This is an INCREDIBLY cool book by author J. A. Kerswell. I did up a review of it (you can read it HERE) and the good folks at  IPG Distribution gave me two copies to give away in a contest – and I have! The drawing was Friday – June 15th at midnight. The two lucky winners are Annette Sowell of North Hollywood, CA and Shannon Kinney of Queen City, TX. Congrats to you both! The prizes will be going out soon!

Hello Hello! Well there are a few more things to update this week – let’s get started. First up a sincere congratulations to Joe Ripple and the staff of Scares That Care – a national charity. This past Friday the 13th they we able to raise several thousands of dollars for people in need. Score a 10 out of 10 for this great organization!

     Speaking of Mr. Ripple, what has been going on with Timewarp Films? Well, Mitch Klein and Robert Long have been continually working on CRAWLER and are making progress. What is also very cool to see is that JEBEDIAH has a brand new trailer! I’m really looking forward to seeing a premiere for this.

     Also in the feature news is that the trailer for the next FIXER film is now live! Starring Paul R. Seiber, Alfred Guy and George Stover, this adventure focuses along the lines of the horrific world of H.P. Lovecraft. Be looking for it to hit DVD in the near future from Lee Doll Film Productions.

     A shout out to our friends over at THE AFTER MOVIE DINER for winning the prestigious 2012 TLA CULT AWARDS for best podcast! Richly deserved and our best go out to Jon Cross and company! Be sure to check out these talented folks – stop by their store and buy a coffee mug! Always something cool and zany going on at the diner.

     On the design front I’ve been busy getting merchandise together for the Smash or Trash Independent Filmmaking SHOP. We are almost done with the Don Dohler art, which will go well with the George Stover line we already carry. Stop by the shop and pick up a t-shirt, poster, or coffee mug. Remember that part of the proceeds will go towards Victim’s of Violent Crimes Organization as well as for a cure against cancer.

     Lastly, don’t forget about our current giveaway, the independent-filmed teen mystery “Little Bit of Love” that we are drawing names for the 1st of May. It received a favorable review from Joseph Henson of THE BODYCOUNT CONTINUES and will be reviewed on the AFTER MOVIE DINER podcast. Our thanks to Lee Doll Film Productions for the DVD, and I want to see you indie fans send in your name and address to rembrandt36@earthlink.net for the upcoming drawing.

     Keep supporting independent filmmaking!
