Crikey, I am beat. It's only halfway through the week and I am exhausted. I am about to unwind and catch up on some TV on Hulu. Man I love Hulu. (This blog brought to you by Hulu).
Things seem to be coming together this week like a perfect storm. All fronts are just hitting me left and right. Appointments I have to make, schedules I have to keep, life stuff in general that needs to get done. Man, when life throws it at you she really gives you the high and stinky.
I am busy, but grateful. Things are moving with Busted Jar. We have been working with someone who's helping us develop a treatment (or synopsis) to possibly pitch to Showtime. I missed a meeting tonight due to work but looking forward to seeing what came of it.
Did another scary thing this week. A friend of mine recommended some management companies to get in touch with so I used her as a referral and called them up. They asked me to send out my material so I drafted a cover letter and sent out my resume and reel. God willing, someone will take an interest.
VO is going pretty well. Had a workshop with an agent this week. I didn't feel I did my best work, but I think I'm getting there slowly but surely. I did realize that this business is quite an investment. I learned that you "can't have just talent to make it, you have to have luck. And you can't just have talent and luck, you HAVE to have a great tape." It's so important to have a real quality demo and that costs quite a bit of money. So I'm gonna continue learning and polishing and hopefully one of these days soon I'll be able to get one done.
Tomorrow is the meeting for the singles conference. Things should be solidifying and I should have a better view of what my role is.
A friend of mine from work gave me the greatest compliment yesterday. He said that whenever he looks at me I have this certain look of peace about me and that he believes that God put it there. That I am a light. I mean, wow, thanks God!
It's super exciting that you're doing all this. Have you heard of Francis Chan? He's a pastor at a church in Simi Valley and he just wrote this wicked awesome book called Forgotten God. It's about the Holy Spirit and His role in our lives. It's really helping me see what it means to live submitted to Christ and to let the Holy Spirit guide my life. I think that you would enjoy it and find it helpful to where you are right now.
