Mike Jay wrote:I think I sense an opportunity to translate. K, I suspect Paul's answer to your question is the PEP philosophy, bootcamp, deep roots and ant programs at Wheaton Lab. They are methods for someone with minimal capital to learn the skills and get the land they need to live the dream. They are somewhat limited to his site in Montana but the idea of them could be very transferable.
So his question back to you is if those programs should be included in the book.

A Few Experiments Being Conducted on Human Beings
As I am writing this, I am currently conducting four experiments that have active participants. I’ll need a few years of documented results before these ideas can have a book of their own and then they can be expanded to work on thousands of properties:
Ant Village: Rent a Gert-sized plot with low annual rent and strict permaculture standards.
Deep roots: low lifetime rent on a Gert-sized plot.
The Permaculture Bootcamp: Learn permaculture through a lot of hard work in exchange for an Ant Village package or a Deep Roots package.
PEP: A huge list of experiences, most of which you can do at home. Document and prove your accomplishments online using your cell phone. People are looking to will their land to folks with enough experience.

SKIP books, get 'em while they're hot!!! Skills to Inherit Property
Looking through it. the first thing that struck me is that the apple is beautiful! And by comparison, the edges of the green book are pixllated and kinda fake looking....
the early bird bonus was kind of where I expected the introduction to be. Could it be a hyperlink in it's current location that directs you down to just above Thanks where it could be enumerated in full?
"What this book is about" section:
Table of contents section:
The font is different from the rest of the kickstarter text. Seems a bit fuzzy or something to my eyes/monitor.
Probably too late, but could the subchaper under 17 read better if it was something like "Prepping the soil to no longer need prepping"? Or "Prep the soil once and walk away".

Rewards:
Is it possible/smart/dumb to add the cost next to Thanks, Candy, etc? Then folks don't have to scroll back up to see the prices stepping up as they read down through the goodies?
Pledge $1000:
What if corporate trolls take advantage of this?
Pledge $25,000:
Paul will come to your site and spend two days showing you how to be awesome.

The book is done! The new kickstarter begins! And a long list of people are throwing in 31 bonus goodies (eBooks, presentations, movies, magazines, art and more) if you support the kickstarter early! Even at just $1!
Shawn and I started work on this book 15 months ago! It was originally going to be a collection of my previous writings, but it grew. And shrunk. And got polished over and over and over. And Tracy added artwork. And about 60 people reviewed the early copy and gave feedback. In the end, it is a massive community effort.
It’s ready for the final editing, layout and printing. And that’s the reason to do the kickstarter.
Check out our cool video, the table of contents, the amazing rewards, and, of course, the long list of bonus goodies you get if you support this right away!
