So I got on Facebook to check my messages this evening, and found a note from my father that just said, “Check your GoFundMe.”
Over I go to the website to find THIS, along with another note:
“I've always believed in your writing talent. Let me help you realize your dreams. Love Dad.“
I have to put this in context: my Dad is a hyper-conservative Christian and he’s never really been happy with the fact that I’m a pagan and a practicing witch. We’ve butted heads over it a couple of times. It’s something we generally just don’t talk about, in the interest of keeping the peace.
But he loves his daughter and he believes in my writing, apparently enough that he’s just finished off the remaining HALF of the Grimmoire publication startup fund.
So, um, yeah...as soon as the draft is finished and the illustrations finalized, we have all the funds we need to publish and begin printing copies for giveaways and local distribution.
Thanks, Daddy. Thanks for believing in me. And thank you to all the other wonderful people who contributed to the fund. Anna and I can’t thank you enough. <3
