Making the trades . . .
Despite a slew of ridiculous meetings at the place of work, yesterday was a pretty good one for Our Man in LA. Once he turned to page 23 of the Daily Variety, that is.
That's right. Our Man in LA and his script Neighborhood Heroes both were listed in an article in yesterday's trade (the one with those Desperate Housewives on it). The screenplay took honorable mention in the UCLA Professional Screenwriting Program contest last month, and the program is finally getting the word out.
It was pretty cool. Of course, I also learned about it at 10:30 at night, which meant frantic trips to the news stand and the 7-11 to pick up a few copies. Once I got home (at about quarter till 11), then it was cool. Cool enough that I didn't even mind the stupid morning meeting in the OC today.
