Folks, as many of you already know I've co-written (with Anthony Neil Smith) a feature screenplay called PULP BOY, a funny romp about washed up sci-fi writer Emerson LaSalle. Producer/director Jake Dickey has come close to funding a few times, but it just never worked out. And in this economy you have to have some brass ones to even ask for money when there's just none to be had out there. Now Jake has decided to give kickstarter a try. He's got a lot of people working for love on this project and others working for reduced rates, and this has allowed him to cut the budget to the bone ... but it's still an uphill battle. If you have some cash to spare (and how much would you pay at the theater or a movie anyway?) then I hope you'll click THIS LINK to kickstarter and support all of Jake's hard work in planning and casting this film. Almost as important ... spread the word. Stick this link anywhere you think people who care about this sort of thing might see it. And remember, Kickstarter is an all-or-nothing sort of deal, so if the project doesn't make it, you won't be charged a dime.
Big fat bags of cash are welcome, but so is a quick five bucks. Thanks.

Cleared the room with this 1 didn't you Gish???.....Terry Pratchett said something along the lines of "the best way to make sure nobody sees you is to look like you are going to ask them for money"
Seriously I hope your project makes it and that you end up happy with the final results....
Happy Paddy's day to ya Boyo!

Crabby,
Well, my producer is facing an uphill battle, so I'm just trying to do my part.
Oh I hear you and I seriously wish you luck.. I was just joking because you always get a comments and then boom silence. I wish I could help out on this one but family issues make that a non-starter right now..
Cheers
Crabby,
I was actually surprise to get zero comments on the AYA post. Some great pencil work for an upcoming creator owned project.
