Some of the recent supervillain-themed t-shirts that arrived over the past month.  I’ve amassed a pretty sizable collection, none of which I have worn.  I’ve been waiting to get a green light for a summer show so that I can show off a different villain for every day of prep, production, and post.  Unfortunately, the series I was expecting to fall into this particular category has hit a bit of a snag.  Not sure what’s up but communication has gotten a little…spotty of late.  And I know from experience what that means.

Along those same lines, the horror comic has also hit a snag.  After many months of no feedback, I received some fairly sizable notes.  I responded with some thoughts of my own – how I would address some suggestions, why I didn’t think other suggestions worked, etc.  And then…another two months of radio silence.  Finally heard back that they took exception to my respond to their input.  To be fair, I didn’t realize their notes were defacto dictation and assumed they were part of a collaborative conversation.  My bad.  In the end, however, I’m not so bothered.  To be honest, the single face-to-face I had with their team did not exactly inspire confidence.

Meanwhile, have yet one more run-thru for that pitch for action-adventure series in advance of the pre-pitch the following week.

Many a hoop still to jump through!

What do you and your partner disagree about most?

I asked Akemi and, not surprisingly, she said exactly what I was thinking: Whether Sharky gets enough treats.  She firmly believes he over-indulges while I, of course, am of the opinion that he does’t get enough.  The truth, as they say, falls somewhere in between.
