HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Of course, the New Year is always a great time for reflection... and that's exactly what I've been doing. I can't believe that when the year started, we'd just finished shooting season 1 of "Exes & Ohs" and all the footage was sitting in the editor's computer just waiting to be assembled into episodes. Now, as 2007 has come to a close, our first (and extremely well reviewed!) season has also come to a close... and my fingers are crossed that we'll soon get to bring you a season 2.
I've written so much about my experiences along the way that it would be redundant to do some sort of recap of all that happened in 2007, so I won't. Instead, I will simply say thank you.
Thank you for reading this blog. Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback, questions, and words of encouragement. I may not always be able to post - or to respond - as quickly or as often as I'd like, but every time I get an email that someone has left a comment, it makes me smile. In a business where there are often more downs than ups, this kind of support really and truly means a lot.
I had no idea when I started this blog how much it would ultimately mean to me, and how grateful I'd be that I had a record of the struggles and triumphs along the way. I recently had the opportunity to speak to a couple of screenwriting classes at the Academy of Art college, and the experience reminded me how (not so many years ago) I, too, had sat in front of "Hollywood" folks asking questions about how they get to do what they do. Back then, being a working writer/actor felt so very far away. Yet now here I am, doing just that. And it's wonderful for me to get to look back through this blog and remember this part of my journey...
Of course, I don't include everything in here - I've really just focused on those things that relate to the show - but moving forward, I'm sure I'll include other projects as well. We'll see... Hopefully, you'll continue to come along on this journey with me. And hopefully I'll continue to make it interesting for you to peek through my little window into this wacky world of Hollywood.
I'll keep you posted about a possible season 2 of "Exes & Ohs" - and on the other projects I have in the pipeline. So please keep your fingers crossed for me on all of that, and continue to check back here for updates.
In the meantime, just let me say (again): Thank you.
And may 2008 bring you all the happiness your heart can possibly hold.
