I need your help, I am asking for your contribution to our mission and vision to make Bobby’s Socks into a film. If we get the film made, we will follow through with our workbooks, and our sock company!
If you like what we are doing, contribute, if you cannot afford to contribute, tell a friend who might be able to help us.
Thank you,
Robert

Thank you for your Tweet about your project.
I’m curious about your business model and approach (and why you are fundraising to then start to package).
I’m intrigued by the subject matter – as I have dealt with many of these themes in films I’ve produced and directed.
eMail me and let me see if I can help you in a more direct way. Do you have a completed script? Outline? Have you approached any directors or talent?
Look forward to hearing from you.

Stan,
I thought you might find the pasted Kirkus Review of interest. https://www.kirkusreviews.com/book-reviews/nathaniel-sewell/bobbys-socks/
Kirkus Reviews are not known for being particularly generous, so the positive review means a great deal for the Bobby’s Socks project.
On another note, I have recently finished manuscript I think you will be quite interested in reviewing. I have not published it yet. It’s entitled, 5th&Hope. In truth, my grandparents met at the corner of 5th Street and Hope Street in downtown Los Angeles in 1926. They were students at BIOLA, and they really traveled back across the country in a Model A Ford along the just finished, Route 66.
As to the basic premise, after his estranged mother’s death, Bobby’s wife, Rebecca discovered his grandfather’s ancient diaries long since hidden away in his mother’s dank basement. The musty, rice paper thin pages open a world from when his grandparents were young, and living in downtown LA. The diaries chronicle their journey across Route 66 and back toward Kentucky. With Rebecca’s encouragement, they drove down to LA to rediscover his grandfather’s old haunts, and for some undefined reason Bobby’s drawn back toward his grandfather’s white chapel hidden away in Appalachia. With the guide from his grandfather’s diaries, they trek from LA and back across Route 66 and into Kentucky as Bobby tries to understand his journey, and rediscover his past.
