If we hit 10k in funding...
There are a few things that happen if we hit 10k in funding. I have pledged that I will kick in the extra cash needed to bump the quality of both books up in terms of professional publishing help and quality of the materials themselves.
Also for the Fark.com backers I will put up a poll to allow you farkers to choose my trail name and trust me I have had several suggestions.. :)
A few other items of note regarding this project:
I have gotten sponsorship from several really cool equipment companies that are helping me out with gear.
Ultralight Adventure Equipment
And a few new ways to communicate:
Just Launched a website about daily life with a tumor and this project - http://www.going-south.org
A.T. Specific Blog: The Dusty Camel
Facebook Fan Page for the Books: https://www.facebook.com/goingsouthAT
Twitter : @beholderbill
Hope you all are having a great week, if you have any suggestions please email me goingsouthhiker@gmail.com
Best,
Bill
