Update #12 · May 4, 2012 · comment

Hi Everyone!

I wanted to give an update on the project, and let you know how things are going on my end. I'll be sending out monthly updates via Kickstarter. If you'd like more up to the minute information, you can check out the Facebook page, or follow me on Twitter, where I'll be posting more frequently about the project.

Since my last update, I have been working on the pre-production process. The business paperwork has been set up and filed, along with the project's bank account, purchases and travel preparations. In addition, I have been working on getting a final list of the subjects, and will soon be scheduling the shoots. Next week I will post a current list of all the people who will be featured in the book, on the website.

I'm also excited to announce one of the most recent subjects to join the project; Teresa Macbain, who was a Methodist pastor for ten years before she recently came out as an atheist. I'm very excited to have her involved. She was recently profiled on National Public Radio, which you can find here.

Again, thank you for supporting this book!

Best,

Chris
