The Secret IS… There is NO Secret

It has been about a month since I’ve checked in here on WordPress but we’ve been somewhat busy in life and over on Twitter and Facebook.

We’re still submitting our film to festivals and have yet to hear back on a few we’re really eager to enter. In the meantime, I’m also trying to look more venues to screen our film.

During my internet search I came across this article, “How I Raised $150,000 on Kickstarter: The Secret is There is NO ‘Secret’.” It’s a good, honest read.
