Numbers Game

The producer yesterday liked several of my ideas, but now the ideas must be approved by the execs. A very subjective process. What the producers favor the execs may reject for various whimsical criteria. ("Too many notes.") Fortunately, I brought many ideas, improving my chances of going to script. Hopefully, I'll find out by week's end.

A few things:
1. How's your nose?
2. Why is Ferris Bueller's principal asking Ghandi about Pinto's music?
3. Thanks for the shout out the other day. We had a blast and hope to do more concert like those.
4. Good luck on the powers that be and hope they can agree that you're exactly what they've been looking for but didn't know it. Hope you have just the right amount of notes.
4. Say hi to Joy from us...literally and figuratively.

1. Going in tomorrow to see the dermatologist. If all is well, I may commence free form healing, taking care to keep the nose sun blocked.

2. This I don't know.

3. Sounds like a mighty pile of fun.

4. It took them a month to read my initial stuff and get me in for a meeting. So good thoughts heading into June.

5.I shall and have. She wishes you both the very best.

How did it go with the dermatologist?

Sales is always a numbers game. But it only takes one "yes" to get things rolling.

The "too many notes" clip is a classic. A friend who does character voices for animation tells me of a job where she was hired as the voice of a dwarf. The director's note was "Can you make your dwarf taller?"

I just saw your Wikipedia posting. You've got impressive achievements and it reads great. I'm working with a well-established radio host --but there's some mystery surrounding his Wikipedia page. Love to talk with you sometime about what it was like having your page posted.

Carolyn,

I'm as healed as healed can be, though my nose will suffer discoloration for a year or so. But I have to mind myself in sunny SoCal and take care to stay sun-blocked.

Call anytime re. Wickipedia.

Hope sales are going well.
