Hi Anne!! Congrats on all of your successes! I see that you have a webseries that won an Emmy. How did you get exposure for it? Where did you post it?

I wrote several episodes of the series, which was executive produced by Hank Green, one of the Vlog brothers; and Bernie Su. There are lots of articles about how they did it, but the biggest push for the series came from the Vlog brothers already impressive following online.
