Is 6 weeks enough time to pull together a crowdfunding campaign?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I think so, and I plan to prove it. With The Crowdfunding Crucible<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before crowdfunding, I\u2019d spent over a year collecting polite rejection letters from agents and editors for my graphic novel project.

I\u2019d devoted years to it and was certain there was an audience for it. I firmly believed in the story as well as the story-behind-the-story.

After that year of rejections, I reworked the project and my approach to reaching that audience. It was through crowdfunding that I was able to directly and immediately activate my audience by spotlighting that story-behind-the-story.

The work to build a crowdfunding campaign not only led to funding, it opened doors where I had previously only seen barriers.

The opportunities which sprang from that first campaign include: additional publishing offers, book sales, grant awards, and gallery and museum recognition.

Most importantly, it opened my eyes to the importance of that “story behind the story.” <\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n@PLUGO<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

So it’s through this unique opportunity, offered to me by the community KidsComicsUnite.com<\/a> where I will help other talented creators anneal those stories and build a successful campaign around them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
