An American-based, globally-available crowdshare service, Kickstarter offers independent creators the chance to fundraise from their audiences. If a work is tagged "Kickstarter", it likely has run or is currently running a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter's platform to help pay for its development costs.
Work centered on following a character through the ups and downs during a notable part of their life. There's often more of an emphasis on characterization, relationships, and a series of dramatic events than on strict adherence to conventional story structures and plotlines.
