It’s Wednesday so it must be Pleading Day.

I want a benefactor. There, I’ve said it. I know the idea of a benefactor seems old fashioned but I’d like to bring it back into vogue. I love writing and have had more success than I ever thought possible, but the financial demand of supporting a family while pursuing a career in the arts is nerve racking at best.

Enter the benefactor. The grant giver. The angel. The philanthropist who has more money than he or she knows what to do with, who believes in my work, and wants to support my artistic endeavors. How awesome would that be?

A boy can dream.
