Our good friends and fellow Foolish Earthlings Spider and Jeanne Robinson are embarking on an incredible new venture - a short film based on their HUGO Award-winning STARDANCE trilogy.

Even niftier, Jeanne and Spider have asked me to serve as the film's director, co-writer and co-producer.

The Stardance Project aims to be unique in both form and execution - a personal zero-G experience that will speak to all yearning flatlanders, as well as those lucky and resourceful few who've actually managed to temporarily escape this gravity well.

I've known Spider and Jeanne for years (they were key contributors to our "Rocket Science" series), and I couldn't be prouder that they've invited me to team up with them, renowned space artist Ron Miller, design guru Jack Senett and composer James Raymond, to help bring their dream to fruition.

But here's the thing: They need your help too. Jeanne can fill you in far better than I so I'm going to let her explain. Please bop on over to the official project website right now, and let the Stardance begin!
