Any thoughts and ideas on using Kickstarter?
It's tough to go that route for a book unless you have an established audience. The content of a novel is difficult to present first-hand in a video, and posting excerpts on the kickstarter page won't get much attention. So you're not going to get random browsers to jump in. Unless you have a way of bringing interested eyeballs to your kickstarter project, you won't get any traction.
Thank you Devor. My partner and I are looking for ways to raise money for a illustrated novel and comic books. I'm the writer and he's the artist but we will have to bring in others on projects and expenses add up. From what I can tell the kickstarter projects that are raising the most money already have a audience and followers.. which we do not yet have. We also thought about doing a local fundraiser, which might be our better option.
