Hello Dreamlanders
26 days to go and we've hit 65% thanks to your kind contributions! Keep them coming. Here's what's what on the Dreamlands front:
1) Work continues apace on sketches for the cover. Once the Kickstarter closes, those in on the special updates will receive some insights into the art, writing and design of the book on a weekly basis.
2) We're looking into print options with several publishing and fulfillment houses (including DriveThruRPG and others). IF this happens, it is likely we'll add in a new backer reward (one for U.S. and one for overseas) that will include a hardcover dead tree edition, in addition to the PDF and other special options. We'll send an update when we know more and people who want in who have already dropped some change can up their contribution.
So, long story short, we heard you, and we want it to happen (the dead tree edition, that is). We'll see what we can do.
As for now, keep spreading the word via Twitter, web badge, email, list posting and more. Tell your friends. So far, it's off to a great start. Let's hit 100% by this weekend!
Cheers,
-Dennis

Unlikely James. For one, I'm not certain how my Dreamlands will fit in with theirs (I'm sure their stuff is awesome, but mine is surprisingly dark), secondarily, it would just put a whole other level of work on the project that would require outside effort, input and vetting. I'd rather reduce the blockers down to one; that is, me.
Creator James Haughton on April 3, 2012
Given that Pelgrane Press is going to put out a major Dreamlands supplement sometime in the next year or so ("Dreamhounds of Paris") - any chance of doing a cross-promo deal with them and putting in Trail of Cthulhu stats?

Hey Jim,
We're talking with DriveThruRPG now about this possibility.
Creator Jim Kitchen on April 3, 2012
Dennis, I'm always one for a hard/softcover copy of the products. Is there a way to use POD to reduce the overall burden for you guys as a publisher?
Creator Arc Dream Publishing on April 3, 2012
Thanks Jon, and just a note everyone — we of course need to cross that $5,500 threshold before the dead tree edition can be considered!

Awesome, awesome news Dennis! Thanks for the update, and best wishes for the remaining, oh, 26 days!! :)
