In support of his TV Pilot for the Kickstarter of his Write To Kill pilot, he's agreed for me to share the information from his indigogo page right here on my Blog.

Hi everyone, with the demand from many readers across my social media platforms and blog, I’ve launched this page to hopefully raise funds to be able to make this CRIME THRILLER TV Pilot episode with an AMAZING cast, which we then aim to pitch and to turn into a unique TV Drama.
I began thinking, plotting and writing the crime thriller Write To Kill, working night shifts, stacking shelves during the early morning hours at my local supermarket during lockdown, and as I’ve just returned from Cannes promoting Write To Kill!…….
Plus if you have TV industry contacts who would be interested in Write To Kill? Get in touch and be part of the team. Email below.
Writing Write To Kill, which is written in the first person, blood, (Quite literally, a story I’ll tell at a later stage), heart and soul went into every word, sentence, paragraph and chapter. I acted out most of the scenes and whilst typing, read the dialogue out loud.
The exact commitment by Micheal Gorman in America, a writer, producer and director from Kat Harvey Films, and myself went into writing the TV Pilot, which has received FANTASTIC feedback from the BBC to Hollywood, and with your help, we can turn the Write To Kill TV PILOT into reality.
Comment from a former BBC DRAMA commissioner.
“David is certainly a snappy writer, and the TV Pilot and Plot moves at a GREAT pace.”
So, let’s make the readers, cast and my dreams come true: To see WRITE TO KILL as a TV series.
This is where we need YOUR help!
Many readers around the WORLD (100’s of reviews on Amazon, Social Media and my BLOG with over ONE MILLION page views), would love to see a TV series of my words, 150K of them within 700 pages of the book, and with your extremely kind generosity, and if we do reach the target amount, then we can look forward to filming the PILOT of Write To Kill.

Risks and challenges
As with everything in life, there’s always risks and challenges, and I can assure you that I have spent a lot of time looking at all of these and are now in a very strong position to succeed, provided we reach our goal. Firstly, the payment for the actors, director and crew is the number one priority. Cost for filming equipment and transport. Food and drink will be provided to all our cast and crew. We do require a number of extras for a couple of scenes, so further mouths to feed. PR and Marketing of the project. We'll need to seek out locations, including an apartment in West Hampstead, a pub and street in Kensington, and a dilapidated warehouse in Buckinghamshire. Also, a 30 year old Volkswagen Golf and a new BLACK RANGE ROVER. Then the post production which can take time. Despite these challenges the amazing team are extremely confident in producing a top quality pilot, which we hope, like many others, to be picked up by a TV streaming company. So, if you wish to be involved in this exciting project and would like to donate for a reward, please do so and thank you in advance. Now, let’s make a THRILLER of a TV PILOT of WRITE TO KILL ???????? David P Perlmutter
