Extremely Exciting News That I Don’t Have Time To Write About

Busy, busy, busy. 

Putting the finishing touches on the new book (actually have gotten to the end, now need to polish up the loose bits - wait, that sounds weird).  Reading at a high school (Gladstone Secondary in Vancouver - great students, wonderful librarian, a ton of fun), and Stanley Cup Playoffs - Vancouver’s out shut eye  Penguins still in grin

So, here’s the short version:  Paramount Pictures has optioned Swim the Fly and has hired me to write the screenplay!  Hooray!!! 

Now, back to work.

Oh, wait, here’s a creepy video for your viewing pleasure.  I can’t seem to embed it so here’s a link:

Congrats.
See if you can sneak in the line,“This is an ‘81 Honda. How dare you!” and you can make it the running gag in all of your screenplays.

Thanks for the congrats, David!

Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your take) that particular line was not written by me.  It’s how things go in the movie world.  But glad you saw the film smile
