Halfway Through

Halfway Through the Kickstarter

Stunning that we are halfway through and doing so well. Two things happened today with the Fiction River subscription Kickstarter campaign. First, Kickstarter, without our asking or anything else, picked the campaign as One They Love. Notice the heart on the widget to the right? A wonderful endorsement by the web site. Thanks!

And secondly, we have 100 wonderful people who have supported the subscription drive. Wow, just wow.

Thank you, one and all! Just can’t say that enough.

Now we are really hoping to get to the third stretch goal because that is a project we all are excited about and would be a wonderful book to give to every supporter. So pass the word and help us hit that goal. Just click on the image in the widget to the right to go and get more information.

And here is a nifty new video Kris did called The Writers of Fiction River. It only has a few of the hundred and thirty different writers who have sold stories to Fiction River in the first four years, but it is still fun.

Also has a great picture or two of where we live and of Kris. I took that picture of her looking out over the ocean the other day. Good one, huh?

Enjoy.

The Day

I did nothing today at all besides hit my steps and do a few errands. Took a long nap, cooked dinner, watched television, and just took the night off. I ran some as well. But I’ll add that in after I do a little more.
