Hola Amigo!
Allan Weisbecker here, I don’t know if you’ve heard of me or not – I
wrote a pretty popular surfing memoir called In Search of Captain Zero a
while back about a road trip I took to Costa Rica to find my buddy that
went missing, and my surf adventures along the way. I also wrote 2 other
memoirs, and am currently working on a filmed memoir called Water Time;
Surf Travel Diary of a MadMan. You can learn more about this one by
visiting my website banditobooks.com.
I’m back down south in Mexico now, will be here until late May, working
on Water Time; Surf Travel diary of a MadMan. Still have a few months to
go to finish. The surf here has been firing for over 2 weeks straight.
Heaven.
I’m trying to raise finishing money, partially via the website called
Kickstarter.com. The way it works is you set a goal of how much money
you need and folks contribute (it¹s via Amazon, actually). I set my goal
at $10k. Problem is if you don¹t reach the goal you don¹t get any of the
money pledged.
You have to do it in a specified time period. I’ve got 5 days left and
I’m short on pledges. As of right now I need about $2k more pledged.
I’m hoping you can help get me close (if I get close I can have
friends that can throw in the rest and I reimburse them).
I’d love it if you’d plug me on your website someplace. Maybe you have
a news section or a community section? Post a link maybe?
If you haven’t seen the first 7 minutes of the film, you can see it at
banditobooks.com
A plug like this might help a lot.
Here is a quick blurb I put together that you can use if you want:
‘Allan Weisbecker has been working on his filmed memoir Water Time;
Surf Travel Diary of a MadMan since the fall of 2007 and is hoping for
contributions to help with finishing money – legal expenses, music
rights, etc. – via Amazon’s Kickstarter.com website. You can go to
Banditobooks.com to learn more and see the first 7 minutes of the
film.’
Thanks, amigo.
Allan
