cblj_backupGood morning everyone, and welcome to Radio Free Monday!
Man, I was going to give myself next Monday off, but I'm not flying until the afternoon, so I have no excuse. :D

Angela has a book for sale! Sales of Finding Grace help her get through a rough financial time right now, and she's encouraging people to have a look.

Date: 2012-12-17 07:17 pm (UTC)Fundraiser for Salina Conlan's senior thesis film - Resistance:
http://www.kapipal.com/ad4eb7658f5247efba8d5187c05427cc
Quick little blurb:
"A gay reporter is embedded with an army unit in Iraq to cover the discharge of a gay soldier on the eve of the Don't Ask Don't Tell repeal in the short film RESISTANCE. Resistance was filmed in March of 2011. At the time of filming we were $2000 short of our needed budget. We've been trying to catch up ever since."
They need a lot of signal boosting to get their goal. Salina is a dear friend and really deserves to have this amazing little film get out there where people can see it.
Ways to give/Just for Fun:
Tumblr user a-fiendish-thingy (also my partner) is in a bit of a financial bind and wants to remind everyone about his Whovian fan-art prints for sale, and he's also offering quick sketches of your favorite character of pairing from pretty much any fandom for a donation of $5
