So here we sit. I'm almost finished the new rewrite on my spec I optioned two weeks ago. It's set to go down to LA to be looked over by the producer down there next week. My producer up here (the nice man who optioned my script) is a calm and thoughtful individual. No crazy notes, no story roadblocks. I have to keep pinching myself to make sure I'm not dreaming.

sure the normal life keeps throwing the odd sharp jab at my head but I'm getting better at taking the shot or at the very least ducking.

Once this rewrite is handed in, I'm right on to my friend, "A's," script. A pretty tight deadline on that puppy too. The good news is it too is probably going to camera next year. not a big payday for me on it but I'm helping to grow the Canadian film market by not giving them business as usual.

So far so good. Now if the thunderstorms would only let up long enough for me to get some decent riding in.
