Whoops! It's been awhile since I updated my professional website--it's tough to talk about your own accomplishments, but that's what we all need to do these days. And it's good to check in anyway; apparently I haven't just been watching
True Blood and
Work of Art.
So what's up?
-I attended the PEI Screenwriters' Bootcamp in Charlottetown. An intense but rewarding experience where I met a lot of talented people. My script is still in the early stages of development (lots of research going on), but I now know where it's going. And I'm working on two short film scripts as well.
-It's
Echo Songwriting Prize time. Last week I participated in four different juries. It's tough, draining work, but ultimately rewarding to be surrounded by so much great art/music. Look for the shortist soon.
-I unabashedly love the Queen. Who knew my not-so-secret crush would get me work? I wrote a bunch of stories (
meeting the queen;
why Haligonians should care), which got me entry into the
Lieutenant Governor's kitchen to check out the royal menu. I had premium seats for her visit as a guest panelist on
CBC Radio's Mainstreet's special royal visit broadcast, which was broadcast through the Maritimes.
