Hello. I am a new author of YA Paranormal. My first book in a series just came out a few months ago and is already doing really well. I have been receiving tons of requests to make the series available in audio.
Seeing how I myself am blind, it seems like a logical idea. In fact, it seems a little silly that a blind author wouldn't have their books available in accessible formats for readers such as themselves.
I run a blog on the subject of blindness and from that have a wide following. I want to make fans happy, but unfortunately one down side to self publishing is the cost of audio book production.
I've recently started a project on Kick Starter, which is a crowd funding web site for creative projects. My project will be going until November 1st at 3:15pm. I am trying to raise enough funds to make the first two books in my series in audio.
I am asking all of you to please check out my project page and consider pledging. There are great rewards for backers such as free books, autographed prints, contributor mention in the audio book, mystery prizes and even a chance to have a character named after you in a future book. While my rewards aren't expensive and lavish, I did work hard to try and make them special. I figured I could send big bucks on major prizes, but then why would I need Kick Starter in the first place:)
Thank you very much for your time and I hope you decide to help. Every dollar counts and time is running out. If I do not reach my goal I don't get any money. So I would love any support I can get.
