I’m delighted to welcome Matt Forbeck to the site today. I came across Matt via Kickstater and noticed his very ambitious quest of publishing 12 books in 2012. Needless to say I was intrigued, sent him an email, and spent 30 minutes picking his brain.
It is now here for you to watch or listen (the choice is yours), and trust me, this is something writers of varying levels can learn from.
Oh, and if you’re thinking about starting a Kickstarter event, this holds a few tips from a man who knows his stuff.
