Hey everyone! This idea has been knocking around my head for a while now, and before I commit any resources too it I thought I'd ask you all about it.
Some more info - the book would be a collection of short stories from all across the world I've been posting about for over a year now, as well as setting up some plot points for an eventual set of novels I want to write.
There would be 27 short stories - one from each of the lands of this world. For people who have read A Map of the Deadlands, think of that as a very little version of what this book will be
between these short stories, we follow the mysterious Curator, a figure cloaked in shadows and gold as he travels the Continent looking for curios to fill his museum with. What's his story? What's with the helmet? All stuff I'm excited to talk about in this book. Here he is.
Some of you might recognise that helmet from this video, and thats no coincidence! This video is a working trailer of sorts for this project, and when its done I'll probably launch the Kickstarter as a whole!
As for the actual Kickstarter, here's some of the nitty gritty.
I would be aiming for around £8,000. It looks like a lot, but its (nearly) one year of my rent. With that paid for, I can focus my all on getting this project finished
Kickstarter rewards? You know it. If you back, I would send you back lots of goodies, from Museum of the Continent merch, pins, prints, and even a character of yours appearing in the book!
Here's some of my work you might have seen that would be making an appearance in the book - from magic to monsters and everything between.
Anyway, sorry for the long post. If anything will come of this it probably wont be for a few months at least, but any support at all is very appreciated! And, again, if this seems like something you would be into please let me know, thank you!

Trans Bruce Wayne? Male to female? Like she loves wearing Martha Wayne's dresses.
Anon you're speaking my language???
Bryce grew up watching her Mama get all dolled up for galas and always connected with that in a way that people say boys shouldn't. Listen Thomas and Martha were definitely the type of parents that didn't care abt gender norms and would let their kid dress however they want. Thomas probably rocked a few dresses in his time.
So Bryce tells them that she feels more like a girl than a boy? They're so accommodating. They get her whatever she needs. The surgery, the drugs, the clothes (but she prefers to wear Martha's too big dresses). Alfred switches from Young Master to Young Madam. It would hit even harder when Thomas and Martha die because those were two of the three people who truly understood her. And now they're gone.
After they die, people feel a bit more comfortable bringing up her 'changes' to her face. Alfred is right by her side but she did have some uncomfortable moments with people. Thomas and Martha definitely protected her from a lot of the media attention and stares.
She still becomes The Bat. I can see her going by Batman to protect her identity even more but also sticking with gender neutral The Bat. People can't tell if The Bat is man or woman which elevates the cryptid vibe she's going for.
The day Martha's dresses fit her perfectly is a bittersweet day. All Bryce has ever wanted is to wear her Mama's dresses properly and now that she can, her Mama isn't there anymore. She sobs into Alfred's arms that day but after that, wears Martha's dresses with pride.
By the time she adopts Dick, she passes so well that he doesn't know she's trans. And it just kind of never comes up? He calls her Mama (which she cries at) or B and that's what all the other kids end up doing. There's some LoA magic/tech involved in Talia giving birth to Damian. He shows up at the manor and upon finding out that Batman is actually a woman, he's impressed.
They find out when the batfam decide to dye their suits for Gotham's Pride Parade and Bryce's suit is the trans flag and her cape is the demiromantic flag. There was a lot of screaming that day.
Jason tries but he just can't fight his Mama, no matter how angry he is at her for not killing the Joker. He spends some time away from the manor but after a lot of talks, screaming, tears and hugs, he comes around. He is also very protective over his Mama, I won't accept otherwise (they all are tbh)
Also let her be tiny?? 5'2, buff Bryce Wayne picking her 6ft+ sons up easily. A tabloid got a picture of Bryce holding Dick up after an attack at the museum by The Riddler. She's in a pretty floral dress, with pink pumps and soot all over her face and her muscled arms covered in blood and scratches. The internet went insane.
Bryce Wayne: *exists*
Gothamites: mommy- sorry mommy- i mean mommy-
Also rip the batkids cause Bryce mothers all their friends too. Shit hits the fan when Jason nearly strangles Garfield cause Bryce gave him a forehead kiss to check if he had a fever.
going off the alley/Gotham fate post from last night: a world where Bruce doesn’t find his Robins but is still Batman, and every single one of his kids is drawn to him even though their lives are complete and relatively safe without him.
Dick has living parents who love him but has always felt like something was missing. He makes eye contact with a man in the crowd at a performance and feels a bizarre, all encompassing urge to go talk to him.
Tim meets Bruce Wayne at a party hosted by his parents and wants to cry when he shakes the man’s hand.
Jason runs into Batman on the street one night getting medicine for his mom from the pharmacy and briefly considers following the man home.
Maybe Bruce knows their original fates, maybe he doesn’t. Maybe he believes they’re better off without him. Better off without Batman. But he doesn’t realize that the second their lives intersect again (they were always meant to) his children could never look away from him again into blissful ignorance.
