An appeal for help
Due to my illness over late March, putting me behind with my freelance writing work on the Movie Optimus Prime model kit magazine (distributed by Fanhome, DeAgostini or Altaya, depending on market), I am now staring at paying down two months back rent before early May.
If you've enjoyed the production material I've brought to you over the past four years and are able to give even the smallest amount, please visit my Gofundme link.
Alternatively, if you would prefer to subscribe to my YouTube channel, where the various storyboard animatic videos and dialogue audio reels I have showcased at the Archive originate, and help me get over the 1000 subs mark. That would be most appreciated.
