Forced Hiatus
To the five people who actually read this blog:
Bye Bye Shadowlands is going on hiatus until the end of July. The reason: My Deadbeat Boyfriends screenplay now has an executive producer attached who wants to pitch it to the major studios. That all sounds great, except for one thing: He wants one more rewrite. Like, now.
It's a daunting task, but an offer I can't refuse. And realistically, the only way I can get it done is to remove all competition for my time. That's why I'm closing Conk Creative, sending my son to Mandarin Camp for two months and renting a room at the Holiday Inn Express in Chaska.
(I kid. I have a mortgage. I have a COBRA payment. I would never willingly go to Chaska.)
All I can realistically do is eliminate small distractions, and since writing BBS is just about my favorite thing to do, it's gotta go... mostly so I have more time to watch every Judd Apatow movie ever made.
See you in a month, by which time I should look something like this:

You're doing the smart thing... excellent use of time. The five or six folks will be here when you get back, all frenzied and frantic. (And maybe flush with cash.)
I have a new project too; will fill you in Thursday.
Congrats on the exec producer!
