Katherine Dunn and Pino

I want to share a project on Kickstarter of an artist/writer I know named Katherine Dunn of Apifera Farm. She has written a beautiful collection of short stories with art and her photography about the many old and neglected creatures that make it into her barnyard.
This is a labor of love for Katherine. She says the stories of this project make her sing and cry all at once. She posted one of the stories that will be in the book - about an 18 year old goat - on her Kickstarter page [see Updates] and it will give you a flavor of the writing. It is heartfelt, quirky and has a fable quality like all her art.
Kickstarter works like this: You pledge an amount [from $15 to $1,000] and in turn you get a gift in return [you can opt out of the gift]. Different gifts are posted by Katherine on the site. Your credit card is not charged until the entire goal is reached and then it is all handled by a secure site. This project is 30% funded and has until until Jan 30 to make the goal.

The campaign page has a video and slideshow of "Misfits of Love" along with explanations of rewards to pledgers. She also updates that page frequently with 'updates'.
By pledging even the smallest amount you will be apart of something oh~so~GRAND!
Happy New Year!
