Well, since I was slow getting the last blog up here, I’ll start this one here first.
I’m doing two things that will hopefully boost my career and are a little out of my comfort zone/league (if only slightly). The first is I’m going to a pitch for Larry Meistrich’s new company NEHST Pictures. It’s a mass pitch session held down at Rutger’s university and I’m going to pitch one of my oldest and most ready scripts. I’m driving down to Jersey and back the same day an dgoing to work the next day. Wish me luck and good stamina!
The next big thing for me is I’m readying my application for Sundance Writer’s lab. I may have mentioned this before, but now it’s getting the cover letter written just right and getting the synopsis down to two pages. Plus it’s FUCKING SUNDANCE! Inthe indie world you don’t get more prestigious. I know I have a shot, I just need to get the stuff out there and into people’s hands.
Unfortunately, yes, this pushes back the next chapter of Running the Southern Comfort back a bit, but it is worth it to me to take these opportunities when they come. we’ll see how things go!
