[QUOTE="matthewdcorley, post: 7963382, member: 6882671"] [B]Kickstarting During a Pandemic[/B] A question I’ve been asked a lot is why am I doing a Kickstarter in the midst of the pandemic. Crowdfunding is hard at the best of times, and this is far from that. Folks are laid off, disposable income is diminished, and we have other things to be worried about. These books created work (and will create more work) for 17 people. That’s why I went ahead. The folks involved with the KS have all been affected financially by the current circumstances, and when funded this project will help all of us. Before I go any further every person has already been paid for work that’s been completed. What’s on the line is additional work, bonuses for funding (and beyond), royalties, and for me to recoup what’s been paid out. How can you help? The easiest way is to share posts on your social media. You may have folks that like horror or RPGs and don’t even know it. Maybe they know folks that would be interested. It all helps. Organic growth of projects like this have an enormous positive impact, and I can’t do it without your help. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/37222410/the-devils-city-for-5e[/URL] Obviously, pledges help too, but I want you to take care of you and yours first. These books will be published one way or another, and you can come back around later if this is your thing. Please feel free to ask me anything in the comments, share this post far and wide, and stay safe. Matt [/QUOTE]
