Ahh, fudge. It's right in the middle of my film production class. Let me see if there's anything I can do. It sounds like a great workshop. Thanks!

Hi! I live in the states, but most of my current work is based in the UK or Europe. Is it okay if I sign up??

I've heard that Leah has conducted tests.
Right?

Signed up and looking forward to it!!!

I'm envisioning something with a treadmill, or an indoor half pipe???

Yep! Pretty good argument to never do a self-insert character!

I've seen chefs use them for onions, of all things.

Definitely! I'm chained to my laptop.
If I'm out and about, I'll take paper notes, and love to have a whiteboard to draw timelines on, but I always return to the PC.

Friends??? Sounds like they are out to get you!

Exactly! Who needs time to sleep, or eat...or breathe...
I'm just thankful that writing is the best therapy available.

Just a bit of work, right??
Good luck!!

My pleasure! And yes, this is a very nice place.

As a professor, I respectfully reserve the right to monologue IRL at will.
(I actually talk about just this with students, about how little people actually monologue.)
This is a great bib/bob. Thanks!

Yeah, no pressure.

Sigh.

Fantastic film!

That is brilliant! So much for sequences!

How much time do you have to talk about this? Feel free to DM if you want.

Choking, crying...both good reactions.

Every dang project is different!
