Today is the last day to join Intro to SEVENPENCE!

This Kickstarter makes possible the release of a vibrant, electro-pop single and a set of poetry, both of which will be available to all who have pledged to this campaign BEFORE the launch of the next Kickstarter, Hexa - which begins in January and will offer TWO songs and original poetry for only a $10 set goal!

Your support means the world to me. I am especially grateful to those who have reached out to wish me well, pr who have shared, commented, and liked my posts. A little bit of time and care goes a long way! I look forward to see how we can continue to connect moving forward. 🪽

A little goes a very long way. Independent artist, Kevin Valentine, offers an original song, a set of poetry - all for ONLY ONE DOLLAR.

64 hours to go on this Kickstarter! With i7P, I am sharing an original song with an relaxed electro-pop feel called "aFlame" and a vibrantly serene set of original poetry called "- to touch the sky -"

When I wrote this song, I was imagining what would happen if I died and what kind of words I would want to say to those I loved as consolation for their loss.

I know perhaps that this is a fairly dark thought to be having, but at this time in my life I was contemplating my purpose in life and sometimes that forces you to grapple with your own mortality. f

I ind this song to be extremely uplifting for me to play and sing AND remains a powerful reminder to be grateful for all of the people in my life who I care about so deeply.

If you are seeing this, it is likely that you are on the list.

Have you had a chance to watch my newest video about Intro to ‘SEVENPENCE’. I talk a little bit about where we are in the campaign process and what this whole thing is about. looking forward to more to come!

Check out the i7P Kickstarter page to see how you can participate in what is only the start of a year long journey through SEVEN crowdfunding campaigns and a heck of a lot of music, poetry graphic design and more!

Here is the site:

We have a little over two weeks left on Intro to ‘SEVENPENCE’. We are fully funded so let’s see how far we can push this thing. Aim for the moon!

i7P is a crowdfunding campaign hosted on the platform called Kickstarter and it is designed around two offerings: an original song and a set of poetry. ALL pledge tiers will receive these things in the form of a digital download. Check out the page below if you are curious about the process.

Kickstarter is amazing because there are A LOT of independent artist, designers, inventors, and entrepreneurs who use this platform to fund their projects. It’s a great way to discover new things and to give to something you find to be inspiring or cool.

This Kickstarter is a part of a series of crowdfunding campaigns called SEVENPENCE, which will play out over the course of this next year.

This series starts off small with only a one dollar set campaign goal, which we have already met!

Because of Kickstarter’s all or nothing policy, this means that the offerings mentioned above WILL be made and shared with all who have pledged to this campaign.

We shall see about the next one, called ‘hexa’ which has a $10 dollar ask.

Two weeks into SEVENPENCE! And we are sitting tight at 15,500% funded. I’ve started to turn my attention less toward promoting this campaign and more on writing and producing the material I’ve promised to give those who pledge to this campaign.

I’ve landed on a song that I’ve never released before - so I’ve got to sit with it to see what new elements I can add and to make sure it sounds nice.

It’s been refreshing to write poetry, it’s always a peaceful experience and I can ONLY get into it if I’m feeling relaxed and open to a more gentle creative exploration.

has been such fun, because I’ve been able to challenge myself to actually post regularly (something I’ve been notoriously bad at with regard to promoting my creative work). This process has also been wonderful because having only a one dollar ask for an all or nothing campaign is actually a pretty low key thing, so there’s not that much pressure on my shoulders to do everything perfectly. You’ve got to start small and grow from there! A little goes a long way.

Maybe you’ve been seeing things about this Kickstarter and have wanted to participate in some way. No worries if you haven’t yet, we all are busy and it’s easy to keep scrolling even after you’ve seen something your interested in. Now is the time to check out what I’m doing with this seven-part series.

Take your time to build something that will last.

SEVENPENCE - which begins with i7P - has been in the works for over two years! And it will take about a year to move through all seven of these 30-day campaigns.

Over this time, I am hope to really dive into my creative process - the intention here is to make something that speaks, vibrantly.

If you haven’t had the chance, check out the main page for i7P on Kickstarter! We’ve already reached our campaign goal, which means that I will be publishing an original song and a set of poetry no matter what.

Those who have pledge to this campaign will receive both of these things in the form of a digital download BEFORE their public release. They will also receive whatever else is offered as a part of the pledge tier.
