Hi all, This is Georgia, one half of the Holmwood Foundation writing team, just posting a quick update regarding the Holmwood Foundation. As you may or may not have heard, our Kickstarter for season one ended last week, after successfully reaching our funding goal of 23 thousand pounds, which means we are now full steam ahead on production! We just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who has supported us up to this point, whether monetarily, by listening and sharing our pilot, enthusing about us on social media, or giving us your time and experience to help make this show possible, we have been blown away by the support. We wouldn’t be here without your help, and we are so so grateful. So, what comes next?Right now we are hard at work editing and locking off our season one scripts, wrangling our actors and finalising our recording schedule. We hope to release the rest of season one in Spring or early summer 2025, but we will keep you updated as we go, via our socials and this feed.In the meantime, we are also working hard to begin fulfilling the tier rewards for our Kickstarter backers! Please remember; if you don’t fill out your backer survey, we will not be able to get your rewards to you, so please take a moment to do that now, if you haven’t already!If you missed the Kickstarter window, we do have late pledges open for a short time, in case you would like access to our private Discord server, access to episodes a day early when they drop, or a shout out on our website. If that interests you, do check out our Kickstarter link in the show notes!We will continue to release art, character extracts, script snippets and other goodies over on our socials, as we gear up for the rest of season one, so please do follow us if that interests you! We regularly answer questions and interact with our followers. Links also in the show notes. That’s all from me for now! Please do reach out to us if you have any questions, comments or concerns. A huge thank you again. We can’t wait to show you the horrors we have in store!OFFICIAL WEBSITE: https://www.theholmwoodfoundation.com/KICKSTARTER LINK: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/georgiacook/the-holmwood-foundationYou can find us as @theholmwoodfoundation on all socials except twitter and bluesky, where we are theholmwoodfnd.
