Happy Belated 2010!
(And possible production deal with the devil)

Thu. January 21, 2010

So, sure, late January is technically too late to wish people a happy new year, but as you know– me and my timeliness. It’s close to godliness, and that I seem to be lacking.

Been busy this year editing videos for Delectable Planet – a food and recipe site whose mission is to encourage eating lower on the food chain. I was at their headquarters in Colorado for a week, and while I worked, managed to sample/devour some 30 dishes. A week of low-fat, plant-based grub and I had more energy and less weight than when I arrived! Some of my favorites were: Chocolate Mousse, Tostadas, and Pumpkin Pie!

Aside from keeping busy working and eating, my feature script was temporarily put on hold. Up til yesterday, I’d also been hustling to put together a submission packet for a directing program. A big thank you to everyone who patiently helped me work out all the pieces: creating a reel, finding the right script, and writing a succinct narrative statement (perhaps the most difficult of the lot), and last but not least, those very kind recommendations. Keep your fingers crossed… and hopefully, I haven’t made a deal with the devil. Not only is the name of the script I submitted 666, but it cost $6.66 to ship. I’m not normally superstitious, but that has accidentally sold my soul to the devil written all over it. Wish me luck!

As an added bonus, I just found out my credit card which I charged the FedEx shipping on — I kid you not — current balance: $666.
