I’ve been working on my comedy about love this afternoon, no it’s not a romantic comedy – because I said so. I’ve been playing around with a couple of opening scenes (set at a wake) including this one (set in the bathroom of a community centre). Trixie dramatically flings open her stall door and then […]

I am currently swathed in cashmere [vintage, it tried to snow in Vancouver last night – crazy!!], sipping chocolate mint tea [from my own garden] and researching “dark” poetry for a young adult novel I am working on called ‘TIL DEATH [working title].

This episode was my favourite on the page, a worry in the casting (boy, was I silly, because the cast additions: Eliza Faria, who plays Annie and Sebastian Kroon, who plays Courier/Zombie Stan totally rock), and took the longest to cut/tweak/colour but, through all that, I STILL think it is my all round favourite episode. […]
New story idea today…
…though I was supposed to be locking cut on SiftingRealities, Episode One today, I did take a few moments to jot down a few scenes floating around in my head. One of them kind of goes like this: He didn’t much like taking the lead, but no one else was communicating effectively. He turned to […]
