We've had a flurry of festival acceptances this week for Bumsicle...and we learned that we've been nominated for Best Dramatic Short by the Bare Bones International Film Festival. The attention we're getting from all of these festivals is a real thrill for me and the entire cast & crew.

…and, we hope, more to come!
Wow, I really hope your short wins some awards! I read the story it was based on and it’s first class.
It seems that when it comes to making really clever mysteries, you are firing on all cylinders. I remember all the great Perry Mason TV movies and it seems you’d be a natural at the 2-hour, 7-act TV mystery movie genre. I can’t think of any mystery writer who’d do better at it.
Anyway, if you do decide to write a 2-hour TV movie, I wonder if you’d be able to get it shot in Owensboro this year? Usually if a person thinks they can, they can.
