@DianeLetourneur (a friend of mine - though I think our respective reputations shall more likely lead people to introduce me as a friend of hers) will soon be publishing a collection of poems that she wrote. She's using a crowdfunding system for the presales.

This market will resolve accordingly to the amount of money (in euros) collected here when the presales close. (Yeah, we're French, désolé). For reference, 1€ (euro) is rougly worth 1.1 USD.

As usual, feel free to ask any question in comments 🙂

In case the amount raised exceeds the upper bound of this market, this market will resolve to its upper bound.

If no one else is taking the free mana here, then I’ll take it 🙃

@Mich thanks for a cool market!

@Mich I intentionally left it for someone else to take with a thought that if noone grabs it in ~24 hours Ill grab the rest of it and then I promptly forgot about it :D

Thank you all for trading !

@DianeLetourneur is the one to thank for this market ! 😁

The 150% target has been hit 🥳 aaaand the collect is over ! 🕛
Meaning...well I'm sure you're smart and can figure out what this means, I'll close this market when what has to be done will have been done 😉

bought Ṁ2,000 YES

@Mich 🤝

@ScipioFabius Yup that's what I mean !

(There's still a decent amount of liquidity so I may wait a few days)

I’m not saying the wall at 2000 surprises me, I’m just saying my eyes widened seeing that new distribution

@traders Not really sure which day @DianeLetourneur means by « soon », but the presales will close soon ! Now could be a good moment to refine your bets and place your orders !

The cover is out, and the crowdfunding campaign has gone both above 100% of the objective and 1k ! Can we send this to the moon ? Bets are still open...

@ScipioFabius that’s kinda what I was waiting for 😉

bought Ṁ0 YES

@DianeLetourneur the suspense about the 1k threshold is now at its climax

Does she have followers on a social media/marketing account?

Not sure I’m going to send links to all of her social media accounts without asking her, but she just created a Manifold account, now she can answer too

@DianeLetourneur

Yes I have hundreds of followers on Facebook and LinkedIn (some being shared between both)

How much do you think you'll raise?

I prefered not to influence the votes too much by betting myself, but if you ask, I think I can raise more than 1000€

Do presales close December 31st?

I actually don't know exactly when they will close. I guess the true close date will mostly be Diane's decision, based on a variety of things including how well the presales are doing and how much time has already passed. December 31st was automatically selected when I clicked on "this year" for the closing date. I think it's highly unlikely (< 5%) (you're welcome to check my calibration...if you can find it...I actually can't and would like to see it...had an A score as far as I remember) that the presales don't close during 2024.

Update : the campaign is 75-days long total and started circa. 10 days ago so it should close mid/end-october.
