Hi friends,

My phone was accidentally run over by a truck — and it’s completely destroyed.

Unfortunately, between some recent personal setbacks and ongoing health issues, I wasn’t prepared for another unexpected expense like this.

I don’t like asking for help, but I really could use it right now.

As many of you know, I’ve been pouring my energy into The Hollywood Sound Museum, while also developing several writing projects (some of which I’ve begun teasing on my new Patreon). I’m also scheduled to begin an exciting new audio project later this year. Things are looking up… but losing my phone is a real setback, since it’s central to staying connected and keeping everything moving forward.

If you’re able to chip in — whether it’s a couple of dollars, or more — it would make a huge difference. Every bit helps. And if you’d prefer to contribute in another way, or “off the grid,” please just reach out.

Also, for anyone who does help, please make sure I have your preferred mailing address — I’d love to send you a personal thank you.

With appreciation and gratitude,

Steve
