Dear Erica,
Hi, my name is Brian.
My wife and I spent the last few years filming a family adventure movie set in the outdoors. We like your blog (and especially the sentimental snapshots) and we were hoping you would think that it would go well with our film that we are trying to promote on kickstarter. Kickstarter.com is a relatively new website that uses crowd-funding to help finance creative projects.
Our movie is about a mom who takes her two kids to go visit grandma in the woods. On the way home, the mother gets into a car accident and the kids are left alone in the woods. The six year old plops his baby sister into his back-pack and the two of them make their way back to Grandma’s, encountering hobos, wolves, and raging rivers along the way. Its kind of like the movie ‘Milo and Otis’, but with young kids instead of animals.
The movie is geared toward parents like you. Parents who aren’t afraid to let their kids get dirty in the great outdoors and climb over big giant rocks. If this interests you in the slightest, you can check out more information on our project and see our trailer at:

Thanks for your time and I hope you enjoy the trailer to our film.
Sincerely,
Brian and Ann-Marie
Hello! I am an outdoor writer working on a book entitled Girl Gone Wild- On Being a Woman in the Wilderness. I am running a kickstarter to fund the promotion, development, and publication of the book and am wondering if you would be interested in helping me promote, either as a guest blogger, or by posting a link to the project. You can view the project and find links to my writing and website here:

Thanks! Ruby
