Back to New York Baby!

It's been a long while since I've posted. I am just not a "diary" sort a gal......

I am off to the Big Apple for almost 3 weeks this time! Very exciting. I am going to be helping out my friends on the doc 39 Lbs of Love, working for them to promote the tour of the film and the subject of the film, Ami. I've never met Ami, who is travelling from Israel for the tour.

It's the longest time I will spend in NYC, then the week after I will be heading out to LA for the International Documentary Association festival to help out there as well. It's all fun and good. I am sure I will be travelled-out by the end of August.

I am also working on a feature film version of the short film, Standing Room Only, which went to several festivals. It'll be centered around "Edna Jean Robinson" as in the short film, but the story will be a little different. Richard Curtin who plays Edna Jean is so talented, I just couldn't pass this up and it's so much fun to work with this type of material.

Ash is also working on E.A.T. - a great story about a kid who tries to overeat himself to death in protest against the town who won't let him play the lead role in the play, Annie. It's an evolving story and we hope to do this as our next project together by the time FAT GIRLS comes out.

Checkout Filmmaker Magazine this issue --- there is a little article in there about FAT GIRLS.

Next time I write, I will report on how things are going in my favorite city - NYC!

Peace.
