I finished something

Yes, yes I did. The Conductor's Escort (a short film) is out and being both judged and proofed as we speak. Well okay, fine, we aren't actually speaking. Mostly I am sweating and trying to drink my nice glass of Prosecco (before it warms up to 32 degrees) in celebration of the event. In truth it is Wicked's bottle, purchased and inscribed in honour of his Flash Forward victory. But since he has dropped out of the Cocoverse I felt it was time to crack the damn thing. It made a very fine pop and I managed to overflow the first glass all over the floor.

Tough, tough, victory this one. Thanks to Mina Shum for her inspirational sharing at the lunch arranged by Women in Film and Television. Thanks to Lady Z for asking the tough question that inspired the idea for the film. Thanks to Shooter for asking the tough question about why my writing career has not yet matched my talent. Thanks to the Producer for basically a whole big whack of stuff that frankly I'm too tired (7 hours of UBC writing and 3 hours of my writing) to list. In fact I think I'm too tired to pour a second glass of wine and my computer is really really hot (know how it feels) so maybe I'll just get a big glass of ice water and cover the purple velvet couch with towels and watch TV. And thanks to my Dad. It woulda been his birthday today and though I don't think he'd actually like the script. He'd of sure liked the fact that I'd written it.
