UPDATE: We are now on Curtis' FOURTH ABC book, all funded through Kickstarter Campaigns.

Here's a perfect example of how to get your Kickstarter Children’s Book Funded!

Curtis surpassed his original ask by three times the amount (as of this writing) and I’m happy to announce I will be continuing his Children’s Book Illustrations for his clever Alphabet Monster book. He’s a prime example of how to win at Kickstarter Campaigns.

Curtis brilliantly leveraged a secondary market (which is his day job!) to fund his project less than a week into his campaign by spreading the word to his colleagues on Twitter. You can check out his campaign and how he structured it here: https://www.kickstarter.com/proje…/curtbraz/m-is-for-malware. Essentially, his book concept aligns perfectly with the adult market, and he has filled this niche with a never-before-seen product. Very clever!

Congratulations on your funding, Curtis! I’m excited to continue creating your monster illustrations and see you published.
