It is with joy, excitement and a wee bit of trepidation that I announce our leap into pre-production for Milkweed the Movie, based on Jerry Spinelli’s powerful young adult novel of the same name. YES!!!! This stage will get us through story-boarding, voice recording and development of our interactive teaching curriculum. Fortunately, my talented team will be diving into these crucial elements and I, Milkweed’s producer, will be working tirelessly to secure our first $50,000 of TAX-DEDUCTIBLE donations. Yes, tax-deductible. See above for how you can help us. Oh, wait – did I say $50,000? Now — thanks to our first four wonderful donors — that number is under $30,000. So are you next!? I’ll be back soon with a Milkweed update. — GAIL
