I posted my first project update at Kickstarter yesterday; briefly, though I’d hoped for a slightly busier first week the Clockwork Book project is still outperforming my last promotion over there. So, you know, mixed feelings of relative triumph.
The project’s picked up some attention from Dark Roasted Blend, Super Punch, Raypunk.org, Iron Mammoth, and a few other scattered mentions on blogs, Facebook, and Twitter. My ongoing mission is to seek out new avenues for promotion, drive them before me, and listen to the lamentation of their… no, sorry. Wrong idiom there.
Anyway, though, that’s nearly correct: I’ll be looking for more ways to spread the word about the Clockwork Book project so I can build on its early momentum. Most of the action on Kickstarter projects comes in the final week – so I want to make sure that the news has spread as far as possible before we get there. Or then. Whatever.
As always, feel free to Tell Everyone. You can embed the project widget (as I did here) or even the project video through links on the Kickstarter page.There’s another embeddable video over at Vimeo. I hate what YouTube does to my videos so I won’t point you at that one.
In other news, I mentioned a couple of days back that new Clockwork Book desktop wallpapers and a screensaver are up at the Thrilling Tales downloads page. Go forth and use bandwidth!
In the meantime I’m splitting my days between the last ten illustrations for The Lair of the Clockwork Book and a CD design project. Busy, busy days this month.
