Your post meets my needs for truth, honesty, feeling feelings, clarity and awe so many gifts received of being in community creating.
I am offering a few data resources if they are welcome as an ackowledgment of the truth of those clenched butt cheeks, an appreciation for the dark humor of the reality of those cheeks - and just naming how hard it is as a creator to ride the funding curve for any crowdsource project. I see how hard you are working and am cheering for your absolute success.
Oh this is great stuff, thank you!! I'm glad to see you should have 50% in the first week, I got there! But I really believed in the final spike and that supposedly isn't a given. So those butt cheeks remain firm :D
Of course your cheeks are still tight, that makes absolutel sense to me! And yes the spike as a natural phenomenon is a myth, spikes happen in proportion to marketing and asking people to help push over the end goal. Good luck 👍🏽 💓 ✨️
I can only imagine it's a bum squeaky time! I am so looking forward to celebrating the book. Also, have loved your travel stories, great insights and detail 😀
HOO RAY - Cheeks released! Fully Funded!
YES! I wonder what I should fret about now! 😄
I wonder if marketing recipe is one part panic, one part copy, dash of what the f, bake and cross your fingers?
HAHAHA! Sounds perfectly true!

That is really helpful. If panic and marketing efforts correlate, that spike at the end makes total sense!
