Larry’s comments from the Anyone use Indiegogo? group.

My campaign is strictly a fund-raiser for marketing my book. I've had so many people say it needs to be a movie that I am putting all my energy into pursuing that goal. I realize there is a very remote chance of this happening, but I get the bit in my teeth and run, most of the time. I want to have some professional trailers made for Youtube, as well as hiring a narrator for the audiobook version, hoping to find "The right person" that may have ties to a major publisher or investors intereted in making a film based on an unknown author. I have some interested people here in Colorado, in the Colorado Film Commission, and have spoken with small studios from New Mexico and Alabama, but I need to generate some "buzz" to hopefully interest investors. I'd never heard of crowd funding, but thought it couldn't hurt to try it. All I have to lose is confidence....:)

I haven't checked out Kickstarter, so I don't know how similar they are. A friend suggested Indiegogo to me, so I checked it out and started a campaign. I like the idea of yours, for promoting a charity.
