Filmmaking in Vegas...and Living Life

Whew....

It's been 3 weeks since I've written a blog. Man...I can tell I'm getting old. I've been working my job hard here in Vegas this last month...and putting all my time, mind and energy in this job. By the end of the day, I'm drained; and just feel like being at the apartment here and not working on anything else. So all this online stuff, and filmmaking stuff has been on hold these last few weeks.....

In fact...to be honest...this is kind of refreshing. It feels good to be living a regualar life for change. Making a living. Working a job. Making a buck. It feels good.

I really want to get a lot done while I'm here in Vegas. Really need to start marketing Mother's new STRIPPER book. I know we're sitting on a gold mine here. I've just got to find time in the evenings to spend an hour or two each night online to promote and work the book. It's online on Lulu to sell; and if people just knew about it, we would be set financially. Gotta work it....

Trying to get the early stages set for our new film festival here in Vegas too. I know an underground film festival will go over here in town. Gotta find time to work on this...

Film wise, a lot's going on. Our new hit short film FUCKIN' OLD BITCH continues to rock the fest circuit worldwide. The film played Birmingham's Sidewalk Film Festival last week; and has played over 20 festivals worldwide this year since premiering in Orlando in March. Hopefully, it'll play Sundance or Slamdance in January!

As well, my brand new short film PAYDAY LOAN is submitted to Sundance and Slamdance. Want it to premiere at one of those fests. Should know the results by Thanksgiving. And then start submitting to festivals.

Later this year, I'll be shooting our next short film THE TRICK here in Vegas; and this winter, shoot our new tv pilot here in Vegas. Lots going on.

I just need to find time and energy outside of work to start working other things. It'll come....

I love being a filmmaker.....
