Ghostwoods Books: a Kickstarter, a chance, and a lot of fiction in the wind.

I try not to post about Kickstarters too much. I'm a short fiction addict, both as a reader and a writer, and if I started posting about every anthology KS that came along, y'all would start pelting me with rocks in fairly short order. I do not like being pelted with rocks. It hurts.

That being said, sometimes there's a need. I'd like to tell you about Ghostwood Books. A small press with five years of experience, they're looking to fund an entire year of amazing new fiction through the crowd-funding platform. Self-serving memo: they asked me to be in one of their anthologies. Even more self-serving memo: that's the only one of their books that I would be involved with, meaning I would get to read the rest.

They have sixty-eight hours to hit their goal, and they're less than halfway there. Please, take a look. Something just might catch your fancy.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention - I funded at the £140 level because a) they seem like a really interesting and fair company, b) more books! and c) I've had a completed novel sitting on my hard drive for the last year and getting a professional to look at the first 20k words seems like an excellent idea, both for the quality of the book and to try and conquer my fear of sending it to someone to try and get it published.

Despite being a very long way off on Saturday, they've had a late flurry and just successfully funded an hour ago. Hurray!
