hey family, thanks so much for joining our mission! We have done phenomenal in the campaign. I have been on vacation the past week, so we have been moving gradually, but not super fast because I been away.

I am now back in the drivers wheel and its time to kick some butt.

I have an important update for you all.

On May 2nd, we will begin locking down the early investors. All investors whose money has cleared will get a chance to permanently lock in and get their stock issued. Once that happens, you will be sent an email to claim your verified investor card.

The bronze, silver, and gold card will be available mid May. Congratulations!

If you have friends who haven't invested, or plan to later, let them know that after April 25th, the likelihood they will get the cards before August will be VERY LOW.

After the lock in, we will have a large sum of funds sent to us early, which allows us to move forward with certain projects.

We will immediately do the following:

Invest 12k into each of the following comic series. Mask of the Orisha, Madagascar, Lion's Game, Monarchs, Granada's Shadow, and Muntu Warriors.
Invest 30k into the novel division, supporting the recent winners in our patreon competition.
Invest 50k into the youtube series of Black Sands, starting the voice acting competition.
Securing a few sales reps for school distribution.
Investing 100k into video game demo development.

This is an exciting time to be a member of the Black Sands Family. Don't keep it a secret. Tell everyone you know.
