I want to tell you about a website where you can create invitations, greeting cards, birthday cards, flyers and so much more. This website is easy to use and very customizable. It lets you create a guest list from your contacts and RSVP which I found very cool. You can choose a card or invitation or announcement and fill it in with your own stuff. It also lets you save your favorite cards for next time use. When putting in the address of the place you don’t even need to fill it in you can find it just by name and the address is automatically added to your invite.
This is a promising website for events or company parties, it creates an event page also so you can keep in touch with your guests and they can leave comments too. Also if needed you can write a personal message to all your guest if need be. This cuts half the work time on sending out invitations, buying stamps and envelopes and the hassle of losing RSVP via snailmail. All you need is their email address to send them your card or invite. This is a paid service and currently you get $10.00 worth of coins free.
So if you got an upcoming event or graduation party to do. I invite you to test it for yourself just go to https://www.paperlesspost.com/

TBS announced the renewal of the Simon Rich-created anthology series Miracle Workers on Wednesday, starring Daniel Radcliffe and Steve Buscemi. The pair, who respectively played a low-level angel and God in the comedy’s freshman season, will be back alongside costars Geraldine Viswanathan and Karan Soni to tell an entirely new story.
In season 2, the Lorne Michaels-produced series will focus on a group of villagers during the Dark Ages who are trying to stay positive in a time of inequality and fake news. It’s a medieval tale about family, friendship, and trying not to get murdered.
“Simon’s brain is very inventive, and he’s very excited about the next chapter,” Soni said during the show’s presentation at the Television Critics Association Winter Press Tour earlier this year.
“There’s this whole world he’s created for all of us to play new parts,” he continued. “We’ll be paired up with actors that we didn’t work with enough in the first one. We all get along so well, so we’re excited to do something together again that’ll be totally different. It’s rare as an actor to get that type of opportunity where we just reset each year.”
Rich added, “This is one of the reasons we hired such a versatile cast who have so many different moves and so many different strengths. We are trying to do this sort of repertory company where people can play wildly different characters.”
Radcliffe fell in love with Rich’s books years ago and was determined to work with the Man Seeking Woman creator.
“My girlfriend gave me a copy of What in God’s Name, and I loved it,” the Harry Potter star said at TCA. “Then, I read more of his short stories and thought about how amazing he is. I knew I had to meet him. When I did, I told him that if he ever did anything with the book that I’d love to work with him on it in any capacity. About a year later, he phoned me about making it into a TV series and I told him to count me all in. And if we get another season, I can’t wait to see what he comes up with for us.”
TBS reports that Miracle Workers reached an audience of 26.4 million viewers across all its platforms. No premiere date for the show’s sophomore season has been announced as of yet.

Radcliffe appears alongside Australian actor Daniel Webber (“The Dirt”). The pair play freedom fighters Tim Jenkin and Stephen Lee, who were jailed in 1978 for being involved in covert anti-apartheid operations. Ian Hart (“God’s Own Country”), Mark Leonard Winter (“Cleverman”) and Nathan Page (“Underbelly”) also star.
Based on a true story, the film follows Jenkin and Lee – joined by a fellow inmate – as they decide to escape from prison. After months of planning, and in a race against time as the authorities strengthen the prison’s security, they craft wooden keys for the numerous steel doors between them and freedom. Directed by Francis Annan, it is based on Jenkin’s autobiography “Inside Out: Escape From Pretoria Prison.” Annan co-wrote the screenplay with LH Adam.
Momentum will release the film theatrically in the U.S. and Canada. The deal was negotiated by John Fremes and Michelle Krumm on behalf of Arclight, and Dylan Wilcox for Momentum Pictures, which is an eOne company.
“We are excited to partner with Arclight again on this incredible true story,” said Ian Goggins, senior VP, content, at Entertainment One. “We are looking forward to working with the Arclight team, the filmmakers, and of course, Daniel Radcliffe, once more to bring ‘Escape From Pretoria’ to audiences.”
“’Escape from Pretoria’ is an extraordinary and timely story that deserves to be shared with audiences. We are thrilled to be partnering with the Momentum team once again who previously released our film ‘Jungle,’ which also starred Daniel Radcliffe,” said Arclight chairman Gary Hamilton.
