Superbacker Spotlight: Meet Ann-Marie, the Tarot Deck Oracle

Ann-Marie didn’t set out to become one of Kickstarter’s most devoted Magic & Divination backers — it just happened. One project led to another, then another, until she found herself hundreds of decks deep, following creators across the platform and instinctively knowing which ideas would spark real connection. Today, she has backed more than 300 projects, most of them in Magic & Divination. We asked her to share the insights she’s gathered along the way — for anyone preparing to launch a project in Magic & Divination, or anywhere on Kickstarter.
