[visionhale]

Schedule for September 5th-30th


This month Save Our Seeker and the Journey Book Campaign will be active at Dragon*Con. LegendOfTheSeeker.org forum user and long time campaign supporter Dragonfly has printed 600 pre-addressed postcards for fans at DC to write a short message in support of the show on, SaveOurSeeker.com will be paying for postage and mailing them. A huge thanks to everyone involved for this major boost to the efforts of the JBC campaign!

Also this month, Terry Goodkind has donated autographed copies of The Omen Machine, Confessor and The Law of Nines to be auctioned off for the SOS campaign. Follow the official Save Our Seeker Twitter account to see how you can get your hands on one!

And always remember...

• Your letter can simply be a brief note, so long as it is clear you want more Legend of the Seeker. ;)
• Postcards are both cheap and very effective.
• Be polite in your letters. The person who will read them didn't cancel our show, so we shouldn't treat them as if they did.
• If possible, try to argue that Legend of the Seeker would greatly benefit all parties involved in its resurrection. State that even with poor time slots, lack of promotion and erratic airing schedules, the series still managed to gain millions of dedicated followers. If given a chance, it could be one of the most popular shows currently on television!
• To request re-runs when we contact the networks. Fans in Italy, Sweden and Romania have already succeeded in getting reruns back on the air after campaigning their local stations!
• We have Terry Goodkind's support! [link]
