Hey everyone,
So what was thought to have been ahead of schedule became delayed. Why? Well, a combo of shipping mishaps and confusion is to blame. However, it has been resolved, and Laurie should be sending out packages to you all by next week, hopefully!
I apologize for the delay.
In other news, I will be at Baltimore Comic Con, tables F8-F9, this October 22nd-24th, alongside Kat Calamia, Phil Falco, Michael Watson, and Charlie McElvy! If you are around, come say hi!
Hopefully I or Laurie will have updates for you soon!

Shipping Updates

Hey everyone!
So books are being sent from the printer to the amazing Laurie Foster, who will then send the books out to you along with all your other rewards. So you should be getting your physical rewards, ahead of schedule (if you filled out your surveys).
NOW, an important digital rewards update.
We had a little hiccup with the digital rewards on this end and accidentally distributed a bunch of REDUNDANT digital copies of American Dreams #1-#5. This error has been reversed and you should have ONLY the original downloads in your folder on Backerkit. We apologize if you received multiple emails about downloads in the process!!
Packages should be mailed out next week, so keep your eyes peeled!

Hey everyone!
The BackerKit smoke test was a success so now all the surveys have been sent out!
Check your email for the link to BackerKit to fill out your info, add add-ons, etc. Let me know if there are any issues.
You have thirteen (13) days to fill out the survey before we lock things down for production, so fill it out ASAP.
Thanks!

Hey all,
Everything is all set with BackerKit, so the smoke test has been launched!
Now, let me remind you what that means. Backerkit is now sending out surveys to about 5% of you (so check your junk mail in case it didn't pop into your inboxes). If everything is in good working order, I'll send out the surveys to the rest of you this weekend!
Digital rewards should be IMMEDIATELY given. I'll still need to order the physical rewards once we get the final counts of items, so that will take a while longer.
Plus you will have the opportunity to choose add ons.
Anyways, that's all from me for now. If you get your digital rewards today, let me know what you think!

On Our Way

Hey everyone!
Been busy behind the scenes here at American Dreams HQ. I've been setting up (with a lot of help) the BackerKit surveys and everything so that can be ready to go next week. Laurie Foster from Unlikely Hero Studios have been really helping me out with this, so I want to give her a big shout out!
Okay, so here's where everything stands.
By next Friday, I hope to launch the BackerKit "smoke test" to get surveys underway. The "smoke test" is basically BackerKit sending out about 5% of the surveys to see if everything is working. The rest of the surveys should follow quickly.
Once you receive them, you can fill out your address info, as well as answer a few questions depending on your pledge level. You will also be given the opportunity to purchase add-ons you may have missed given your chosen reward level at the time.
Digital rewards should be released to you, upon completion of the survey, ASAP. Physical rewards will take longer (since they need to be printed and manufactured), but we will get them to you as fast as we can. Laurie and UHS will also be helping with shipping, so your rewards are in safe hands.
Now, surveys will be open for a couple of weeks, so fill them out ASAP, Once that's done, we will move into physical production and have everything sent out.
Also, I will be at Baltimore Comic Con (if it still happens) in October. If you want to pick up your rewards there, please let me know and I'll try to arrange pick up for you there.
Well, that's all from me for now. I'll keep you all in the loop as things keep moving.
DK
