Thanks Mike! and I do remember you and your avatar! The second company that asked me to write for them haven't got back with me since I sent them some sample writings. It was just yesterday, but still. |

Pia, I dare say I've neglected to congratulate you on your most recent and well-deserved successes. I enjoyed Blackout. For as simplistic a story it is, it's managed to stick in my memory for a good while. I haven't read Finders Keepers but I understand there's a pit of spikes in it. That's a winner in my book.
Big congrats! |

Hmmmm. No big money yet. Depends on how things go. I don't have big hopes for big money. In fact, I think people that write with the hopes of big money write for the wrong reason. I have a need to write and that's why I do it.

-- I meant it in a metaphorical sense than monetary since it’s all happening so fast. Of course you're dead right, good to see you've got a level head about things, your humility will serve you well. Best of luck with everything. |

I finally have something to share. This is the teaser for Blackout.
I did email them and tell them I had a problem with the guy saying "are you trying to set me up" as I think it gives too much away...
Anyway, hope you like it. I think it looks great, but my worry is the story as it was a first'ish draft and it had issues... It was a 7WC script, btw.

I’ve told you this privately. May as well say it publicly too. I think you’ve found your niche with these low budget thrillers. There’s a market for the content you provide, it’s as simple as that. You worked for it, you earned it. Congratulations! Breanne |
I second the emotion!!! It's full moon! Let's have it for new projects, Pia! Sandra |

Pia...
Looks real good so far, I'm happy for you. I wonder how many changes they made to the original script.
