Elisabeth described her experience with Kickstarter, including lessons learned from not funding the first time around and recommendations for other creatives considering using Kickstarter to fund their own initiatives.   Listen here or on: iTunes | Stitcher | Spotify | Google | TuneIn | Amazon | Player FM | Deezer Watch on YouTube   Links www.writingrefinery.com www.facebook.com/elisabeth.kauffman.731 www.instagram.com/fairbetty/   Title The Tarot, Creativity, & Kickstarter with Elisabeth Kauffman   Keywords tarot, creativity, kickstarter, funding, writing process
