Kickstarter Author Photographed & Interviewed One Woman Every Day

Photographer Andrea Leoncavallo hopes to raise $10,000 to fund the creation of her art book project, She Inspires 365.

Here’s more about the project: “For one entire year I photographed and interviewed a different woman every day. I now have a body of work that consists of 365 portraits of ‘every day’ women with inspiring stories…Creating She Inspires 365 and watching it grow has been a life changing experience for me and I know the book will be much more than a book — it will be an enduring legacy for women to cherish.”

With the money, Leoncavallo will hire a designer, an editor and print 1,500 copies of the finished book. Above, we’ve embedded a video about the project–what do you think?

Welcome to our Kickstarter Publishing Project of the Week, a feature exploring how authors and publishers are using the fundraising site to raise money for book projects. If you want to start your own project, check out How To Use Kickstarter to Fund Your Publishing Project.
