Gofundme fundraiser
I am starting a fundraiser in hopes of raising enough funds to turn the inspiration behind my novel, WITH LITTLE MEANS, into a Short Film!
The film will be partially based on my true life story. In my twenties, I was a touring musician until I became ill and had to give up on my dream. I was diagnosed with Crohn’s and Ulcerative Colitis and now live with an ostomy. I hope this film will help ease the stigma of living with a disability and inspire those going through the same struggle to always follow their dreams.
The funds will go towards producing a Short Film, which will be submitted to film festivals like TIFF and CANNES.
I am working with a fellow Canadian actor, and we are excited to work with creative Canadian indie filmmakers. Any donation would help, and I will be sure to add you to the list of thank you’s in the movie credits!
You can follow the film’s progress on my Instagram page @raimostrangis. Should production be halted, all available funds will be returned.

Hey #WritingCommunity as you write, do you focus on how many words and pages you have? Or are you just focused on your story until the end, then see where you are at. Asking for a friend

Current reads
My next manuscript is going to be a thriller. I bought an @agathachristie novel to read for inspiration. I often wonder, #WritingCommunity do you read a book while you are writing? Does it help you? #AuthorsOfTwitter #author #literaryagent #Reading #amwritingfiction
