Good morning SORGHUM & SPEAR Faithful!
Everything Is Fine
We did indeed get funded yesterday on the SORGHUM & SPEAR Kickstarter!
Thank you everyone for your amazing support on our endeavor! I know it was a lot of extra effort from our fans and friends that made this happen, as the last 48 hours of the campaign told the tale. This is a story you want to see!
And while we unfortunately did not meet our stretch goals of our coloring book or our animated short, we are secure in bring you a great graphic novel and a chance to continue our saga Spring 2018. We will keep our efforts moving forward to get those possibilities realized as soon as we can.
From the GREENE COUNTY CREATIVE team, our mentors and our extended creative family, we all sincerely Thank YOU for your Love + Support of SORGHUM & SPEAR!
The Eternal Realm will return!

Good morning SORGHUM & SPEAR Faithful!
Not Backing Down on our Animation Goal!
We only have 4 hours left on our Kickstarter campaign and we Thank You all for getting us this far.
Can we get to our Animation goal of $20K in time? We are all in with your support of this project!
All the amazing art adds would make increasing to our ASCENDED ART TIER the best Kickstarter update you can ask for!
And remember you will also be able to add to your pledges after fulfillment, so keep an eye out for your favorite items as well!
Don't forget to give one last SHARE on your social channels to get the word out!
One last push until the final drum beat ends, and we are ** this close ** to seeing our work take that big next step. Onward to Victory!

Good morning SORGHUM & SPEAR Faithful!
Happy Thanksgiving to those who are celebrating the day with family and the many blessings in their lives, as the holiday season is now upon us. We all have something to be thankful for, and in our own rituals and ways take a moment to reflect on what is positive in our daily lives.
With that, let me say I am thankful for all of YOU, our family of the ETERNAL REALM! You have my truest gratitude as it honors me to have you a part of this project.
So let me show my appreciation by updating you with some new art prints!
Marlannah Huevember Sketch by Marcus Williams
Our Leading Ladies by Tim Geathers (WIP)
We have two more art prints to add to this endeavor; a second MARCUS WILLIAMS tier sketch this time of Marlannah, and back at it again is the SIMIDAN page artist TIMOTHY GEATHERS with a new art poster of his own in his now classic rendition of our main four characters! Adding this NOW to the art haul so make sure you get a chance to grab yours with your pledge tiers!
We have just over one day left, so please PLEASE share our project and let's get to our first stretch goal, which is our 24-page coloring book at $15,000.
Let me say I am moved by everyone's support of SORGHUM & SPEAR, it is truly an amazing run we've been on the past few days. A lot of coffee, a lot of new art, and a lot of love.
Onward to victory!

Since We Last Spoke 11/19/18 Update #2

Good day SORGHUM & SPEAR Faithful!
A couple of great questions have come up, and I want to clarify as we get ready for our final push to FULLY FUNDED and beyond!
1) We WILL have Add-Ons available for this campaign for Digital Rewards, Specific Art Prints (Jewelry, Signed Merchandise, etc.) and the other pledge goodies available during the fulfillment of our Kickstarter in 2019. Don't have the funds for everything now? Get on board with a pledge and you'll be able to upgrade once we send our BackerKit fulfillment out next year. Save up for some spectacular items and have a stress-free holiday this year! The key is to pledge NOW and be a part of this campaign.
2) The Hardcover Edition of our book WILL INCLUDE the Digital Rewards of the books' PDF and Screen Savers just as the Paperback Edition does. It appears we noted this in our Early Bird Edition, but not the main Kickstarter version. Remember, this is for a BRIAN STELFREEZE cover! I cannot stress how amazing and rare this is going to be!
3) We WILL have an add-on for the original SIMIDAN book and campaign artwork available as well. These prints, however, WILL NOT be included in the ASCENDED ART TIER or any added art collection as add-ons there. There will be a special discounted package to get multiple prints and a collector's packet of the earlier art!
4) Share, Share, SHARE this project with your friends and other equally as cool people! We need a big update to get FUNDED and MOVE FORWARD with our first Stretch Goal at $15,000, which is a 24-page coloring book from SARAH PACETTI of Planet Princess fame! $20,000 is the Animation Goal to begin, and we can STILL do it!
We appreciate the great feedback and support, keep it coming and Thank YOU!
Best,
Dedren Snead

Good morning SORGHUM & SPEAR faithful!
We are closing in on just 72 hours to go in our current Kickstarter campaign to get fully funded and make our way to our stretch goal of an Animated Short! I know it is close, but I have faith that the Eternal Realm will see it realized. If you have enjoyed what you've seen so far with our story, this is a call for you to please rejoin the fight and help us get to 100% funded!
There is a deluge of new art for our fantasy world that I would love to share with our original backer family.
From TOMB RAIDER, LADY CASTLE, NIOBE, and her own series MILLENIA WAR, Ashley's star has risen considerably as a go-to artist extraordinaire in the professional comic world. We are pleased to offer her work as one of our art prints, that will be a featured comic cover in our Graphic Novel's final work and is our 100% Funded Guest Artist reveal!
SHEEBA MAYA is back with SORGHUM & SPEAR!
We welcome back SHEEBA MAYA as an honored guest artist in our series once again! A new short story THE CHILDREN WHO COULD FLY in our upcoming Anthology novel is portrayed masterfully by her incredible talents and will be yet ANOTHER art print available in our campaign.
And we STILL HAVE MORE!
Marlannah's Hand Journal Cover Art by Bicio Fuentes
Our character Marlannah's journey through the Eternal Realm began years before the fateful day atop Mount Juleh. In her travels, she has seen and experienced a lot, and we get a chance to look back at some of her adventures! From the cover of the limited pressing of Marlannah' Hand Journal from this Kickstarter project, we finally have the new cover,.
The ASCENDED ART TIER is looking better and better, is it not?
With so much going on this week, we know we have a large hill to climb. Consider reviewing and updating your pledges to take advantage of this great news! I'm optimistic we will make it, with your LOVE + SUPPORT, all things are still possible.
We need these next two days to FUND AT 100% as the last two days are Thanksgiving and Black Friday. So if you want to see the Eternal Realm shine it's brightest, please help us SHARE this project on your social channels and with those you know would want to support. The last stand is here, and we are ready to claim our victory.
