And now we get to revisit the art from Issue 2! We're back in Theodore Wharton's office, as he discusses a new lucrative business venture with the bootlegger, Hugo!
So this week's drop in steem prices has been quite painful, and I'm kinda wondering if I should sell what we've raised now, or hold out for a return to at least 1.00? If I sold today we'd be a little under 75% of our fundraising goal, but a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush and all that. Should I have been selling as it came in, all along?
I'm continuing my power down, and I'm willing to take it all the way to 0 if it means funding this comic, but in the meantime I could use some advice on what to do with the steem we've already raised.
Additionally I have posted the results in our Ithaqa Steemit RPG comments section, so you can read what happened here:

Theresa and Bryan won, and I'll be sending them steem, stay tuned for the next round! Life is slowing down slightly, and I have managed to get some writing in. Most importantly I got the green light from my editor on some very important changes, so I am about to tackle what I hope will be the final version of Issue 4...

Thank you to @nateaguila for backing us at 6.5 steem! That's a big help, will net you some great rewards, and puts you within striking distance of entering The Council of Five!
Steemers who hold a position on the council will get to confer with Theresa and I on what the other bonus gifts to the steem community will be. If we decide to do bonus art, the council of 5 will get to have a say in what is depicted! When you back reward tiers in the campaign, that is added to your SBD ranking, so if you would like to be a part of the council of 5 putting 3-5 SBD in wouldcould get you a spot, while also netting you some exclusive rewards.

In order to more accurately reflect how close we are to funding this issue, I'm going to start listing what the current value of my liquid steem wallet is. Just putting this here for full transparency.
We have raised 744 USD worth of steem, which means we are 74.4 +% of the way to our goal! Once we hit 1000 USD, it will guarantee that we release all of issue 1, for free to steemit! At 1,200 USD, I will be able pay my letterist Lucas as well. That price drop in steem was really painful...
