Hello! My name is Jack Guffey and I'm proud to introduce to you Sacred Soul! I'm raising a relatively small amount of money to get the production of this graphic novel I created up and running. The story has already been started, I just need the funds to get it produced (see the other pages for story and character information!). My process is simple:
1. Raise money to get the story drawn by an external-source artist (I can't draw as well as this series deserves).
2. Use funds to get the volumes physically produced.
3. Pay for the shipping of the volumes. (International backers, please provide an additional $10 for shipped rewards. Shipping will be free for backers in the United States!)
And that's it! Simple, right? The video at this link (http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/852158581/sacred-soul-volume-one-death) shows the details of the story and my plans!
2. Use funds to get the volumes physically produced.
3. Pay for the shipping of the volumes. (International backers, please provide an additional $10 for shipped rewards. Shipping will be free for backers in the United States!)
And look at these awesome pledge rewards!
$1 or more = a general mention in the "Thanks To" section of each volume!
$5 or more = your full name in the "Thanks To" section of each volume!
$10 or more = a wall poster of the cover of the first volume! (plus each lower-pledge reward)
$25 or more = a copy of the first volume, signed by the creator! (plus each lower-pledge reward)
$50 or more = your name (or company name) listed in the "Sponsor" section of each volume! (plus each lower-pledge reward)
$75 or more = access to a private chat area where you can discuss your ideas with me throughout the production of the series! (plus each lower-pledge reward)
$100 or more (three backers only!) = your personal review on the back cover of each copy of the first volume! (plus each lower-pledge reward)
$150 or more (one backer only!) = one of the first five printed copies of the first volume, signed by the artist and me! (plus each lower-pledge reward)
$500 or more (one backer only!) = your own original series character based on your description (protagonist or antagonist!), set to appear in the story somewhere in the first three volumes AT LEAST once! (plus each lower-pledge reward)
$1,000 or more (one backer only!) = your own original character based on your description (protagonist or antagonist!) appearing AS A MAIN CHARACTER in the story (subject to discussion)! (plus each lower-pledge reward below $500)
Continued support even after my goal is reached would be greatly appreciated of course, and any profits from the first volume can be used to fuel the project and advance the production and distribution of the full series!
