Hey Veronica and Tom!
I just posted this in the “”What Else Are You Reading?”” forum and wanted to make sure you saw it since I know you like supporting cool Kickstarter projects. This one is a “”techno epic/spiritual fiction”” graphic novel created by Wired magazine co-founder Kevin Kelly with several talented writers and artists and they’ve already completed the free-to-read book one and are looking for funding for book two.
Here’s the post in GoodReads: The Silver Cord – free graphic novel
Here’s the Kickstarter page: The Silver Cord — A Techno-Epic Graphic Novel
I love the show and would love hearing about this in a future episode!
Thanks,
Dan
