so many things wrong in that article that the answer to the question doesn't end up seeming particularly important or interesting.

Still no announcement, huh?
I'm sure I won't make it anyway, should stop caring

No news in ages. Where did the Kickstarter money go?

seriously does NO ONE know her irl? surely one of the many contacts of an established NYC-based editor/publisher does? is there NO crossover between the occupy crew she runs with now and people who want to know where the $17k went?
― lex pretend, Thursday, 22 August 2013 15:10 (ten years ago) link
apparently not.
― scott seward, Thursday, 22 August 2013 15:10 (ten years ago) link
she's like where's waldo on facebook. she's everywhere. all kinds of occupy places. i feel bad about this. i like daphne.

Is it weird that I'm still at the point where I don't even care where my money went, i just want this to happen?

If she can't be bothered to say anything beyond "no comment" then I doubt there's much anyone else can do. maybe the threat of legal action would focus her mind.

its a little late for it to happen. how many publishers would want to retroactively put out a book that was timed to be released the way those books were.
― scott seward, Thursday, 22 August 2013 15:16 (ten years ago) link
i like daphne.
do you know her irl!

I figured. Hopefully anther publisher picks up the series at some point, but that's probably unlikely to happen either after all this.

there are literally a billion better ways to defend your peer from accusations of fraud than "but she's cool and you have a shitty job", lol @ Whiney

i only see her at the EMP conferences. she's always so nice. she's really smart. sometimes things happen. i don't claim to understand.

curious what proportion of donors to the kickstarter were music writers or involved in the music journalism industry in some way
