Salesmen

Come one come all to the Kickstarter page, now launched and ready for your inspection. I have a nagging feeling I've forgotten something needed to make the whole thing sing, a feeling something like one gets when leaving for a trip worried something was left behind. Still I soldier on with Lee and Ian at my side, wondering how much more I can do to integrate my social networking approach. The next six weeks are going to be an intense process of pleading on one hand and promoting on the other, neither of which sounds particularly appealing. I am not as happy as I used to be with tooting my own horn or the horns of those nearby. But what is stepping into the fifteen minute spotlight but becoming just a kind of salesman? Buy me. - Dylan

Nerves

As the launch time approaches I am nervous. This is going to be an enormous undertaking and the fact that Lee, Ian and I are raising money now makes it something of a commitment. I understand that should this whole process work, there is no turning back from the journey. A part of me knows that whatever happens was meant to happen - that just as Ian and I happened on that fun open mic night in Kentucky and got the idea that way, so will the coincidences fall in our favor should this be what is supposed to happen. In the meantime, all I can do is work to make something of a dream, that at long last I may yet see a large-scale project come together. Here's hoping as the last minutes tick away. - Dylan
