Here’s a funding campaign that you might find interesting. The anthology is called Mothership: Tales from Afrofuturism & Beyond, and it features a spectacular array of authors including Lauren Beukes, Tobias Buckell, Junot DÃaz, Minister Faust, N.K. Jemisin, Rochita Loenen-Ruiz, Kiini Ibura Salaam, Sofia Samatar, Nisi Shawl and Vandana Singh. As this is IndieGoGo rather than Kickstarter, the campaign doesn’t have to reach a target in order for the project to happen. So any money you give will go through, regardless of whether the target is met. But given the high profile of the people involved I don’t think there is any danger of this not happening. Of course they could still do with your help. And hey, an ebook anthology with all of those awesome folks and more, for just $10.
And just in case you need any more incentive, here’s George and the boys laying down the P-Funk.
Got funk, y’all? Clicken ye here, and get with the beat.
