Regardless of your motives, once again, thanks, folks. It is very much appreciated.
I would be remiss if I didn't note that while the Kickstarter is over, it's still possible to sponsor the Kriti festival, making it possible for us to add more cool stuff, and extend more affordable registration to those in financial need. I'd love to do this again in a few years, twice as big, and make it completely free to the public. That would be so great.
Sponsorship comes with a few nice perks -- VIP seating at events, intimate meals with the author, editor and agent Guests of Honor, space in our lovely program book to advertise your favorite projects, etc. and so on. But mostly, it's a way to express your support. More info below.
