What started as a simple idea to try to begin branding has sorta taken on a new life and is fueling me to try even harder than ever to make this happen. The support you are showing me is simply amazing. Thank you.
Several people reached out to me asking how they can support me Eight & 322. I hadn't really looked for support since this was going to be a "fill the gap" and learning period for me while I waited to be called back to the paper. Since that's likely to be much further down the road than I hoped, maybe now is the time to make something more solid happen. My goal is a printed weekly product with local stories, local columnists and a strong regional event calendar.
Yesterday I posted an opportunity to support this idea. The response has already been greater than I could have predicted. Thank you.
The money raised through the sale will help fund the creation of a prototype weekly newspaper, hopefully before the fall. This prototype will be shown to potential advertisers so they can visual what I can do for them with this idea. I have a great deal to learn about the business end of this business, but I'm hoping a slow steady approach helps me navigate speed bumps smoothly.
Thank you again for the overwhelming support you all have shown me by buying shirts, hoodies and mugs. I expected a couple folks, but I am stunned by the response and very, very appreciative.
As my new motto states: I just want to keep telling stories! Forward!
