a very good day and night


arresting audiences in the city. a film summit put together by filmvic looking at audience testing, marketing, genre, all sorts of goodies actually. dave, kyra, karyn and myself joined about 196 others at this affair. really interesting and inspiring and it just felt fantastic doing something i wanted to be doing. the last speaker of the day was jane espenson - this woman has written for many of my favourite scifi/fantasy shows and is currently working with russell t. on the new series of torchwood. ahh... i swear she's stolen my writing life (had i only got my a into gear). ;)


the evening entertainment were the dry martinis and the cigarettes of doom held at the tiki bar in richmond, which just so happened to be where i was taught to balboa dance. we sipped cocktails whilst watching this vaudeville noir burlesque type show. there were some weaknesses but it was still a lot of fun. and free. a little bit of magic and also a woman climbing out of a suitcase. ooohhh aaahhh...
