I have exciting news to share with you!

CLICK HERE TO BUY MY BOOK

 

Before I do, I want to say THANK YOU for being so supportive, generous, and positively glitterrific with your comments, posts, and "likes" on my Facebook Page, my website, twitter, in person, and ESPECIALLY in crayon drawings! =)

 

The news is about a project I have desperately longed to create and now after many fairy years of planning, it's FINALLY possible.

 

But only with the help from the most glitterific fans a fairy could ever dream of.

 

The last several years many musicians and artists have been using the internet to ask their fans to help fund production costs through websites like kickstarter.  Doing this helps them spread the expense over many sources and avoid the inconveniences of working with large production companies.  

 

It works like this …

 

Individuals can contribute small amounts or large to support the project.  They are then rewarded with gifts and products based on their contribution.  

 

So my news is …

 

I'm working on a book! I'm SO SO SO excited!! It will be everything you'd expect from me, containing magic, wonderment, whimsy. and absolutely no surprise glitter bombs. I save those for the unnecessarily rude =)

 

The expenses for completing the book include going to some of the most whimsical locations for never-before-imagined photos, enchanting costumes and new delightful characters, some stunningly spectacular illustrations, dazzling wonderful distribution costs, and fantastically marvelous printing costs.  My approximate budget for this is $30,000.

 

It's aggressive and totally achievable with your help.

 

Take a look over the rewards below.  You can contribute by clicking on the level that works for you below or by sending your contribution amount via PayPal to book@twigthefairy.com.  Every little bit will help.  You'll receive your reward for that contribution level AND all the gifts for the lower levels.

 

I hope to have my first printed copy of the book ready just before the holidays.

 

We have a 14 day window to fund the project. Thanks so much for considering supporting me!
