Time extension
Dear ANY% backer,
Thank you for supporting our crowdfunding campaign to create a unique history of the vibrant speedrunning scene. We'd been working throughout the summer to develop the book with author Kat Brewster and designer/illustrator Mytil Ducomet (l'Atelier Muesli), and were hugely excited to reveal our project to the world.
Over the past month, we've received over 200 pledges for the book and many glowing comments on the design and scope of the publication. Although we are just under a third funded so far, after some deliberation, we've decided to extend our funding campaign until 29 October to see if we can build enough support to make this happen. We truly believe in the project and are eager to see this color-soaked ode to speedrunning become a bona fide, real-life book.
We hope this comes as good news, as hope is not lost! If you have any suggestions for spreading the word or reaching speedrunning fans via social media, forums, or even (yes!) IRL, I'd love to hear them in the comments below or in my inbox at darren@readonlymemory.vg.
We'll check back in after a few weeks—hopefully with happy news—and in the meantime we'll be doing all we can to reach every potential reader of this lovingly-made celebration of playing videogames as fast as humanly possible.

Perhaps see if you can get any Twitch speedrunners excited about the project? This is how I found the community in the first place. Via Dist2
