The #LocoLocalized #Kickstarter campaign is a SUCCESS! The initial goal has been REACHED!

WOOHOO!!

So let’s discuss stretch goals, shall we?

The choices thus far are:

1- An Audio Book of “Hi! My Name is Loco…” in English (perhaps later in Japanese, as well) read by yours truly! Funds would be used for a recording studio and hiring the personnel required to get it done properly (engineer, editor, mixer etc…)

2- Manga-ization of book two: “Loco in Yokohama”
(Those of you who’ve read LIY know the funny misadventures at Syouganai and Mendokusai Junior high Schools are rife for illustration! It’s stars, namely characters like Matsui-kun and Mika-chan. The funds would be used to pay for the artist(s).

3- A National Reading / Lecture / Workshop Tour around Japan (Maybe 5-10 cities nationwide), coördinated with supporters, backers, and interested parties in those cities. The funds would be used for travel expenses.

I’ve started a poll, so if you have a chance (it’s very short, maybe it’ll take you 1 minute to do it) have a look.
