Update #3 · Jan 21, 2012 · 2 comments

We're over halfway to our goal! Thanks.

First, we made a cool poster that goes over what Leebre does for authors. We already spiced up our main Kickstarter page with this. Show this to your friends to explain the Leebre process for authors!

It is pretty amazing how many people have been helping us with our Kickstarter. You guys have helped us with pledges, you've been spreading the word on Twitter, publishing articles and writing blog entries about us. Thanks a lot. We're 55% funded, but we only have 10 days left to fund-raise. If you'd like to help us, please continue to write about Leebre.org on Twitter and on Facebook. Tell your friends about us. If you have blogs, just post a quick entry about our Kickstarter. We're entirely indebted to you guys, and your support means a lot to us.

Finally, a quick shout out to some of the news posts about us, and also thanks for all of the retweets. Keep it up guys, you are really helping! We are relying on you to spread the word and make this project a reality.

Below, is a screenshot from the book editor. To keep these updates short and sweet, I'm leaving the more technical stuff for the Leebre project blog, so be sure to check that out for more info!

      Oops, thanks Paul. Fixed now. I thought something looked weird... :)

      It all looks good except for a small typo: 'editting' is only spelled with one 't.' Keep up the great work!!!
