My name is Cory Holman, I am a Christian, a father, a husband, and a lover of cartoons & comics. Ever since a young age I have wanted to draw & write. Back in 2020 I was afforded the opportunity to write a new TTRPG system called Realms of Elghrune which had a successful kickstarter & my creative career has taken off from there.  I have written 10 projects for Realms of Elghrune & 3 successful Kickstarters, 3 projects for Extinction (a zombie slaying ttrpg), as well as did some guest writing for several other projects including Ragnaborg, Shadowdark, Raptor Ruckus, and Pirate Borg, all of which have had great crowdfunding campaigns. I stream on Twitch doing art & project layout if you want to swing by and hang out. You can find me at Gridlock064, I stream most Tuesdays & some Thursdays. Can’t wait to see you there as well!

From teaching child monks English in Thailand and guiding white water rafting in Swaziland, to renovating a vintage campervan and building a deck from a back of napkin drawing, I've spent a lot of time saying YES to otherwise crazy ideas. And then working to figure out how to make them happen. As a Make Shit Happen coach, I've also been helping others turn bucket list ideas/ dreams/ passion projects/ side businesses into reality since 2017. I believe: Making Shit Happen is less hustle / grind, and more bold + tenacious. Your audacious goals are figureoutable, attainable, and you deserve to go for it. Black Lives Matter. Trans Rights are Human Rights. No Human is Illegal. Love is Love. Allyship is earned. You can learn more about me here: https://courtneyloechl.com/ Current Project: Motivation with Animals Enamel Pins as part of Pintopia 2024! This is my first BackerKit crowdfunding project and I'm excited to dive in on the creator side for a fun change. I joined BackerKit in 2023 as a member of the Success team.
