Meet Various FK Bloggers at the Cheshire Fair!

Free Keene bloggers including myself, Daryl, JJ, and Kate as well as other liberty activists from the area will be heading up the Shire Society tent at the Cheshire Fair, going on all weekend!

We’ve already had dozens of people sign the Shire Society Declaration and help themselves to all kinds of outreach material.

If you’ll be at the fair this weekend, stop by and say hello!

Fundraising for Exile

Today I am painting a neighbor’s house for some cash.  Tomorrow I’ll be weeding another neighbor’s garden.  This is how I’ve been raising money while I prepare for the “Tour” part of my Exile to kick off (Aug 18th).  It’s therapeutic putting my body to work at these tasks, though I would much rather be filming and editing videos with a liberty message.  I’m making the best of this time though, and I’m finding that making connections with neighbors and providing services for them is rewarding in a different–almost spiritual–way.

Even if I work this way every day for the next 2 weeks, I still won’t be totally prepared for Exile.  I’ll need some money for Greyhound tickets, meals, and crash-spaces, as well as the ever-important livestreaming services I’ll be using to document the journey.  Some supporters of mine have chosen to donate to help me cover these costs.  You can too!  I’m already 43% of the way to completing my goal of raising $1,000 to begin the tour.  Read more about how you can support me here.  To those who have already donated, thanks for your support!

PS If you didn’t catch the live version yesterday, I was on Freedom Feens with Michael W. Dean and Neema Vedadi. It was a riot! Enjoy it and learn more by clicking this link.

Official Press Release Goes LIVE!


Kari DePhillips of PR firm The Content Factory wrote up an official press release for Derrick J’s Victimless Crime Spree, which can be seen here.  Kari did a remarkable job at presenting the information in a scintillating and succinct way.  She was able to walk me through every step of the way and made helpful recommendations about how to stay at the front of the action.  I am extremely grateful for her very professional services and will be sure to follow her advice in the future.  For those of you who do not know Kari, she is the strikingly eloquent young beauty who graced our televisions on the likes of CNN and FOX (Video).

Previously, Ian Freeman had written up press releases about activities with which I’d been involved.  For example, he sent out e-mails to a list of news agencies regarding our arrests at the Cheshire County Superior Courthouse for “criminally trespassing” (on public property).  Those were always good and got the point across in a brief message, but I know professionalism when I see it, and this press release sets the bar high.  If anyone, activist or otherwise, is looking for a hand promoting a message or event, consider Kari from the Content Factory.  I’m glad I chose her!
