Equinox

(Editor's Note: So busy celebrating the Equinox that we forgot to post this blog yesterday. Enjoy your belated reading!)

Only my second day here and I’m already sitting in on a marketing meeting, a very successful one at that. And today is the Equinox (equal parts night and day—sounds like a cooking recipe didn’t it?), the Day of Harvest if you will; could the day get any better? Harvey considered Equinox Day and this meeting as the “celebration of getting **** done.” After hours of collaborating and conversing through a phone (with such horrible static that you thought there were fifty people having a conversation, instead of five, regarding how we are going to finish financing “Dislecksia: The Movie,” I would have to agree with Harvey, there is definitely reason for celebrating. Everything has been planned accordingly, it’s all just a matter of doing from here on out.

In two weeks, Harvey and superhero side-kick, Aimee Santos, will be venturing out to Indiana and Maryland to visit IDA (International Dyslexic Association) branches to speak to schools in the area about the stigma of dyslexia. Harvey will also be speaking at public events to spread awareness by sharing his own life experiences as someone with dyslexia. You can find out more information on these events on “Dislecksia: the Movie”’s Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/#!/group.php?gid=12495081044&ref=ts). After Indiana and Maryland, it’s on to the mother ship, the IDA Conference in Phoenix, Arizona.

While all of that is going on, the other infamous duo, Sir Fundraiser and Mr. Marketing (otherwise known as “The New Guys”), will be reaching out to fans and dyslexic support groups to help bring “Dislecksia: The Movie” to the masses. We will also be updating Harvey’s “Dislecksia: The MOVEMENT” journey across the country by continuing to blog, as well as add pictures and videos to Harvey’s facebook page, to track his progress on spreading awareness.

The movement is just beginning.
