So this might be a bit unusual, but my friend Paige is raising money to help her to produce her movie, True After Dark. She calls it a love letter to Los Angeles and a cozy callback to Sleepless in Seattle. You can read all about it here: True After Dark https://seedandspark.com/fund/true-after-dark

I think Paige is on the cusp of being a real creative force in Hollywood, and I'm getting in on the ground floor. Obviously there are bigger emergencies in the world, but funding a young woman's dream is pretty good. Don't feel obliged even to click through unless this strikes your fancy.
