She was a breakable teacup with a guarded heart and he was a burning shot of whiskey looking to shatter walls. They were two lives crashing into each other at full speed, for a whirlwind journey of love, heartache, and bad decisions.

Since kicking off my crowdfunding campaign for Where the Sun Sets I’ve learned that I have no idea what I’m doing. I’ve also learned that I’m not alone. In fact, there are countless other clueless authors who are just like me!  

So I’m putting together a video series -a free online resource-  called Coming Clean on Crowdfunding to help us all be a little less clueless, and a little more likely to succeed in making our dreams a reality.


Coming Clean on Crowdfunding is a series of short video interviews (3-5 min. long), where each video showcases a single author who has chosen to crowdfund their literary darling into existence. 

For our first interview we’ll be hearing from the lovely Janna Grace, author of The Talkers are Talking.  Tune in to hear Janna tell us about her experience participating in an Inkshares contest, what she did wrong with her campaign, what she did right, and more.



Throughout the series we’ll be hearing from authors at all different stages in their campaign, from everywhere around the world. Should be very cool!

I’ll be posting them on YouTube HERE.

The first episode will be available later this evening/first thing in the morning. I’ll update the thread so you know when to take a peek.

If you like what you see and want to see more episodes from different authors, please subscribe! Post your comments or questions to the channel or to this thread, and please highlight the types of questions you’d like to see answered. If you have an experience you’d like to share in an episode, please reach out to me & we’ll set up a time to chat! 

I hope you find these interviews as fun and insightful as I do! 

Donna

    From someone who is mid-campaign: Janna’s advice is invaluable. I’ve already done two things differently from having spoken with her, and have seen positive results :) Yeehaw!

    I hope you find this resource useful. If you do, I encourage you to share with your author friends who you think might find it useful too.

    THANK YOU JANNA!

      Alright folks! #2 is up! 

      Following on the coattails of the lovely @Janna Grace , we have the lovely @Jane-Holly Meissner  to talk about her unique experience that involves extending her campaign and persevering.

      https://youtu.be/0idNwVG9isM


      (Apologies in advance for my audio pooping out a bit. I’ve figured it out and won’t have that issue moving forward, but oh man do computers really suck sometimes.) Other than that, it’s ready to rock! 

      @Liz Kerin there’s no comment about blogs or Reddit in this one, but some mention of Facebook. I can echo Jane-Holly’s experience in that it wasn’t worth the investment! You can tune in about mid-way to hear what she has to say on the topic. I’ve got a few conversations lined up, and I’ll make sure to ask.

      --

      Other authors who you can look forward to hearing from include: @Alastair Luft, @Jason Pomerance , @Amanda Orneck and @Ferd Crôtte  to name a few. There are others lined up, but I’ll hold back on names since our interview date are TBD :)

      Topics I’m looking forward to covering include: social platforms that have worked for different writers, what possible communities you can go to for pre-orders that are bit outside-the-box, motivational tips, etc.

      Comments & questions are welcome! So are suggestions & volunteers who want to share their learnings.
