Hi Everyone,

As of this moment, all of the remaining ATALANTA books have been shipped out. This project is considered completed with a 100% fulfillment (no stragglers?? you folks are on TOP of it all!  Amazing!)


Folks may have already gotten their books (some) others should give it until the end of March/beginning of April for your books to arrive. If they don't by then drop us a line and we'll see what we can do for you <3

If you gave us the wrong address/haven't updated your address before we shipped out we will not be offering replacements as you were given plenty of time & warnings to adjust. HOWEVER most postal services have a mail-forwarding option that would be worth looking into if you happen to be in this predicament!


I just want to take this moment to thank you ALL so much for supporting this passion project, your feedback and kind words have been invaluable during one of the hardest years of artistic production we've had in a long time. I want to personally thank you all for believing in me and this project and for giving it a chance (and me a chance) to bring you some of the best books I've created to date <3


Big question I'm sure at least a few of you may have (especially after reading ATALANTA):


Is this the end of Myth Retold?

Short answer, absolutely Not.

Long answer, I'm already working on the sequels to ATALANTA which will shift to Meleager's POV in the second & finally to Diktynna in the final instalment of that story. The myth of Atalanta takes on many pieces and parts that just didn't all fit into one book and thought could fit much smarter into a few.

I am also plotting out a few more one-shots to fit into Myth Retold and am likely considering another Kickstarter for (potentially) later this year.  This time with several of the stories written out and with a much more structured timeline than this current kickstarter (and hopefully no negatively world-altering events, yeesh)!

If any of this interests you at all you can follow my partner and I and the work that we do through these means:

website & mailing list: windywallflower.com

Etsy // Twitter // Instagram // Tiktok 

(And if you're feeling exceptionally generous we also have these books on goodreads currently if you want to drop a little review/rating we're always super honoured!! Likewise if you want to share your rewards on social feel free to @windywallflower !  We love to see that our stuff made it to you all safe and sound)!

Thank you ALL, stay safe out there <3
