Hi, my name is Steve Ekstrom--I write comic books.  Currently, my webcomic, THE ARES IMPERATIVE is competing for a publication contract on ZUDA.  ZUDA is DC Comics' webcomics imprint.  If we receive enough votes by the end of the month we will be able to publish the remaining 52 pages of our 60 page story...and make money for it.

I've been a member of Red Room since the launch--and I post here frequently.  Everyone here has aspirations of writing or they are published authors of varying degrees--so ALL OF YOU understand how passionately I feel about my work.

Here's what I'm asking of you:  READ MY WEBCOMIC and VOTE FOR IT.

It's easy and it takes about 4-5 minutes.  What we need you to do is this:

1.  Read THE ARES IMPERATIVE

2.  Register your e-mail address. (Takes a minute, tops.)

3.  Vote for THE ARES IMPERATIVE

4.  Rate THE ARES IMPERATIVE (5 stars preferably lol)

5.  Add THE ARES IMPERATIVE to your favorites (a secret extra vote)

6.  Leave us a note--letting us know that you're from Red Room with a link to your page.

 Folks, thank you for your time.  We need all the support we can get--we're currently in THIRD PLACE.  I think this community is a lot of fun and there are a lot of talented people here--so please, share in my passion for my work and our creative team's artistry--and give our little webcomic a shot.  Please?

Best Wishes,

Steve Ekstrom
