In an interesting bit of sychronicity, I received news yesterday concerning a couple of Kickstarter campaigns I have been keeping an eye on: one beginning, one ending.
1. The Kickstarter campaign for Storyhack magazine issue #1 ended successfully yesterday. This is a brand new adventure fiction magazine that will serve up original action stories of any kind in any time frame. This looks interesting. The publisher is a big adventure fan and feels we need more outlets for this type of fiction. He will be accepting submissions for issue #1 very soon. I too think we can use another outlet for action stories and I have high hopes for this new magazine. Best of luck to them.
2. I have been watching carefully for the debut of the Kickstarter campaign to fund the new Brother Bones movie. Well, it kicked off yesterday with lots of neat giveaways for those participating. I kicked in a modest amount (not too modest) and am very hopeful that this project will get off the ground.
The producers have done a lot of work already, including casting and they are hoping to start filming in the fall with a premiere early next year. The movie is being filmed in Seattle (just up the road) and I hope to attend the premiere next winter.
Their financial goal is a big one and the timeline is somewhat aggressive so pass the word around to anyone interested in Pulp, New Pulp or just adventure movies. It’s looks to be a be a fun film and I am glad to be a small part of it (yes, Kickstarter contributors will appear in the credits).
So two new outlets for adventure Pulp. Things are getting interesting out there..
