What We Were Looking For…

A viewer and fan of SnagFilms spoke to me yesterday and told me how moved she was about our film A Fighting Chance.

She said ”Sometimes little day-to-day things get me down and I get depressed. I watched your film and I must admit that Kyle Maynard was so positive and so on-the-go and so genuine - it was uplifting. I promise that whenever little things get me down from here on out I will flash back to the film and to Kyle’s ‘No Excuses’ mantra. Thank you.”

Isn’t that terrific?

Watch this weekend if you haven’t had a chance. Kyle is a one-of-a-kind human being. I consider him a friend and an inspiration. He is a true American hero. Thank you ESPN for helping us and supporting us with this film. Kyle is one of our great athletes and “No Excuses” should become the mantra for all of our teams!

A Fighting Chance

I have worked as a producer on a new film; called “A Fighting Chance”.

It will screen today at the Pentagon — via Rick Allen who also served as a producer on the film and is CEO of Snagfilms; and my daughter — Elle — who worked on the film as well as an associate producer.

We will then premiere “A  Fighting Chance” as part of Summerfest on Snagfilms this coming Friday. Continue reading

No Excuses

I had breakfast this morning with a remarkable young man named Kyle Maynard. Kyle was visiting DC and was helping out and speaking at Walter Reed hospital to the wounded warriors.
 
Kyle is 23 years old. He is an author, a business owner and a public speaker. Here is a link to his book called No Excuses which became a New York Times bestseller.
