  • Fully Funded!!!

    Hello Spot.Us Community Members!!!

    As you probably found out via email our story profiling Paul Ehrlich has been fully funded. I am very excited. As I've learned about Paul I could tell he is nothing short of a game-changer in his field.

    The Earth Island Institute editor has let me know that Tom's story is near completion and is going through a round of editing right now. They also sent a photographer to shoot a portrait of Paul and his wife Anne in Palo Alto. The magazine will go to the printer soon and the story will be available online or in the magazine in early June.

    Once deadlines have passed and the dust settles the editor will write a note to us all which will be put on the pitche's blog (middle column): http://spot.us/pitches/135

     Thank you again for your contributions and support. Without you - this story wouldn't be possible.
