Crowdfunding and Smart Rhino

Crowdfunding.

Kickstarter. Indiegogo. GoFundMe.

Hmmm �

Worthwhile for independent publishers? I guess we�ll find out.

Smart Rhino Publications is currently running a Kickstarter campaign for the upcoming ZIPPERED FLESH 3 anthology. We�ve lined up 14 writers so far, and we�d like to pay them pro rates�they deserve it. But it all comes down to the success of the campaign. It�s all or nothing with Kickstarter. Tricky. Suspenseful. Worthwhile? We certainly hope so.

Check out our campaign site, see what you think.

To help the campaign along, we�re providing great rewards for those folks who pledge in support. You can get a thumb drive containing e-versions of ZF3. Paperback books. A Smart Rhino mug. Books. A print of the cover art. Editing of a short story by yours truly. Did I mention books?

We even created a rather icky promo video for the campaign. (Not for the squeamish!)

And I also made a personal appeal for the Kickstarter.

So, what do you think? Does this interest you? Do you feel compelled to support ZIPPERED FLESH 3 and its writers?

We�re crossing our fingers �
