       The #kickstarter for the #GoodOmens graphic novel has only been  open a few hours and is already 30x oversubscribed...https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/dunmanifestin/good-omensI'd be quite interested to understand why @neilhimself et al chose this route rather than a traditional approach.

       @webmink @neilhimself I think it sends a message to the "traditional model" that artists have options and they will use other options if one model is exploitative.Which is a good message to send at the moment.

       @webmink glad to see that Colleen Doran is doing the artwork. Her artwork on Gaiman's Snow, Glass, Apples was amazing.

       @lyda I agree - just like the message @pluralistic is sending the audiobook monopolist. Still, I'd love to read a rationale from @neilhimself (or another member of the team)

       @webmink @neilhimself a bit in the Kickstarter says they wanted to retain full creative freedom so that seems pretty sensible.
