Journey Book Campaign: The Fandom's Quest
-Image created by Dragonfly
--Schedule for the week of August 9th, with Updated campaign information.
"Do you realize what this fandom has achieved over the past few months?
Do you also realize that some network executives may not be aware of all the fan-driven activities and campaigns that have been going on? It's now time to show them the great length this fandom has gone to support Season 3 of 'Legend of the Seeker'.
Just one example: SaveOurSeeker.com raised over $25,000 to-date and is supported by Terry Goodkind.
This is an opportunity we cannot miss, so we drafted a template letter, which we're asking you to personalize and send via snail mail by the end of this week, August 9th.
In the letter, you should explain why you enjoy the show and that you're supporting a third season.
You should also show them what the fans have done collectively to promote the show and support S3 ---> We've done this for you and listed all the major fan initiatives.
They are really too many to fit in one page, so we picked the most visible ones for the purpose of this letter. We've included images of the fan ads and photos you can include in your letter.
You can find an updated example letter here:

>Posted by visionhale on Lots.org, Aug 11th/2010:
"Here is a list of ideas, courtesy of Laura (who has been assisting with the JBC as of late), for anyone who is in need of something fresh to write about in their letters:
* You've made new friends because of the show
* You've read the wonderful TG books because of the tv series
* You've watch the show with your family
* Compare and contract your life before you watched LotS and after. What's the difference?
* The show made a positive impact in your life because of the values it teaches
* The main characters of the show make you want to be a better person or fight for the things you value
* The show convinced you that the Nielsen ratings are bogus. LOL
* You're convinced that if the show aired on a mainstream channel during prime time, it would have 5x the number of viewers
* It's the only show worth watching on TV
* Before LotS, you wouldn't have dreamed of attending a genre convention
Pick a few that apply to you, I'm sure at least one does. "
______________________________
From Deacon on LOTS.org: "As we continue to write our letters, remember to remind ABC, as well as other networks, that "Seeker" won a 2009 Emmy Award. Most of us probably already know this, but keep reminding the networks that this is an award winning show!
The award is: Outstanding Music Composition for a Series - Original Dramatic Score Joseph LoDuca - for "Prophecy" episode "

>Journey Book Campaign: Dragon*Con Edition - Sept 5th/2010:
This last weekend, Seeker fans took DragonCon - one of the largest pop culture conventions in the world - by storm.
This week, in celebration of the LotS event fans held at Dragon*Con, the JBC has decided it's time to inform decision makers at ABC of the fandom's work and let them know just why this show deserves to be brought back!
In your letter you should focus on informing the recipients of the LotS activities at D*C, including but not limited to:
* First ever LotS Fan Table at any convention * 4000 iTunes free episodes * Coordinated LotS costume parade (tons of people in Seeker costumes: * Mord-Siths, Confessors, Darken Rahls, Jagang, Jennsen Rahl) * 2 panels * LotS party * Tear away poster campaign * "Seeker Cast" podcast live recording
And for those who want to take that extra step, you can print out pictures from the convention and mail them in along with your letters. Photos are recommended, as we all know a picture says things words cannot.

>Journey Book Campaign: Stock the Shelves - Part 2 -Sept 25th/2010
As history shows, DVD sales can be quite effective when it comes to the revival of a canceled TV series. Family Guy, Futurama, and several other shows were saved mainly due to high DVD sells, and I'm not the only one who thinks they can be helpful to our cause. ( www.tvovermind.com/abc/legend-of-the-seeker/dvd-fans-chance-save-legend-seeker/31721 )
With this in mind, the JBC supported the DVD drive a few months back with the first Stock the Shelves Week. This week, with the release of the Season 2 DVD, it is time for Stock The Shelves Week 2.
**Information**
Instead of contacting TV stations, this week you will be contacting your local Library and major retailers in your area to request that they stock the Legend of the Seeker Season 1 & 2 DVDs. Our goal is not only to drive up LotS DVD sales, showing the suits that there is profit to be made, but to widen the fanbase and build our numbers.
Unfortunately most international fan will not be able to participate in this week's JBC, so we're asking all those who can't to redo last week's JBC. Fans living in Germany and France are able to participate. Anyone else who wishes to continue with the regular JBC as well may also redo last week, but we ask that you participate this week as well since this is a very important campaign.
**Contact Information**
Since we can't provide everyone a link to their local Library's website, we ask that once this week you take the time to Google "*Your Town and State* Public Library" and find the contact information on their website. If you're lucky, you'll find email information, and/or a contact form. If not, you'll have to call them to make the request. The number should be located on the website, if not try a phonebook or look on Google. You may do the same for any major retailers located near you.
________________
**Example Blurb:
I'd like to suggest the purchase of Season 2 DVDs of "Legend of the Seeker". [I'd like to suggest the purchase of Season 1 and Season 2 DVDs of "Legend of the Seeker" - if they don't have S1]
"Legend of the Seeker" is produced by Disney-ABC and is loosely based on the best selling series "The Sword of Truth" by Terry Goodkind. Starring Craig Horner, Bridget Regan, Tabrett Bethell, Bruce Spence and Craig Parker, and filmed against the backdrop of beautiful New Zealand, the series is a high quality production as many cast & crew were part of the production of "Lord of the Rings."
'Legend of the Seeker' is an Emmy Award Winner for “Outstanding Music Composition for a TV Series” (2009), and has Emmy Nomination for “Outstanding Main Title Theme Music” (2010).
Thank you in advance for your attention.
Best regards,

Once Starz showed great interest in Legend of the Seeker, but backed out at the last moment in order to focus on the programming it already aired.
With the recent announcement that Starz will be aggressively expanding its lineup within the next 18 months, it's time for Seeker fans to strike once more!

>Starz Customer Service: 1-866-888-4010 1-720-852-7700
Call and politely request that they pick up Legend of the Seeker. If you're a Starz subscriber, assure them that if they acquired Legend of the Seeker, it would ensure your loyalty for years to come. If you aren't a subscriber, tell them (truthfully or not) that you would subscribe if they picked up LotS.
You can also compare LotS to their popular Spartacus series, also produced by Sam Raimi and Rob Tapert, but please do NOT bring up Andy Whitfield's cancer. Doing so is in bad taste, the JBC team strongly opposes such tactics.
Snail Mail contacts for the week of October 4th-9th.

>From captain_zimmer: letters addressed to them should explicitly state that:
1. If you're already a Starz subscriber, you support the acquisition of LoTS producing and broadcasting rights, solidifying your interest in their services;
2. If you live in the U.S., but are not a Starz subscriber, acquisition of said rights would make you consider their services subscription;
3. If you're an international fan, you will support the show by subscribing to the service provider that works with Starz's international broadcasting/distribution partners in airing their show.

I can't rememeber, but have we written to USA Network? (NBC Universal). It seems that they have money and they are all into the "Characters Wanted" theme. If we haven't I think we should and if we have, then I think we should put them on the JBC again.
