Almost To First Stretch Goal
Just Over a Week In… And we are only $400 from the first stretch goal on the Year of the Cat Kickstarter campaign. Thank you, everyone!! Now, please help pass the word so we can get up to those stretch goals with lectures and workshops involved. Not even half way through the time yet, so more than enough time to make it. Thanks again, everyone. Link to Year of the Cat Kickstarter.

Kind of Fun Cat Video
About Our Making Our Kickstarter Goal… Gwyneth at WMG Publishing did this for fun and I thought I would show it here. Nifty that we are past our goal, but we could use a bunch more help on getting the cat books, all 12 monthly anthologies, break even. And if anyone has any ideas for some rewards we hadn’t thought of, write me. Glad to consider just about anything. And by the way, if you are thinking about the mentor program with me, when this Kickstarter is over, that’s the end of them. I won’t offer them again. I’ll just keep working with the great writers I am working with…

Kickstarter Made It!!
Yes, We Hit Our Ask… And it was no small ask, either. Yet we still hit it in just over four days. Wow, and thank you all who have supported it so far. Very much appreciated!! The reason we had to ask for $5,000 is because of the costs of publishing 100 stories, mostly by other writers. $5,000 doesn’t cover it, but it was enough to get us going and even if we don’t go much above that, we can cover the rest of the costs to produce all twelve books, plus the large one at the end. But we hope to go above that ask amount and get readers…

Fun Kickstarter Workshops
Details of the Kickstarter Workshop Deals… I thought I would outline the fun details of the workshops being offered in this nifty Year of the Cat Kickstarter project. — Year of the Cat Detailed Study of All 100 Stories. The books will come out one anthology per month for 12 months. Each anthology will have either eight or nine stories in it. Kris and I will talk about what makes each story work and I will do a video focused to fiction writers at learning craft on why the story worked, what makes it work, and so on. ALL POSITIVE. You will get all twelve books and read the stories…

The Year of the Cat… That’s right, Kristine Kathryn Rusch and I are editing a huge new project called The Year of the Cat, with 100 cat stories spread over 12 monthly anthologies. Lots of writers will have stories in these volumes, the first one of which is coming out in May. Here is the video to show you what we are doing. Here is the link to the Kickstarter… And below are the first few covers of the monthly anthologies. This Kickstarter has some really fun stuff. And for writers, a bunch cool things as well, including a special How to Write a Cat Story workshop like we did…

Four New Videos in Licensing Transition
Plus the Holiday Spectacular Funded… It officially made two stretch goals on Kickstarter, but we also took money outside of Kickstarter this time because of Kickstarter’s political problems, and we ended up also hitting the third stretch goal in total. A complete success, better than we had hoped. So everyone who supported the Holiday Spectacular will get all three stretch rewards, plus the reward they picked. Surveys going out next week. And don’t worry if you missed out on the nifty idea of getting 35 holiday stories in 35 days, we will have a web page dedicated to that where you can get a subscription to the stories. Or buy…

Only One Stretch Goal Left… And only 48 hours to hit the 6th Stretch Goal. So don’t delay. But first I want to thank everyone who has helped us get this far. Five Stretch goals. Wow, just wow. Thank you. But it might be possible to go a little farther, so here is the 6th goal… Stretch Goal #6… Cats ($30,000) Everyone tells us that on the internet, the best thing you can do is have a cat somewhere. So here we go. In celebration of reaching this level, Kris will do her best to get pictures of our cats and post them. And maybe some of our past cats…

Two Days Left
Set Another Stretch Goal! We are almost to our 5th stretch goal, so with two days left, we wanted to set another stretch goal, one that seems a little out of reach, but still possible. So the 6th stretch goal has a Pop-Up Bundle for writers (worth $600) and a nifty anthology for readers. Cattitude. I really hope we hit it because I would love to have everyone get a free copy of this anthology. Cover below. And thanks for all the wonderful support. Help us pass the word for the last two days. Thanks!
