My best friend Jennifer’s birthday is on October 12th. We met at a writer’s meeting a couple of years ago and often compare notes regarding our mutual goal of writing children’s books.
Jennifer has written several stories and her frustration has been to find illustrators to illustrate the books. She plans to self-publish them because they are written for her daughter and Jennifer knows exactly how she wants them to look. But illustrators are expensive.
So Jennifer decided to give crowd-funding a try and she planned to roll her campaign out on her birthday. To prepare for this, the two of us have spent a lot of time trying to learn social media and how best to market oneself in this new high-tech world.
To give my friend ‘some extra help’, here is the birthday card I made and gave to her.
And here is the link for Jennifer’s funding. I totally support her efforts!
