With leading platforms such as Kickstarter, GoFundMe, and Indiegogo, the dreams of entrepreneurs are coming true. The concept behind crowdfunding is a brilliant one. Not only does it give the entrepreneur complete control over their product, but it gives the general public a significant degree of power. The faith that comes with trusting the masses to make or break one’s venture is both daunting and beautiful.
The fear always lurks, and the entrepreneur cannot help but wonder whether their product will stand strongly on its own to become fully funded, because at the end of the day, one can only do so much to promote in words why a consumer should fund a project. The beauty, however, outweighs this gnawing fear. It brings communities together to share in their mutual interests, to celebrate fully funded victories, and to witness a dream come to life for the enjoyment of others.
As I prepare to embark on the journey of crowdfunding for Two Hearts That Beat as One, I trust I have done all that I could to emphasize the importance of this dream. Not only Sonia’s dream, but mine as well. Regardless of the outcome, the value of this autobiography will not be diminished. Sonia’s story will be told, one way or another. I nevertheless appreciate the support I have received leading to this day, and the support to come thereafter.
Two Hearts That Beat as One is now officially available for purchase: here.
