Thanks, lilflobowl, ms piggy and C_24! I think they only pay you craploads on the second script (at least that's what I'm hoping!) Still, it's been pretty exciting so far .... believe me, when it starts shooting, I'll let everyone know. I think I may have to throw my own premiere party (just in case it goes straight to video!!)

Lilflobowl: nice to see another CSI fan. I'm watching CSI Las Vegas as I'm typing right now!

Mistikat: that is so exciting! Do you know who is going to star in your screenplay yet?

I do know who the leading lady is but can't say yet. They haven't cast the male leads quite yet but should be soon. I'm told shooting will be in late spring, but a lot will depend on the various strike/almost strike situations in LA right now (the writers, directors, actors, etc....) in terms of people's availability re other projects. So .... until they start shooting, it's not really a go. But ... they are lining up a production team, so I am keeping my fingers crossed!!!

Thank you, everyone! It's been very exciting for me .... I am really hoping it makes it to the actual movie stage (who am I kidding - would LOVE to walk my own red carpet even though no one ever knows or cares who the writer is!) and just hope things keep moving forward. It's a romantic comedy and I think it's funny (but again, I'm biased).... will definitely update as things progress! I am hoping that when I get paid (which would be first day of shooting) that there may be a Birkin in my future to commemorate .... but .... we'll see. Until then, lots of BV to keep my attention!
