About

I've been a writer since age 6 when I pinned the wildly successful (in my own mind) THE DAY SNOOPY GOT MARRIED. After that I was off to the races! I've written over 10 screenplays; some of which have been optioned. Hoping one will make it to the big screen some day. After reading short stories from Derek Haas' (bad-ass, big time screenwriter) website, aptly called Popcorn Fiction, where he features short stories from writers, I decided to give it a go. I came up the idea of The Unfinished from being a sci-fi fan, but also a die-hard TCM movie fan; (watch more b&w films from the 30's and 40's than current films). Love the idea of taking a character out of one world and implanting them in another... known as "fish out of water" stories. From all the positive response from my book, I've decided to write a sequel. Please visit the website to sign up to be notified of the launch!

Description

<p><strong><em>Have you ever awoken from a vivid dream and wondered which side of waking was real?</em></strong></p><p>Burt Higgins' retirement is not going well. His children have grown, and his wife has gone off to earn a late-life degree, leaving him alone in his sprawling suburban home. With too much time on his hands, he broods on the state of the world, obsessively following the worst of cable news and the Internet. Increasingly angry at the state of affairs, he nurtures a fantasy that a dark lord from another realm has foisted these problems on humankind. If only he could transport to that world, he'd confront the demon and use the magic found there to defeat the beast and end despair forever.</p><p>On a particularly bad news day, while housebound in the midst of a snowstorm, he retreats to his study to shut out the world and immerse himself in his books. When, on a whim, he lights a candle purchased in an obscure Prague curiosity shop, a magical guide appears and offers to take him on whatever quest he chooses. When he asks to become a hero in a fantasy realm, he discovers a more complex world than he expected, and battling evil with magic turns out to be far from his greatest challenge.</p><p><strong>EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS</strong> a specualtive fantasy adventure sure not just to entertain you, but to make you consider your life, your dreams, your goals.

Are you unsure how and where to start? Hacking Kickstarter talks about the various ways you can go about launching your crowd-funding project. It includes a step by step procedure including working examples and people/enterprises that actually were successful in kick starting their projects.

She has identified readily available and cheap but powerful media technology tools to make your project successful. If you've had a failed campaign take a look at Patrice Marks book for examples on how to turn things around.
