We reached the first stretch goal! So I'll announce the next one. I was going to do that yesterday, but for some reason, my technology refused to communicate with each other and I couldn't get the photos to synch to my computer.

So here they are:

Stretch goal $3000

Colouring pages!

While on the subject of soup, this is the soup season in Australia. Let me share a pretty good recipe for pumpkin soup (I understand some parts of the world will have to deal with an excess in pumpkins next month):

Great Pumpkin Soup

1 butternut pumpkin or similar

1 onion

4-5 celery sticks (you can also use the leaves)

3-4 cloves of garlic

3 stock cubes (to taste)

a pinch of pepper

Cut vegetables in chunks, cover with water in a large pan and cook until soft. Add stock cubes and pepper. Put through a blender. Done!

This is really nice with a dollop of sour cream or yoghurt and served with garlic bread.

Aaaand! We're off!

The target has been reached, so this project is actually happening.

The stretch goal of $1500 unlocks some pretty cool stuff. I've just put a dragon picture on my phone:

Some people may get a kick out of seeing a future date on the screen.

You can see a video of artwork for the book here:

Yes, as you can tell, I'm really enjoying the multimedia stuff. In future stretch goals (which ALL backers will get), I have colouring pages, more dragon images and I might even record myself playing a medieval dance tune.
