Have you heard? We are celebrating our 10th Birthday in style - with a gala in Berkeley, California! But this isn’t the only way we’re celebrating. We are also creating a long-asked for anthology, in which our community members' creativity takes center stage.

Want your very own copy of your anthology? You can pre-order the book today! To reserve your copy of our special limited-run anthology, purchase it right here for $30.

To get your copy of the anthology AND get to personalize a message to be printed in the book, you can purchase that here and share the message with us for $45! Here’s how it works:

You choose to share a message in memory of, in honor of, or wishing us a happy birthday. See below for some examples! Please check your spelling and keep it to 140 characters or fewer.
1. In loving memory of Dame Maggie Smith, who as a fellow prickly and hilarious woman, would have loved this book.
2. In honor of Prickly Perrie, who taught us that you don’t have to be a 3D cactus to make an impact - you are enough, just as you are.
3. Happy birthday Cactus Cancer Society! Because of you, I have run out of space in my craft closet! I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Copies of the 10th Anniversary Anthology will cost $40 after our special pre-order run -- please order yours by February 1, 2025 to receive a discount and/or leave a note in honor, memory or celebration. We can't wait to celebrate this milestone for our community!
