Merritt was just on
Kickstarter, funding a friend's project, when she decided to peek at the Dallasites in need of dough from the "
crowdsourced fund-raising service." She forwarded along
this most eclectic and interesting list, among 'em: "
Batman Rebuilt" co-creator
Caleb Christopher needs two grand for his Batman stop-motion LEGO sequel,
writer-director Coleman McClung is hoping to raise a mere $1,200 for a short film about a boy trying to survive the coming apocalypse, while
writer Greg Lockwood needs a whopping $10,000 to finish his Great American Novel (hey, who doesn't?). Seems plenty of locals have had success so far, including Daniel Hart, who just a few days ago
raised more than he needed to finish his record. Mazel tov.
