You guys want to see a really well-done Kickstarter for an author moving into the gaming world. Take a look at Holly Black’s new campaign. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hollyblack/enemies-and-lovers-the-crown-of-elfhame Really nice art, a very clean and clear layout and description of what you get. Just about a perfect campaign in a lot of ways. Worth studying. Now going to go away from this computer and do nothing for the rest of Friday night. Hope you all have a great weekend.

What Exactly Is A Brand??? Well, the general definition of a brand is pretty easy. It is a product or service that is set out and apart in such a way as to be clear to the public that it can be distinguished from other similar products or services. It is also a mark you burn into a horse or cow to show ownership, but we won’t go there, even though the concept is the same.
