Ecstatic Revival's First Publication!
My first publication is a compilation of haiku that I’ve been writing for a while now. I’ve launched a Kickstarter to help fund this project and I hope that the publication of this will lead to more volumes and future publications for Ecstatic Revival.
Check out the project here.
There are some pretty nifty rewards and all contributors receive a PDF copy of the book when it’s finished.
