We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on March 27, 2012.

We reached our goal!

Update #1 · Feb 27, 2012 · comment

Hello everyone,

Thanks to each and every one of you for your contributions toward our goal of $1100. We would not have made it without you!

And there are still 28 days left in the campaign! We intend to use any surplus toward sending a larger percentage of the audio books for FREE to people who might not otherwise be able to afford them. Thanks for your help to share this project with a wider audience!

I will keep you posted on our progress. In the meantime, here are a couple recent interviews with me about my process:
