This month Anna Prashkovich and I have a live Kickstarter campaign to produce both Starblood and Psychonaut graphic novels in paperback format. 15 backers have already pledged almost £500 between them. Your support is crucial to the success and even if you cannot afford to help financially (there are amazing rewards if you do) then maybe you could share the drive on your favourite social media.
The Starblood Graphic Novels 1 & 2 follows a group of LGBT Goth characters, one of whom brings Lilith (mother of demons) to Earth. It’s a story about love and sexual obsession and is for adults with some nudity and plenty of violence.
Rewards are available for anyone pledging £1 or more. These include: -
Digital Demon II available if you pledge £9 or more - PDF copy of Starblood the graphic novel, PLUS Earlybird PDF copy of Psychonaut the graphic novel, PLUS exclusive downloadable wallpaper painted by Anna Prashkovich, AND access to exclusive community page. (4 backers so far.)
