
Hello, and thanks for the question!
Not all of your samples have to be BSD/SKK related! We strongly recommend that at least ONE of your samples is BSD or SKK focused so that we can grasp how you handle the characters, but it is not required for all three to be this way.

Hi!! I want to apply as a page artist/merch artist for the zine but im very new to bsd-- just caught up to the manga and anime. I didnt have time to make a full piece of them, i only have sketches and doodles- would that be alright to submit in my application samples? Since skk art is required? Thank you!
Hello, and thank you for your question!
This should be alright! Incomplete works / sketches as your samples are allowed in the application process, so long as at least one piece is complete! This will not impact how your application is assessed!
