About the Show

"J.M. Nells" is a new vlog-style web series from the creators who brought you "Letters to Quentin", which has been featured on AfterEllen and OneMoreLesbian.

Jane Nells (or J.M. Nells) is a horrible playwright trying to get her play produced in NYC with the help of her long-suffering girlfriend Chloe, who supports her financially. Jane erroneously believes she's a literary genius despite all evidence to the contrary, and she will stop at nothing to achieve her dreams of being on Broadway. With her rag-tag team of outcasts she cobbles together, this arrogant but well-meaning young woman will embark on her journey of personal growth and success, documented on her video blog.

What We Need

Well, we need money, obviously -- all of it. All of the money. But we've decided to set our sights a little more realistically at $3,000. For at least that amount, we can:

• rent equipment (cameras, lights, etc)
  
• purchase props and costumes
• pay for transportation and food
• cover promotional costs

And, if we raise even MORE money, we can:

• pay the cast and crew
• rent better equipment
• purchase better props and costumes
  
• generally make the show even more excellent
  
• buy a 13 foot long party hoagie
• go to the Bahamas

The more money we raise, the better the show will be, and the more options we will have!

(also the last two are a joke. Maybe.)
