    I'm the one who lost her book somehow at the party! (Although that reflects well on you guys...) I'd be happy to pay for another one if there are enough.

    A Little Good has its first funder!

    I'm absolutely thrilled to announce that A Little Good is officially off to the races. The project got its first pledge, and its first Good Backer, no less! And I've only tweeted about it once, which means a 100% return on media messaging so far. Not bad at all. I think the next step is to get a video up, so keep an eye out for that in the next day or two.

    In the meantime I'm catching up on my entrepreneurial reading. GOOD magazine (full disclosure: I've worked with them on a few projects) is running an excellent blog feature called "Diary of a Social Venture Start-up" that's in its fifth installment. It's well worth a look for anyone thinking about launching any idea, social enterprise or otherwise.

    A huge thanks to my first funder, and more news to come soon!

    Robin writes a book (and you get a copy) by Robin Sloan

    I'm writing a detective story set halfway between San Francisco and the internet. And the more people who reserve a copy, the better each one will be!

    Thank you!!!

    Hi all,

    Tomorrow you'll get a proper video thanks from me, but for now I'm so incredibly grateful for your support. It means the world to me.

    I'll be in touch throughout the month to let you know when your vlog mentions/goods are coming. And now I better get to bed--I have a new digest video to film tomorrow!
