We FUNDED!!!! Stretch Goals Inside! <3

Thank you all so much! It was exciting to watch as we funded and then blew past the goals so fast I had to set NEW GOALS! I have a bunch of push and stretch goals planned from now until October 30th (campaign ends at 6:30am on October 31st) but the first stretch goal is super close!
I've been doing a bunch of Midjourney art for my creative spirit, mostly focused on my books. You can see some of them on my Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/melleamade/
So for my FIRST STRETCH GOAL at $1,500 I am offering20 Cougar Creek related Midjourney art pieces in a PDF booklet to EVERYONE who has backed. Some of them will be from my IG page but I will be creating more than half of them brand new for this stretch goal. This goal should be easy to achieve as we're only a few hundred dollars off!
The SECOND STRETCH GOAL comes in at $2,000 and this will be The Magical Key to Midlife story about a Cougar Creek character (for those who have read the books, this is Katrina, the mother of Anita and Drake) who hasn't had a story yet. I know this is a big stretch goal but I think we can make it!
Once again thank you so much, I'm super happy to be sharing these special books with you and the brand new Midlife Dragon Unexpected!
Onward!
