Leaps and bounds, people. Leaps and bounds.

Well, this is exciting. My Patreon in support of the Crater School project - the Chalet School on Mars, if you haven't been paying attention: English girls' boarding-school stories, on that old Mars that English schoolgirls of the time dreamed about, with canals and atmosphere and Martians and everything - has pinged through two door prizes in the last twenty-four hours, and we're already halfway to the first stretch goal.

Inducements are fun. So here's another: somewhere between where we stand now (at $100 a month) and that stretch goal of $200, one new patron will earn a door prize. Can't say which; it might be any of you. Selection will happen entirely at random, at an indeterminate time in this unpredictable process. It may have something to do with cats, and boxes. I may hold auditions for the role of Schrodinger's Sandcat. (Did I mention sandcats? Mars has sandcats, that's established. You can be tolerably certain of a sandkitten showing up at the Crater School, in the not too distant future.)

Door prizes so far have been the right to name a teacher at the school, and her subject. Since you ask. The next prize might be entirely otherwise. Who can say? Only those who play...
