Here's more for your shits & giggles thread.

These two emails were just from yesterday...

"Hi Pia my name is Ron I would love to shoot INITIATION
Sent from my iPhone"


"Hi Pia, I'm planning to shoot ten shorts this year. I'd like you to be the writer. I want thrillers and sci-fi. Only a couple of characters and locations. 4-7 pages.
Oh, and I always play the lead myself. Keeps cost down."

I'll echo this. Nollywood is getting bigger. Fair warning though, they won't be able to pay much. In Nollywood the actors are mostly paid with room and board.

I haven't, already sent him my back account details. Apparently he has some long lost inheritance he's going to send me to fund a film. Fingers crossed.

I think Nigeria has people skeptical because of the notorious email scams, but Breanne, my SS writing hero, and myself have both had films made there. The quality of mine wasn't that great, but the people were sincere and took it seriously. I think Breanne's film went on do do well at festivals.

Good Luck!
