A quick drop by to say that Fixed Up, the movie I co-wrote with the unparalleled Joy Borgardt(who also directed) has been accepted into the Best Shorts Competition. High fives to the entire talented team involved in this project, including the incomparable Jason Beaumont, who shot and edited the film and was overall a wonderful resource for this newbie.
The judging is later this month. Meanwhile, please enjoy this trailer!
Announcement: I’ve unlocked a new parenting level. Without my cajoling, my kids have shared and taken turns.
Sadly, it’s with the flu.
One was home from school all last week with one of those terrible, turn-of-the-century dry hacking coughs, body aches, and low fever. No medicines alleviated his symptoms. He couldn’t sleep at night because of the severity of the cough.
Big events – birthdays, first and last days of school, annual holidays and gatherings – are signposts of the singular direction of time.
