It really was. Can't remember the last week I had this much good stuff happen. After many not so good weeks, it was like a cloud lifted. Thank you!

I was approached by 2 producers, found out a play I wrote was selected for a staged reading, a screenplay went to the next level in a contest, I got some great feedback on another, I got a 2nd interview for a role that sounds really fun, and a feature film I'm EP on is out for preorder on PVOD!
