One of things any writer looks forward to, is the day their work becomes available to the public. Sometimes that 'day' isn't as clearly marked on the calendar. Other times, it is, but we just fail to notice. Other times that date creeps up on us and is upon us before we know it.
I should now - it just happened to me with my animation series, Family Secrets!

"It took ten years to research and three years to produce." That's how long it took Cecil B. De Mill to make The Ten Commandments. I'm bold enough to state that Family Secrets has taken twice the amount of time to write and produce.
It took 20 years for the series to be written to the standard it is today. It is taking a further 6 years to produce. And that's where the excitement stems from. Today marks the anniversary of the release of the very first episode!
On the 7th of March, 2009, after two months of scouring voice actors, spending weeks searching the internet for everything I need, the first episode was finally let out into the world. And what a year it's been! An averaging of 100+ people visit the site per month, each episode being watched between 70 and 100 times.
To celebrate the occasion, I've decided to thank the fans by giving away 2 iTunes Gift Cards to the value of AU$50. To enter, just head over to the offical website: www.family-secrets.net or click on the banner on the right.
