Metamorphosis Campaign

The Metamorphosis Campaign

 

Milkweed Editions raised $1.6M dollars in the Metamorphosis Campaign, which concluded in 2015. $1.1M was raised to transform the press for the digital era of publishing and to increase cash reserves, and $500K was raised to create the Author Advance Fund, a revolving fund dedicated solely to providing advances for authors.
