Charlie Stickney is one of the more successful crowdfunding creators on Kickstarter. With titles like White Ash, Glarien, The Game, and How I Slept My Way Through College and Other Tales of My Freshman Year Charlie has captured the imaginations of comic book fans who search for their sequential media fix on the popular crowdfunding platform. He’s been so successful with his books that he’s even been able to parlay that Kickstarter success into getting his books distributed into comic shops via Scout Comics. On this episode of Part-Time Fanboy, Charlie returns to the podcast to chat about how he managed to use Kickstarter to achieve his success. He talks about the economics of the platform, how he uses the launch of a previous book to support the funding of the comics that follow, and how he’s been able to use his popularity in crowdfunding to branch out from the fantasy setting of White Ash and explore new avenues of storytelling for himself and his readers!
