Did everyone read the Clevenger Kickstarter news post?  

I'm in for $15.  Anyone else?

We've got to get this funded so he can finish writing and publish the book this short film is based on.  I want to read this damn story!

The short story "Icarus" was published somewhere.  I'm guessing that he based this off of that?  And the book evolved from the story?  I could be wrong.  I know I read a story called "Icarus" by him that was awesome.  But it was a long time ago, so I forget how I came across it.

And donated. I donated way more than I was originally intending, but I think it is for a decent cause.

Look at you big pimpin, I haven't fully checked it out yet. I took a nap and dreamed all the people in Litreactor were somehow in one place living in a big building. It was awful. Now I am going to eat.

They just hit their goal.  10 days before the dead-line.  So stoked for these guys.

I'm sure they could still use more money though, so if you were holding out for a paycheck or something, I'd still help out.

This is gonna be an awesome project.
