Vatican Spy Fundraiser

About the campaign
A freedom project to bring a heroic and inspirational story to print and film.
I need your help to be able to totally dedicate myself for 12 to 18 months to complete the project. That period involves research, access to archives in Salzburg, and the Vatican Secret Library, the interview of former political prisoners (now in their 80s/90s), and then write the historical novel, secure a major publisher, and complete an adapted screenplay that is then pitched to studios, producers, and directors.
What I can offer my patrons:
-- All my financial donors who contribute $50, or more, will receive a credit in the book.
-- Donors who contribute $200, or more, will also receive a film credit should we reach production.
-- A separate appeal for film investors will come later as I push to produce a motion picture, or an 8 part TV/VOD series.
With a family, putting everything aside to accomplish this mission is not easy as this crowd source project will be my sole source of income. However, I place my trust in the Lord and his prompting to bring this story to light.
All money raised will be applied directly to this work. If you can give even a little monthly that would be a big help.
I am totally committed regardless of whether the goal is reached or not. A refinance of the family home is an option if this crowd-source funding, and application for research grants, is insufficient.
