- Comments Off on Pan2Can The Dust Pan Garbage Can Kitchen Gadget On Kickstarter
Have you even been sweeping around the house and forgot where you put your dust pan? You look down at the pile of dirt and wonder how you’re going to sweep it up without it. Now there is a product that solves this common issue. Introducing the Pan2Can (Patent and Trademarked) the world’s first trash can/dust pan combo on Kickstarter. Simply locate your trash can, tip it over on its side, and sweep the dirt pile directly into the Pan2Can.
In addition to this blog I create product test videos, this Pan2Can gadget would be the perfect fit for my channel. The original story of this very clever idea comes from Deirdree who was a caregiver to her father for 16 years. She was also the owner of DeirdreeDsign, Inc, seasoned graphic designer turned Pan2Can product designer. Between Deirdree and their beloved cocker spaniel, Dezi – they tested and developed the product over several years. They wanted a product that could evolve and cater to many kinds of cleaning support both inside and outside the home. It was important for her to develop a solution that would help other caregivers around the world or anyone that needs extra support due to disability or mobility issues. Deirdree will actually be giving a percentage of the Pan2Can’s revenue to caregiving organizations, such as AARP Caregiver’s Support and their affiliates.
The Pan2Can measures approximately 18″ x 10″ x 9. It is engineered to be fully functional regardless of whether you are seated, standing or even laying down. The trash can/dust pan with the built in handle is compact enough to be stored anywhere. Put the Pan2Can under your office desk, workshop table, under a kitchen cabinet, or any other domestic or professional workstation. The storage options are truly endless. This product is so useful even Marie Kondo would probably be jealous.
Support On Kickstarter Today
If you are like me and this sounds like a gadget that you would use on a daily basic consider reserving a Pan2Can on Kickstater today. Visit Kickstart to support from $50 on up.
The concept and design has taken 20 years to get to this point. Tweaking the design drawings, producing prototypes, completing the patent and trademark process, now the next step is funding on Kickstarter. After the project is funded the goal will be to find the right plastics manufacturer. The plan is to use up-cycled materials including recycled plastic.
Reward Levels
The $50 level is where things get interesting. You will get one Pan2Can and one blue ink pen. At the $100 level you will get Pan2Can Gel Pen and Signed Sell Sheet. The rewards go all the way up to $5,000 with an ultimate goal of $77,000.
Conclusion
The situation I described at the beginning of this blog post I’ve been guilty of more than I’d like to admit. It just makes sense to turn your waste basket into your dust pan. It not only makes life easier I suppose it’s better for the environment to because a dust pan becomes obsolete when replaced with a 2 in 1 kitchen gadget waste basket. I wish I came up with this idea myself, but sadly I didn’t! The next best thing is to reserve my Pan2Can on Kickstarter today. The dust pan garbage can, such a wonderful idea!

- Comments Off on Hyper Epics Original Awesome Comic Books On Patreon
Unless you live under a rock you know that comic books and specifically comic book themed movies are huge right now. I just looked up the stats for ‘Avengers: Infinity War’ and it has already grossed $1,606,829,103 worldwide! That’s insane! Lets get back to the source material though, actual comic books. That’s what Tom Hoover of Hyper Epics on Patreon is creating. 100% original, exciting, action packed, better throwback comic book short stories.
Please check out Tom Hoover’s page on Patreon and give your support if you can:
https://www.patreon.com/hyperepics
Consider supporting his page or if you can’t afford a monthly donation share his link on social media. Anything helps! I think the rule of thumb should be, if you like someone’s art, do everything you can to support it. Doing what you love still requires making and living and paying the bills.
What Makes Them Unique?
What makes the “Hyper Epics” comic book series unique is that it’s a throw back to the way comic books used to be. All comics are a mere 3 pages long. All comics are free on their web site: http://www.hyperepics.com. Think of your monthly Patreon donation as a very modest subscription fee. This will help them tell bigger stories, feature industry artists, and hopefully finance print installments, may be even animated Hyper Epics short films. Fingers crossed!
Are There Any Rewards?
Yes, there are several intriguing awards for this comic book themed Patreon. $2 per month gets you a big thank you and your name in the web site credits. $5 gets you all previous plus high resolution digital copies of the stories they publish that month. $10 per month (Top level) gets you all previous plus story credits, sneak previews, and member only benefits. CashSherpa recommended the $10/month level.
Conclusion
At the end of the day, Tom and his team are completely independent without corporate sponsorship. They are telling stories from the heart, and funding all costs out of pocket. For these reasons it is nearly impossible to compete with the giants of the industry with the resources they have at hand, but they have come out swinging and telling stories that they will not. Personal I can’t stand most Marvel movies, so if you’re like me support independent comic book story tellers like Tom and donate today.
James Marie Parker III Scary Flash Fiction On Patreon

- Comments Off on James Marie Parker III Scary Flash Fiction On Patreon
I’m a huge fan of horror movies and ghost stories so when I heard about this Patreon I knew I had to share it with my audience. James Marie Parker III is creating scary flash fiction and needs your support on Patreon.
If you don’t know what flash fiction is, it’s extremely brief, typically only a few hundred words or fewer in its entirety. James Marie Parker the Third is creating this kind of fiction at 500 words and has built quite the audience. In order to continue building his audience ever further, he needs your support on his Patreon today.
Visit:
https://www.patreon.com/JamesMarieParkerTheThird
For a long time James Marie Parker III has had the desire to write, but has only half way committed. Now James has decided to go all in wanting to finally make a career out of flash fiction writing.
Scary Stories
What makes James Marie Parker III writing unique is he specialized in the scary story niche. What makes his writing even more of a golden unicorn is his scary stories incorporate humor and heartwarming elements. I think the problem with some scary movies and scary fiction is it can be exasperating and grating when too dark. I think one reason why Steven King is so popular is precisely because he incorporates human elements into his fiction. The fiction isn’t just one droning note of horror.
Where Can I Find These Scary Stories
– Reddit, Short Scary Stories sub-Reddit
– Published works, Book of No Sleep, 1 and 2
– Search for these works: Suspension of Outbound Traffic, The Empty, Once More, From The Top, and Auntie Creep’s great rendition of The Recognition He Deserved.
What Can I Expect?
From James Marie Parker III you can expect at least one story a week. They will usually be between 450 to 500 words. Anyone who pays at least 1 dollar will get to read the written story a week early before it goes onto Reddit. As he is part of the No Sleep Writer’s Guild, certain stories will be put up there for narrators to get first crack on. In addition, from time to time, he may put up various things on his Patreon. Rewards start at just $1 per month so there isn’t any excuse not to contribute.
Conclusion
Parker concludes his Patreon by saying “Remember, wanderer. If you ever need a quick moment of excitement and scares, my humble abode will always accept you. And as long as you can find me or my stories, then you are never truly lost.” Consider giving to James Marie Parker III Patreon today.
