To all of you who put out a tweet nominating us for a Streamy award in the last month and a half, a HUUUUUUUUGE thank you.  We've managed to get ourselves into the thick of their awards consideration because of you.

To those of you who  haven't gotten to it yet -- wanna help give us that final push to an actual nomination?  The deadline for fan submissions is tomorrow, November 30th, giving us 31 hours to get all our fan submissions in (because really, what's life without another deadline?)

Take the 13.2 seconds (I really did time this) to make this happen for us.  Go to twitter and copy the following into a tweet:

"I'm nominating #thesteps @followTHESTEPS for #BestDramaSeries @streamys http://bit.ly/SxkfTE"

Now send it out into the Twitterverse.

You are SO DONE.

If you're feeling crazy dedicated and have another 38 seconds, let a few friends who always do anything you ask know about it.  We'd love to create a wave of nominating tweets here in this last day and a half because ... well ... winning awards feels soooooo good.

Thanks again for your time and dedication. You're the BEST.

Not sure if you've heard of them, but the Streamy Awards are a big deal in the web series world.  We're trying to get a fan-fueled nomination via Twitter, and as usual, we need YOU to help us do it.  For all of you Twitter users, here's how you could give us a hand. In our rough estimation, it will take you exactly 13.2 seconds.  Ready ... GO.

Copy the following message:

I'm nominating #TheSteps @followthesteps for #BestDramaSeries @streamys http://bit.ly/SxkfTE

Now go paste that in a tweet.

You're done.  Thank you so much ...

... unless you want to ask a whole bunch of your friends to do it, too. Got an extra minute and a half?

The more individual tweets we get (not RTs of your tweet), the better shot we have at a nom.

For all of you without a Twitter account, time to start one. This is how human beings talk to each other now.  Seriously.  That rotary phone on your bookshelf probably doesn't even work anymore, even if you plugged it into the wall jack or whatever it's called.

p.s. by the way, check out Steps EP Adam Paul's latest directorial effort ... it's a 2 1/2 minute promo spot for a cool web app, and it's a bloody SCREAM.

"Winning never sucks."  --STEPS backer Scott Dunn

You probably never heard of the Banff World Media Festival before you read those words just now, but it's this really cool conference held in the Canadian Rockies where, since 1979, industry insiders gather from all over the world, connect, and discuss the merits of various kinds televised content, the latest distribution technology, and the future of the entertainment industry.  You meet lots of people, you eat lots of free food and marvel at the surrounding scenery ... and if you're really lucky, you get your project thrust into the limelight by having it accepted into contention at the International Pilot Competition.

Not only were we a contender at this year's event, but we won. The whole enchilada.  Best Drama.  Hearing "THE STEPS" called from the stage on the afternoon of June 13th was an exhilarating and surreal experience, one neither Adam nor myself will ever forget.  Very soon after the rush of the win, when I was standing onstage having my picture taken with the award, I very clearly wished that you and every cast and crew member associated with either season of the show were all standing in a long line next to me, and that I could just pass the glass on down, so you all could check it out, hold it in your hands too, and feel the victory with us.

Because make no mistake, if YOU hadn't given us a shot, we never could brought home the hardware.

Thanks again. For everything. 

HUZZAH!
