Busy!

Wow, this past week has been crazy! We have been shooting "The Lady of Shallot" which is a 10-15 min. short that will be sent in to film festivals. It's my small businesses first production and I'm so excited to be learning about producing so that Starlight Studios can grow and continue to produce more films in the future!

I also made a callback for "Father in Israel" which will come to theaters early next year, so cross your fingers for me on that one!

It's so funny how life is full of pleasant surprises as well as bitter disappointments. The older I get the more I learn how to take the disappointments with a grain of salt, let it roll off my back, and focus on the positive. I'm truly learning that whatever we put our minds to, we can achieve.

One of the disappointments I've had recently was finding that a lot had been cut out of a film I was in with Jessica Lange, including my speaking part. You never know if you will end up "on the cutting room floor" in post production when they slim things down for theatrical release. Oh well. Here are some pictures of my scene. Can you believe how SHORT my hair was??? That was only 2 1/2 years ago!

Sounds like you are SO busy. I know what you mean about disappointment. I sold an article to the Ensign about a year ago. It was supposed to be published in April but wasn't (I think it got scrapped because of Pres. Hinkeley's death).....
