Can't afford "fancy" magic schools? Born to non-magical parents? You're welcome at Whimberly's College for the Magical Arts!
Hey, Quick update: I've been busy packaging up your games and sending them out this week, so keep an eye on your mailboxes! The final batch will be in the mail no later than Monday. :) Huzzah!
Here are a few pictures:
Hey! First, I got a proof copy today. So cool! I'll be making edits and working with the printer, etc. over the coming weeks. It's looking good!

If you're into coloring, check out my new Kickstarter! It's a build-and-color-your-own fantasy building...book! It's called the book of building:
It's awesome, and I'm going to be involving backers in the creative process, so I hope to see you there!
Hello!
Exspelled is off to the printers, and I'll be excitedly holding my breath until the proof copy comes. :D Hooray!
As planned, I'm holding off on launching the adventure-story-game-thing that I'm working on for our final stretch goal until everyone's gotten ExSpelled and had a chance to play it. The game follows up right after the events of ExSpelled, and that's all I will tell you. :)
Some backers are missing their Cloud Dungeon Print-and-play – if this is you, send me a message and I'll get it sorted out.
I'll be launching a little Kickstarter next week for a coloring book, with build-your-own fantasy building book: The Book of Building. If you like coloring and cut-and-paste, keep an eye out for that!
Thanks again for backing ExSpelled, and being generally awesome!
Peace-
Andrew
Just a quick note – the PnP has been updated, and you can download it now!

I'll be sending the files to the printers soon! Hooray!
So, I wanted to move up the ship date of the book (because you're awesome, and I wanted to surprise you!) but I'm going to return the ship date to the original plan – late June. You've got a little more time to fill out that survey! I apologize about the impulsive plans.
It's been a lot of fun drawing all the little details in this cross-section of the school. Here's a smaller copy of the image, but if you want to see the full-size version with all the little details, click through the link below.

There are three houses (and one non-house) at Whimberly C, and a test that you can take that will place you in a house.
Of course, W.C. doesn't have a fully-funded design department, so they delegated the design of the crests to the houses themselves. The results are...mixed. Here are the crests, in the official colors, with a description of each house!
Are you extra-specially courageous? Does it take courage just to BE you? Does it take courage to not understand the world, or why you get such terrible grades? You might fit into Slogwit! COURAGE!
Your mind works differently and you know it. You know that you're just a creative, artistic type. You don't have to listen to those jerks at school. Or your parents. Or your friends. Or your teachers, doctors, therapists, psychologists, parole officers, hypnotists, or exorcists.
You're a free spirit. Procrastination and boredom are sacred rights. You don't let nobody tell you to do nothing. And that's mostly what you do. Nothing.
