THE LAST WEEK OF KICKSTARTER AND IT AIN’T OVER TILL THE FAT LADY SINGS!

It was what a fan and backer in the UK said, about that singing lady, and yesterday’s April Fool about the UN was meant as part of some fun, though it would hardly hurt! But spurred by readers, rather than giving up, a last talk and film goes up about a Kickstarter project on the newly named Light of the White Bear.

I just won’t be silenced on what happened in New York and London, among ‘friends’ and colleagues, but it is a story that needs pushing into the background, so only appears in the second part of a film. If Abrams, which still publishes Fell, for those who talk of ‘the past’, wants to challenge on libel, I have also said I would prove it, but this is hopefully about the future now. There is also a free e-edition of Fell alone, available till Monday April 7th from Amazon.com

Likes are fantastic but it really needs your active support now and you can see a talk that raises the bar of ambition by CLICKING HERE

A warm thank you both to Backers and to readers at Phoenix too.

HORROR STORIES, HUFFINGTON POSTS AND LIGHT OF THE WHITE BEAR

No one is immune to the impact of climate change, which is fuelling war, hastening natural disasters, causing the extinction of species and threatens to drag societies back into poverty, the most comprehensive study into the phenomenon has warned. “Nobody on this planet is going to be untouched by the impacts of climate change,” IPCC chairman Rajendra Pachauri told a press conference at the launch of the report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, in Yokohama, Japan. Michel Jarraud, secretary-general of the World Meteorological Organisation, said the report, the most comprehensive to date, said it showed that “now, ignorance is no longer a good excuse” for inaction to tackle the threat.

That’s the front page of the Huffington Post today and it’s clear the IPCC doesn’t tell many jokes! But the problem is either as a species we are asleep, are failing and also brow beaten under a mechanism bigger than any individual, or Doom and Gloom turns people off. Just as real footage of what happened in Nazi Germany closed eyes, while human soap operas on TV massively opened hearts and minds. People have to empathize directly, Mankind cannot stand too much reality, and the first medium for that is drama and fiction. Since an element of it is in Light of The White Bear on Kickstarter, at least you can prove a moments awareness and sad eyed solidarity by going to have a look. There are only 9 days to go.

A Chain Letter approach too would be to target just on good mate today who might enjoy a beautifully designed, signed book, an animal epic, all the other ideas at Phoenix Ark too and pledge, by pressing the Back this Project button. Perhaps only matching what you have kindly done. You can see a quick talk and the project by CLICKING HERE

Many thanks

MELTING ICE, POLAR BEAR BOOKS, TEN DAYS AND BROKEN CONNECTIONS

For Sarah, so sorry that the link to Kickstarter and Light of the White Bear wasn’t working yesterday. I hope it does now by CLICKING HERE

It really needs support now, if you want to be a reader and person waking up to connections in the world.
But if technophobes here have still got it wrong, you can instead Copy and Paste the URL into your browser https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1159695087/light-of-the-white-bear

I think if we reach just 30% today we still have a melting ice cap’s chance of doing it!!!! Whether it’s there only being two months of ice in Greenland, when there used to be five, and this has happened in our lifetimes, or supporting Ban Ki-Moon’s cry and the UN New York summit in September, or just the love of good story and many blocked projects at Phoenix Ark it would be lovely and important having you along.

Thanks so much.

TEN DAYS TO GO AND FOUR GOOD REASONS TO KICKSTART AND JOIN THE FIGHT AND THE FUN

1) Melting ice in the arctic is the most critical threat to the world at the moment and you’ll be waking up to the issue of our times and helping too. Ban Ki-Moon, UN Secretary General, has launched a crisis summit in New York in September. Shouldn’t we all stop hearing ‘told you so‘and walking about asleep ?

2) David’s work isn’t message based first but reaches toward uniting myth and science, the wonder, in rich animal fiction. Perhaps we can only understand it by understanding the amazement and struggle of life on earth, including us. The story behind Light of the White Bear is one of astonishment too.

3) There is NO WAY close friends and a New York publisher should be allowed to get away with what they did to a human being, published novels and a contracted, leading author. In the end it was the system at work in its more cynical form and a writer, fans and working conditions did not matter a damn.

4) You’ll be reopening a magic door on so much work at Phoenix Ark Press

To go to Kick Starter for Light of the White Bear and Back the Project before it melts away like the ice just CLICKING HERE

HOORAY, HURRAH, HALLOOH!

Yippee, my friend Marci B on the magic isle of Corfu pledged too, so now we can really have a party! All’s right in the world and the sun is shining again. There they are, Marci and Di,on Prospero’s Isle, as we all struggle with the bloody worrying, wonderful world and may be right down there, sometimes, but keep looking at the stars. I’ve been a hurt, lost sap and I’m sorry, but the privilege I have just touched again has been a wonderful thing.

If you would like late tickets to the party you can still see the melting ice caps (!) by Clicking Here

Thank you all.

KICKSTARTER AND THE GREAT WALK TO THE SEA!

screamcoverpdf_page001
Hello again,

well 33 brave backers of Light of The White Bear but the last race to the finishing post now, with just 12 days to go. Over a quarter, with 26%. I am going to treat it like the Ah Tic Tok, when polar bear mothers and their cubs come out of their ice dens and wander across the spring sea ice to learn how to fish and marvel. Never fear, if it fails it fails, but it would still be wonderful if we all believe in magic and story and I could hear your calls of the wild.

You can see another little talk, about a plot, and the work behind Phoenix too, while you can also join this brave band of brothers and sisters by Clicking Here

As a friend once said a Phoenix is a mythical bird that, wherever it’s found, can simply never really fail.

Thank you.
