I have discovered that NOT TURNING ON THE COMPUTER CONNECTED TO THE OUTSIDE WORLD AT ALL during the day helps me to write!! Huge discovery I know lol but there it is. Of course this doesn't mean the computer doesn't go on to check mail and then play Warcraft - all hail Burning Crusade! - after ...
Ah... 2007 feels better already - some challenges already but optimism all the way... So, 2nd jan and second post since restart - not bad at all. After reading the last post Superman (I married into the Justice League don'cha know) was all support and cheering but asked "What are you going to write, then?" ...
Well, the Nicholl-prompted requests seem to be dribbling to a stop (only 1 in the last 4 days) but I have started to receive script requests from those who requested only a logline and/or synopsis (4 this week.)Â Come January I will, at the least, have people to pester! I've also received some responses ...
I'm pleased to be able to report that I have had several queries for either a synopsis or script (for both production and as a sample) of THE SHADOWKEEPER thanks to the Nicholl result. So, all has not stalled - on the contrary I have received a few queries each day since the 15th ...

I am delighted to report that this morning I received word from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences that THE SHADOWKEEPER has made it through to the quarterfinal round of the Nicholl Fellowship! Click here for information on the Nicholl
Well, what a week! The Shadowkeeper was not a winner on the big night, prize-wise (small pout) but, by the end of the night, I had one definite lunch for this week, two requests for the script and tentative lunches (to be confirmed after they'd read the script) which is, after all the main point. ...
The next few times I write will be from Hollywood which is actually several thousand miles from where I started from (Philly) but it's the same country ... Okay, so I'm a little dizzy with excitement but who wouldn't be?! I intend to make the most I can possibly make of this opportunity and I hope ...
