Dear friends,
I received a very nice letter today from director Steve Balderson. I know him best as the director of the movie Firecracker (which stared Faith No More singer Mike Patton.) He admired Dana's cover art, so I sent him a copy of the book just under a week ago.
His first reaction, which he shared with Dana, was apparently:
"Holy F*ck. Just opened the book. It reminds me of a quote my friend Lucinda Williams wrote on her cd: "You do not know what wars are going on where the spirit meets the bone." "
He then wrote me personally tonight and said:
"Noah - Thank you so much for the kind note and for sending me your magical book. I found it very imaginative. Because I'm so visual, it was hard to get into it at first just because of the font choice, but I really got what you were doing and I hope you are proud of it. It's hard enough in this world to do something creative and even harder to find the strength to see it through to something which can be shared with others. Thank you for sharing it with me.Hope you have a wonderful week. :)
Steve"
Thank you Steve for the encouragement!
