Wow.
This was one hell of an end to my week.
Thursday night, I sent a message to a friend, asking if he could advertise the project to any friends of his, as the finish line was just over a day away. He did so, and I went to sleep because it was late and I had to be up for work in the morning. I woke up to a donation from my friend, someone backing the paperback, and a large donation, from someone I didn't know, putting me over the finish line.
I couldn't believe it.
The pledges flooded in over the course of the day. I celebrated the campaign's success on a podcast with Aria and Dave from the Bargain Bin show, plus Will, whose show I'd been on previously, and the super artist Yan. It was made all the more memorable, or horrific, by the videos Aria made of me to act as intros and outros. I don't ever want to see them again.
So, as of this morning, my editor has the book and is working on it. I'm waiting for Indiegogo to send the cash to me so I can order the packaging and bookmarks. In the meantime, I've almost finished writing my next manuscript this weekend and will start another one as soon as I'm ready.
Tonight, I'm going to celebrate the campaign's success with some beer and ice cream. A massive thanks to all who supported the campaign by either backing or promoting. All of you are awesome.
The book will remain In Demand until fulfillment begins. Find it here until then. Cheers.
