Sometimes the books I buy are for work. From Spark to Finish: Running Your Kickstarter Campaign (by M.C.A. Hogarth) is one of those times. My next Kickstarter is going to need to make more money than usual; not more money than I’ve hit in the past, but enough that I need to do some research. Yay!
I know, I know. It beats the alternative, which is: no books…

I picked up M.C.A. Hogarth’s Business for the Right-Brained (A Guide for Artists, Writers, Musicians, Dancers, Crafters, And All the Other Dreamers) last year, and have just started actually reading it (now that I pretty much have to). It’s a good book. It has plenty of useful suggestions, beginning with that you remember that you’re now doing three jobs, not one. Just thinking about some of this stuff is clarifying things for me, which is very helpful. Check it out, if you think that you might need to.

Never underestimate the power of social media. I came across author M.C.A. Hogarth on Twitter because she kept saying interesting things that other people retweeted; and her space opera book Earthrise was available for free on Kindle. So I figured, why not?
…And here we are.
And so, adieu to Herb-Witch. I’m already at book three in THAT series.
