Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime. ~Mark Twain

Nothing Terribly Exciting

Not a lot to report right now but thought I'd post up. The screenwriters group (which I'm a part of) has a fairly open schedule right now so it's been a slow week on our end. I turned in a 8 page screenplay today for consideration for my Hollywood Production Workshop class. Everyone in the program turns one in (about 50) and they choose 5 of them to make into short films. Then we spend the rest of the semester working on them in teams of 10. I am happy to have it turned in and I'm satisfied with my story. I kind of have my heart set on this so I'll be disappointed if they don't pick mine. We find out who made it next week so update coming then.

Other than that, the wildfires are no where near my part of town in case anyone is wondering. You can see them sometimes, and the smoke makes for some mean have sometimes, but we're safe for now. The big concern is there are some big fires right now and fire season isn't supposed to reach it's peak until October. Yikes.

We're going to the Hollywood Bowl on Saturday as a big class outing. John Williams is conducting the LA Philharmonic. They're crappy seats but it should be still be pretty cool just being there. Throw in John Williams conducting his own music and I'm pretty excited.

Anyways, feel free to send any questions you would like addressed in my blog. I'm kind of free forming it right now.

Til next time!
