Tuesday Morning Ramblings

Mari and Me Cleaning Around the Building

My will is set on starting the farm, and one way or the other, I will make it happen.  However, the simple reality is that as an educator, I don’t make a lot of money, so my biggest hurdle is finding the capital for the initial startup.  Recently, on Good Morning America, I saw a piece about a woman who needed to raise money for a photography business.  She used a site called Indie GoGo to request donations to help her get started.

After researching the company and mulling it over and discussing it with Mari, I decided to do the same.  Below is a link to our donations page.  If you can afford to donate $5-20 and would like to see this endeavor succeed, please follow this link and donate whatever amount is comfortable for you.  You have my guarantee that your donation will come to Mari and me and will be used to purchase materials for the farm and nothing else.  If you can’t afford to donate anything at this point, you can still help.  Please, share this link with your friends and family.  Please, help me spread the word.

I don’t like asking people for money, especially friends, but in order to get this farm running, we’re gonna need materials to renovate the building and equipment to operate the hydroponic units.  Any help you can offer will be much appreciated.  Thank you for your support.

Sunday Night Ramblings

I had a blast this weekend.  As always, the Choo Choo felt like home, and seeing all my good friends was wonderful.  I don’t want to single out any one person for fear of leaving out someone, but you guys know who you are.  I also made some new friends, and for that, I’m grateful.  The picture above was taken on Saturday.  Believe it or not, we three guys had on the exact same shirt!

That’s all for tonight.  I’m exhausted and have my long day tomorrow.

Saturday Evening Ramblings

Day two of ConNooga has been pretty fun.  I had a couple of good panels and got to meet a lot of people today.  David Blalock, author of Swordbearer, stopped by to say hello, as did my buddy Joel Gates, who is a frequent commenter here on the Ramblings.  I also got to see many other people, so please forgive me if I didn’t mention you.  Overall, I’m having a great time.

I love promoting the books and being around creative people.  Next year, I hope to do many more shows.
