Wow, Bridget. I'm so happy for you. Congratulations!
I'm NOT posting everything here anymore. This is a continuation of the Power Couple journey, so here it is. One of ten finalist, and I will be included in the "lookbook" they send to 500 industry people. Grand Prize will be announced April 29.
The Nicholl deadline has been extended to 5 PM Pacific Time tonight, May 3. #screenwriting #nicholl nicholl.oscars.org/home
Nancy Bilyeau is having a Facebook video book launch party on Thursday, 5-7 EST, for her new book. Peter Andrews will be a live guest, at her home in Woodstock. Anyone is invited to join in, announcement and link below -
From Nancy -
I'm having a book launch this Saturday in Woodstock, but I realize full well that the world can't come to the Catskills! To include as many friends as possible, I'm having two online events this Thursday. One is a Facebook party, organized by Amy Bruno, from 5 to 7 pm EST. I'll read a little and do an interview with fellow author Peter Andrews. I plan to be on my front porch, sharing a view of my super pathetic plants. 🙂 But I'm also taking a cue from Frank Sinatra at Vegas and I'm inviting my friends to join me! I don't want to call these lovely women my "Rat Pack," for obvious reasons, and "Brat Pack" doesn't seem fitting as some of us have grown children. But however you want to define them, four of my super talented friends with new or upcoming books will pop in too. You can see their book covers and hear a little about what's in store! I consider this a real tantalizer 🙂
My star lineup:
@Evie Hawtrey (Sophie Perinot) on 'And By Fire'
Mariah Fredericks on 'The Lindbergh Nanny'
Ellen Marie Wiseman on 'The Lost Girls of Willowbrook'
Kris Waldherr on 'Unnatural Creatures'
You are all officially invited. It's Thursday, May 12th, starting at 5 pm EST. Click here to sign up and get the reminder:
Tiny steps. Got a request for Power Couple from a manager (Daniel Vang) at 3 Arts Entertainment based on it being a Finalist in S32 Rom-Com.
