Posted project update #8Announcing: the Telling Stories holiday gift!
Post CommentIt’s that time of year; when consuming mass amounts of pie is followed by mass amounts of commercials enticing us to buy many, many things.
We know that Telling Stories fans are a different breed of people. You get itchy thinking about plastic toys. You grow exhausted thinking about buying scented candles as just-in-case gifts. You’d rather be changing the world, thank you very much.
Well, you handsome, non-materialistic devil, we’ve got a way for you to both invest your holiday dollars in the local arts community and send cool holiday presents. From now until December 11, all donations of $20 and more gets you a unique Telling Stories gift – we’ll mail a personal card and a CD of our first concert (professionally produced by Colorado Public Radio’s talented Martin Skavish) to the person of your choice.
Get your holiday shopping taken care of with a clean conscience *and* help us reach our goal? Sounds like a win-win! Thanks for supporting Telling Stories!

Posted project update #5New incentive until November 7!
We have a new goal of raising $750 by our next live D Note concert on Nov. 7. Each person who donates $10 or over gets a digital recording of our own Dave Short playing Johann Sebastian Bach's “Sarabande” (4th movement) from Solo Cello Suite No. 2 in D minor, BWV 1008, recorded in the Colorado Public Radio Performance Studio.
We're proud to say that we've been able to pay our performers for the first time this season, entirely based on your micro-patronage. Help us keep our season going! Also, for those of you who missed our first show on October 3, we are hard at work on the podcast and it will be ready soon!
Cheers!
Jennie

While the recordings are certainly a welcome bonus, they do not play any role in my decision to pledge. I only wish for you guys to keep doing what you are doing and for you to share that with as many other people as possible.

Posted project update #2Thanks for turning $100 into $200!
Post CommentWowza, we've already raised $100, which, thanks to our matching donors, just magically turned into $200.
We thought we'd start offering some sneak-peeks behind the scenes of our first show -- which, by the way, is on October 3 at the D Note in Olde Town Arvada. Essayist Sharon Glassman is hard at work on her piece describing how she hired a driving instructor to help her get over her fear of driving. (She's from New York, evidently you New Yawkahs don't spend much time behind the wheel?) Instead of a driving instructor, she ended up with, in her words, "a Shamanic lesbian Native American hermaphrodite driving teacher whose traveling stories about gender identity, the trials of dating Jewish girls, the truth about guys, surviving a near-fatal car crash, and how to use your energetic force field to repel deer" helped her finally get over her fear of the highways.
Come hear her essay on Oct. 3 -- show starts at 6 p.m.; the D Note's address is 7519 Grandview Avenue. (In Colorado, for you out-of-towners.)
