For those of you who have been following, I was running a Kickstarter program to try and fund an anthology project called Winter in the City.
The project, unfortunately, never got past the 40% funding mark. I won’t pretend I’m not disappointed that this first attempt did not succeed and I still believe the concept for the anthology is sound. I also believe the project isn’t entirely dead but rather, let’s just say, it’s in a medically induced coma.
First off, I want to say thank you. So many of you blogged, tweeted and shared information of the fundraiser. Many even donated and I am grateful for your support. I’d like to especially thank M. J. King and Marty Halpern for their help specifically with the fundraiser. Also, a big thanks to Kip Ayers for his brilliant artwork and to the few folks who helped get the word out (you know who you are and I owe you all a debt).
Perhaps this is the Universe’s way of telling me to stop messing about and to get on with my own writing projects.
But we’ll see. I have the paddles ready should I decide to bring this project back to life in a different form in the New Year.
You all have been wonderful and supportive—Thank you.
Kindest regards,
R. B. Wood
