Hi,
My name is Isabelle and three friends and I are creating a candle business as part of an AP Microeconomics project. Our candles will be unique because we are making candles with colored, ultra bright flames. We noticed some of your ideas in your Campfire Magic section and we were wondering if we could possibly talk to you about this since we are required to submit interviews from our competition and resources. Please let me know if this would be possible as soon as you possibly can. It would be much appreciated. Thank you!

I make and sell TV shows for Truly Original in NYC.

On my recent trip to Barnes & Noble, I really enjoyed the latest Popular Science magazine titled "Hack your Life". I noticed you were credited with some of the material and immediately thought what a great Netflix show this could be.... as they are in desperate need for a big science show.

Would love to speak with you more if there is any interest on your end in developing this. Thanks.
