As anyone reading this blog on anything approaching a regular basis has probably noticed, I am a fan of Kickstarter.  For those coming late to the party, Kickstarter is a way for creative types to get financing for their projects.

Kickstarter gives you the chance to support projects you genuinely interested in seeing, reading, or interacting with, which is a pleasant change from someone else deciding what you do or don’t like.

The types of projects run the gamut from comic-related properties, new electronic inventions, music and just about everything in between.

One of the Kickstarters I invested a little bit of moolah in was Mark Andrew Smith’s baseball horror project, “Sullivan’s Sluggers.”

One of the perks is a hard-cover copy of the finished book, and it looks gorgeous.

Here’s another picture.  Take a look at that beautiful color and artwork.

Every Kickstarter project is unique, so you mileage may vary, but as someone who has invested my hard-earned ducats in at least three Kickstarter projects so far, I have nothing but love for the experience I have had so far.

And perhaps most importantly, a project like “Sullivan’s Sluggers” would probably not happen without our help.  By contributing you are allowing creative people to bring their dreams to life.

Which is well worth the minimal investment.
