Today, we caught our first HUGE break in this Kickstarter campaign when the national media started paying attention to us! That’s right, “The Advocate” ran a nice profile of our project and started sending new backers our way!<\/p>\n

Please check out the article here:\u00a0http:\/\/bit.ly\/1m4qMBc<\/a><\/p>\n

But that’s not all! Just hours after “The Advocate” picked us up, we were mentioned in\u00a0Backlot.com.<\/a><\/p>\n

We’re not afraid to admit that we’re hoping for that little online infection called VIRAL. Help us achieve that by sharing InPoetsWeTrust.com<\/a>\u00a0or one of these articles on Facebook, Twitter or your other social media sites. And if you know of any bloggers who might want in on this press action, by all means let them know about us!<\/p>\n

Did you know that we have not one but TWO actors from “American Horror Story”? Alexander Dreymon starred in this season as Luke Ramsey, but this guy – Blake Sheldon – made an appearance in a different season. Who remembers his role? In any event, it’s going to be cool to have both guys in our film.<\/p>\n

Thank you to ALL our new backers, whether you came to us from “Advocate” or “Backlot” or a friend. There are 130 of you now! Close your eyes and imagine a room crammed with 130 people. That’s a lot of support and we’re grateful. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
