Local Aspiring Artist Needs Your Support!

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/167891160/das-group-issue-1-of-many

Hello,

I am a 25 year old artist from Abingdon MD. Having completed 2 years of education in the Graphic Design field, I changed my major to Computer Information Systems and got an IT Job at Johns Hopkins. After nearly 2 years of doing the same thing day after day, I realized what a huge mistake I made. Work accounts for 5 out of 7 days of the week. That means that if i kept that job i would spend 5/7 of my life just waiting for my day to end. Thats no way to live. So i took the leap. I left my secure desk job so i can find that dream job. I want that job that fulfills me. I want to wake up happy to go to work, and go to bed disappointed because i dont want to stop. And for me, that job is being an illustrator. That is my goal, and i WILL make it happen. I will be a comic book artist, and this is your chance to help that dream become reality.

Please check out my kickstarter page to get my first comic book printed, and help me get into the industry.  By backing my project you can earn various rewards. But even something as simple as $1 can be the difference between success and failure. If you are unable to pledge, then at least like my facebook page to show your support. It wont cost you a penny. 

Thanks for your time,
Mike Farruggia
