That’s right, we’ll be crowdfunding our first set of merchandise! Find out more about what, how and why below!

Or just click this link to go straight to the kickstarter campaign.

Starting out on a personal note: These past months have been tough for me. Lots of unexpected circumstances made it difficult to plan for the future of Pixelite Novels among other things. One of my goals for 2025 was to produce some merchandise for our series to be sold at Manga-Comic-Con in Leipzig end of March. This would have been a shot in the dark, because I have never tried producing or selling merchandise for our books, save for a handful of booklets, postcards and bookmarks to give away for free. With my financial situation suddenly changing, it became even harder to commit to any expense that isn’t directly tied to releasing new books for you.

That’s why I need your help!

I want to produce three acrylic standees feat. Silva, Kuro and Elsa from Brandon Varnell’s Catgirl Doctor, which we have been releasing in German since 2023. The goal is to produce 33 of each standee, and depending on if we hit our stretch goals, I’m hoping to produce even more goodies, such as art cards, a poster and stickers.

I would appreciate your support in this. The kickstarter campaign is due to launch by the end of the week, so if you could click this link and follow the campaign to be notified when it launches would be amazing!

Should we succeed the merch will be sold at MCC and of course also become available through or store, so don’t worry, if you can’t decide yet.

That’s it from me for now. Let’s make this happen!

I already talked about what our next steps might be in case the campaign fails, but now I’ve made more concrete plans regarding that. I’ve already made my intent to publish these books more than clear, but since I’m missing some funds, I’ll have to prioritize production in some places.

For now, I’ll be focusing on getting both the English and the German regular editions published.

Almost everything is set for the English release, except conversion into ePub format, which is barely a day’s work. The English regular edition will be widely made available through IngramSpark in paperback format as planned. We are hoping to have this version published by the end of July.

The German edition has finally entered its final edits, which we are expecting to be finished early to mid-July, so it should also be available by the end of July.

Both regular editions are available for pre-order through our shop. Every pre-order gets their copy signed if they wish so. The regular editions will definitely be released as planned.

As for both Collector’s Editions: Preorders in the shop are also open until July 16^th! We will only print as many copies as funding through preorders will allow us to do. The Collector’s editions will be limited as planned and remaining copies will be sold exclusively through our shop thereafter.

So, for those of you who backed our campaign and still want to get their hands on a book: For now, our shop is the best way to go!

Thank you for your support.
