John Siimpson, President of John Simpson books and films, LLC

Just a general introduction to all the new members. Stage 32 is growing so fast, it's remarkable. Trying to raise funds through loans for a low budget film with gay characters.

Good luck on the fundraising. That's the hardest and least enjoyable part of what we do. I did a short film with an LGBT theme that kinda put a twist on things. If you get a chance, take a peek at my trailer: https://vimeo.com/103304507

Thanks Steven, "ain't it the truth tho?" I'm gonna go watch what you've done right now.

John, anything is possible! If the material is good you should have no problems getting it made. We wish you tremendous success networking and meeting the right people to make your film :) we are so glad to have you in the Stage 32 community.

Hi Julie, thanks. Sometimes, coming in as a finalist in a major contest, etc, is just not enough when you write about gay people. Even Gay Marine combat vets with PTSD. I even tried to breach the gates to James Franco, but he's guarded closer then the President!
