- If the Greenland Tariffs go ahead, I will stop shipping items from my shop to the US from 1 Feb. It's hard enough keeping up with Royal Mail's own changes; the tariff and handling surcharges for US-bound mail are too much. ko-fi.com/tealin/shop if you want to scoop something before then.
- Just found a forgotten pack of Best Journey minicomics, so they're in the store now – ko-fi.com/s/00f9f13d42 £5 for a hard copy of the PDF you can download free at gum.co/bestjourney

- Do you work in Affinity Publisher? Would you like some freelance work, or to screen share with me and show me how to fix things? I've got a bunch of notes from the printer that are above my pay grade (£0) and am open to throwing a little money at the problem to make it go away.
- Do you have a tricky conservative on your Xmas list? Why not get them a nice safe book about dead white men being brave, which underlines the value of cooperation and science (and fact checking), while supporting a genuinely progressive small independent press? store.ironcircus.com/products/the...

- Late to the party because I've been at a different party but HEY! North Americans! Want a super beautiful hardcover comic about the jolly start to a doomed expedition? For only TEN MEASLY DOLLARS? How about an e-book for 5? At that price, you can donate a copy to your local library, too!

- Arrived in Oslo, which is not enemy territory* because we're all friends at the Roald Amundsen Memorial Lectures. Tomorrow, giving the Fram Museum a whole day, as there is barely any time during the lectures and it is full of great stuff. Then Nasjonalmuseet for 19thC landscapes. Then NERD PARTY!!!

- I worked with Joe Gilland on Silverwing, my first real job in animation. He was one of the most authentic people I'd ever met. I've always been crap at FX so all the splashes and smoke in my book are 100% credit to Elemental Magic II. Thanks, Joe. www.cartoonbrew.com/rip/joseph-g...
- We can buy comics instead.

- Today I discovered just how much more work I have to do on the writing side, but at the same time, I am really excited to do this work and it will make the mediocre stuff much better. This is progress.
- Props to John Powell and Harry Gregson-Williams for writing the perfect soundtrack to Landing At Cape Evans. Odd choice to put plasticine chickens on the cover art, though.

- Just pressed 'print' on 700 cards! 0_0 Thank you everyone for your enthusiasm! They should arrive by Saturday and I will start packing individual orders. As the printers work in increments of 100, there'll be extras, so I'm keeping the shop open for now, but will close it as stocks dwindle.
- Also, head on over to MY shop at ko-fi.com/tealin/shop to pre-order some polar-themed midwinter cards so I know how many to get printed!
- I'm ordering cards tomorrow morning, so this is your last day to get orders in if you want a guaranteed number of them, in time for you to send out in December!

- I've been interviewed by Swoop Antarctica about my journey to Worst Journey and how I'm approaching the material! www.swoop-antarctica.com/blog/worst-j... I'd like to think Antarctic travel folks will Get It, but hopefully other folks will, too.
- In which midwinter cards and Centenary merch are presented for sale and pre-sale, to meet your gift-giving and seasonal salutation needs.
- It's some sort of Bookshop Day today! Did you know you can get my book in shops? It's true! Even if the shop doesn't have it today, you can ask politely and they can order it in JUST FOR YOU! worstjourney.com/2022/12/17/t...

- I'm pressing the 'print' button on the cards next Wednesday! Please let me know before then how many you would like, so that you're sure to get them. I'll be shipping them early November, to reach you in time to mail them out before Xmas. Mugs and pins might get shipped before then.
