I've started my first Kickstarter campaign and could use any and all feedback. A few months ago myself and my 11-year old daughter created an animated short children's story about how we all pray to the same God, no matter the name we may use for Him. Now, I'm trying to raise funds to make it into a children's book. The link can be found here:

Comments most appreciated. If you like the idea, please pass along.

Much thanks.

Hi Brad,

That's quite a video you have there... must have taken you a while to make! If KS doesn't work out you might want to consider a religious funding site, such as: http://www.faithlauncher.com/

Thanks for the response. I'll take a look it things don't work out.

I agree, Vaporstarter. Quite a video!!!
And I have MUCH respect for how hard it is to make an awesome video.
That is cool, that there is a crowd funding site focused on religious based projects!

Appreciate the feedback. Any advice on getting the word out. Any sites I should be looking at?

I would spend a good two hours on google looking up children's book related communities and putting them in an excel spreadsheet. You can then create an engagement strategy out of those resources. This is what I usually do when researching for articles or when creating media lists for CrowdfundingPR.

Once you do that research, be sure to share the findings with us (or I can publish it as a blog post and credit you) so that other creators can benefit.

Also be sure to check out this interview with a children's book creator: http://www.crowdfundingpr.org/janky-pat ... ckstarter/
