Not too shabby, eh? Especially considering we don’t apply for awards or contests (though if you want to send our name in for some we won’t mind) and we rarely advertise (something we plan on changing in the near future). And… it’s all thanks to you guys! Thank you for your support over the years and for letting me take the chance at doing this full time!

Over this next year we’re hoping to grow, but marketing is not really our strong point. If you know of ways we can reach out – or you’d like to help us do so – please let us know. The more ‘Hunter’ grows, the more we’ll be able to do. I’d love to try hosting a ‘Hunter’ Meet ‘n’ Greet at a few cons. Unfortunately, finances are not ready for that yet.

Thanks again for sticking with us and giving us your support! We couldn’t have done it without you!
