Rebecca's an actress in SFO (friends with R & R & A & V et al). Her campaign is here. She got a couple of big donations and the rest were 5-50.
That's a good point, actually. While I enjoy studying taiji, and I've thought about entering the teacher training program, it's not my main thing in life. (I'm actually a horrible student and I don't practice nearly enough. Though I'm always inspired after a workshop.) The reason I didn't apply for Viable Paradise (writing workshop) this year was money--tuition's $1100 next year, I'd have to pay airfare to Martha's Vineyard, and then there's room & board at around $75-100/day. So it approaches $2000 easily.
It's an application thing, so you find out in mid-late June if you got in, then tuition's due July 15. That would have to be a super fast indiegogo campaign. (If I applied, I'd have the campaign planned out and ready to go as soon as I got the news.)
Though I'm also worried about VP in that people are fueled by caffeine because they don't get enough sleep, and a) too little sleep=migraine and b) I can't have caffeine :|
And I have to have *something* in decent enough shape to submit as the application.
