Dear patrons, I have been invited to speak in January at a school for troubled teens, in Atlanta, GA (the homeland of zombie TV and zombie fiction). The publisher of the first Zombie Bible books -- 47North -- has generously agreed to ship 50 copies of "What Our Eyes Have Witnessed" (WOEHW) to the school. WOEHW, set in the Suburan ghetto in ancient Rome, is about the people society forgets, and how they strive to relearn love and hope and make new lives for themselves and change their city:<br />
<br />
"Nothing is broken that cannot be remade,<br />
Nothing is ill that cannot be healed,<br />
Nothing captive that cannot be freed.<br />
We must live lives of unstoppable hope."<br />
<br />
I hope that the story -- and my talk -- will bring hope to these teens whom society has forgotten. Some have been homeless, or abused, or incarcerated for bad choices. All are trying to turn their lives around.<br />
<br />
There are more than 50 teens at the school, and more than 50 will attend the event. If we can make the Patreon membership reach $1000 before Christmas, I will use the added funds (every dollar past the existing $800) to send "What Our Eyes Have Witnessed" to the other teens.<br />
<br />
Thank you for helping me get there!
Goal amount:
￥1,000
