Pre-Holiday Mania

(Well shit. I wrote this blog on Friday, but after an episode with the microwave - which you can't run for more than 30seconds at a stretch or it blows the fuse - I forgot to log back in and actually POST it. So that's my excuse.)

The next few weeks are packed. Meetings, dance gigs, writing to finish, friends to see... it's all starting to pile up, and while I love ALL of it, I am looking forward to hopping on that plane and settling in for some reading, knitting, and relaxing.

Haven't heard much from my producer over the past week or two, which is somehow reassuring and worrying at the same time. He assured me that everything is on track, and to this point we have all we need - but I'm still scrambling to crank out a pilot just the same. Rachel and I have both given each other deadlines for first drafts, which is helping TREMENDOUSLY... my biggest motivation is accountability, knowing that someone is waiting to receive it. An original pilot is a tough nut to crack sometimes... you're playing "getting to know you" with the characters as much as your audience will be, and sometimes it takes awhile to really hear their individual voices.

Working on a new super seckret project with a few folks which I'm excited about, but by putting one more thing on my plate have reached writer's critical mass. Oh well - no pain, no gain! More on this as it progresses...

Someday, I'd like to go to one of my gigs, and just bust out a DDR mat...
