You can update your pledge by going to the crowdfunding homepage and saving
a pledge with the same email address as you used before.

If you think this was a mistake, please reply to this email and one of us will get back to you.

We realise that some people may want to continue supporting Snipette even if it doesn't make sense for them to go with the original pledge. You are always welcome to subscribe directly at: https://snipettemag.com/subscribe/

Thank you for your support so far, and apologies for the fact that it didn't work out quite as expected this time.

Thanks,
The Snipette Team`
