Assassins Kickstarter Set to Start Tuesday

In today’s email, from Smart Rhino Publications Editor/Publisher Weldon Burge: If you haven’t seen the announcement on Facebook yet, Kickstarter has given me the go-ahead for the campaign and it’s scheduled to launch this Tuesday. They’ve posted an “upcoming” page, which allows folks to sign up for a reminder. Please share where you can to get the word out.

The kickstartee, as it were, is ASININE ASSASSINS (see May 24, March 4, 3), with my silliness in the salmagundi a mini-epic yclept “Shooting Fish” about a would-be alien invasion of Earth gone wrong. Or that is, it will go wrong unless the crack advance scout team of Brrolz and Glomo are able to fulfill a perfectly reasonable request by Supreme Invasion Commander Fakhboom.

But back to the kickstarter, the email continues: The campaign includes “stretch goals” in the hope to pay the writers more for their work. As you probably know, the project is funded out-of-pocket until the crowdfunding campaign accrues the needed funding. Once we can cover the book production costs, I’d like to increase your pay if possible. . . .

Well, you get the idea, or, we the writers have our own dog in this fight as well. Please do give it a try. More will come, including a link, when the site goes live, but for a sort of “sneak peek” one can press here now. Then, should the spirit so move, as noted above there’s a place there to click if you wish to get your own personal reminder sent to you Tuesday as well.
