Hey guys, 

Hope you're all having a lovely week. We are just 5 days away from the campaign ending! Whatever happens I'll ensure that you'll get The Death Isles map with the book. Likely I'll add it to the pages. 

Here is where we are at so far with the book cover. Tell us in the comments what you think. If we need to make changes I'll do that in the next couple of days, as I'll be testing the print of the books. Also fits the alternative cover perfectly!

I've been working on Grimfel the game and in my spare time doing the finalised art for Grimfel Origins. My editor is also in finalising mode and we will be ready for the 19th Feb. But during the end of the campaign I'll be sharing with you how it looks printed. Because I have to make sure I get the print right. Our early test versions have been good but I'm going to be testing it in its entirety so will need to see how everything looks :)

Really cannot wait to show you. I will also be giving backers the option to have a SFW version. This just removes the nudity/sex scene illustrations. For example: 

Instead of the original comic strip, the SFW has a description of the scene in novel verse text. Of course the NSFW is the default option. But you'll have choice if you prefer to not have those scenes included. 

Once the campaign ends, I'll also show the extras which some of you will get with your pledge such as the TTRPG booklet. I'm really happy with the progress so far and can't wait to get it to you!

Have an amazing weekend,

Hey guys, hope you are having an amazing weekend. 

Just to let you know that I have uploaded a new preview for Grimfel Origins. This is because the original sample I shared was the draft and now the editing has been completed. So I have updated the preview to reflect that. You can find it here. 

Included is new comic strips and half of chapter 3. 

I have also included new add on/perks such as the ability to name a character. This will only be available till the 25th of Jan due to Grimfel Origins going to the formatting/finalising stage. 

Discord is also available for backers which can be found here.  Though bear in mind that it is silent has it is currently a small server. It is also where I share most of the updates on the upcoming game (Apr 5th). So should pick up pace around that date. It is also the place where you can message me if you have any questions.  

All the best,

Adam Frank Sparkes (Sparrowhawk)

Hey guys, hope you are all well. 

We've hit 200% of the funding! Incredible! As a thank you, I have updated the preview to include the full first and second chapter, you can read it here 

I have also updated the add-ons and perks with your requests. One of the main being to include your name in the special thanks section. I've included that to add-ons also.  Another Limited edition pledge with the ability to name a character in the book, though this is limited to two only and ends on 25th Jan as that's when Grimfel Origins will go to final print.  

All the best,
