You've written a book...and now you need money for design and printing; money for marketing; money to develop a website; even money for a PR campaign. Money. If your resources are low, and your bank yawns when you approach it, there's another way.

Welcome to OPM! Other people's money...money that is given to you and money that you don't have to pay back. Welcome to crowdfunding.

You want the odds are on your side. To be in the 30 percent minority. If you are an author or author-to-be, you want to succeed. You want to be in the 30 percent that succeed in a publishing crowdfunding project. Not the 70 percent that don't.

Get hot tips for creating momentum and the final push.
Structure a social media checklist that s ideal for your project.

Heres the guide you've been looking for that is easy and understandable that will show you how to set budgets and limit costs. Does crowdfunding work? Yes. Is it doable? Absolutely...with some help.

With The Crowdfunding Guide for Authors and Writers, you've got Judith Briles at your side. As the Book Shepherd and publishing coach, all her authors have been over-funded. You can be too.

The crowdfunding "bible", a must-have resource for authors!

This is the crowdfunding "bible" -- your most valuable resource as you start your next book project. Whether you're with a traditional house or are publishing independently, part of your author-job in the 21st century is to find and enroll your readers in the excitement of your book, and the difference it will make in their lives. Raising funds is part of it -- whether for printing or marketing costs. But so is calling yourself into your best sense of authenticity, which is what crowdfunding is all about. Judith Briles' book is condensed enough not to overwhelm, complete enough to protect you from errors, and inspiring enough to convince you that it's time to get started. Don't miss owning this valuable resource!

A Must-Have Book for Authors and Writers!

Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2015

I highly recommend this book for authors and writers seeking a clear, concise and practical guide to crowdfunding. Judith Briles presents all the steps for planning and implementing a successful crowdfunding game plan in each chapter. I found the information in "Timelines" and "Social Media Checklist" chapters invaluable, though the whole book shouldn't be missed! If you're thinking about a crowdfunding campaign, you'll find this book extremely helpful for every step along the way. The CrowdFunding Guide for Authors & Writers

Raising monies for a personal public project (such as a book) can be extremely daunting. Judith's Briles takes a lot of guess work out of this in her "Crowdfunding Guide for Authors & Writers." I can't speak for all writers, but as a self-publishing author working on my second book, I found Judith's book a helpful guide in a situation, I needed help in. 3 1/2 stars.

I feel this book, although it has some good content, was published in haste, thus lacks the means to clearly convey several key areas that can better equip the crowdfunding candidate for a successful campaign.

This is the biggest rip-off I've fallen for in ages. $15 for large-print 80-page small mini-guide book?! Cutesy but definitely not worth the cost.
