Finally Publishing a Book!!!

Kickstarter: Hidden Identities

I put together and launched a Kickstarter to help fund the publishing of my first book! Kickstarter is a crowdfunding website that helps people fund special projects. How does it work? Well, first of all you need people to back your project. If you click the link below, you will see a description of my publishing project as well as different pledges you can make that coincide with different rewards. The project goal is $2,000.00. That's what I need to publish through Outskirts Press with only the most basic package and basic marketing options. 

If the minimum goal gets backed by friends, family, and the book's supporters, then no more waiting, the book is getting published. After the minimum goal is hit, people can still continue to back the book. This is what Kickstarter calls "Stretch Goals". You label stretch goals for the backers offering more rewards for stretch goals reached. 

Any extra money made through this Kickstarter will go towards marketing, upgrades on publishing options, and making the book launch party more awesome! 

If you want to know more about my new book, then check out my Kickstarter page, please click the link below and check it out. If you can't or don't want to help me out with this project. That's perfectly okay, but I'd love it if you'd at least share the link on social media or with friends or family who might be interested in the genre to help spread the word. 

Thanks for supporting me and my first book!
