Three Cheers to Jeffrey Goodman's Success

Let's give a round of applause to Jeffrey Goodman for his first weekend's success in self-releasing The Last Lullaby. Here is a link to his blog at MovieMaker where you can read about it.

I love it when people take the bull by the horns and contribute to their own success! Keep it up Jeffrey! Here's to much more success with Lullaby.
