Success! Satisfaction! Surprise! Peace.

Thank you so much for your trust, firestarter. All proceeds from contributions will go towards the Author Advances Fund.

Creativity is not something that can be forced into a timeline! While an advance is generally a modest sum, it is still an important recognition that a creative needs resources in order to have the freedom to create. It also acknowledges that creative work is of value, regardless of what any financial gains may be once that work is available for purchase.

Have you ever dreamed of being published, exhibiting your art, or shining on stage or screen? This fund may help you make that dream a reality one day, and in the meantime, it will help other authors make their dream come alive! Let's dream big!
