No Drew

No Nancy Drew script. At least, no work on a screenplay that would require a lot of my time. As it turns out, Simon and Schuster (publishers of the ND books) is owned by Warner Bros., and this year WB has been trying to revamp the series. I think they've pretty much failed, as it's not the next Harry Potter or anything, but part of the deal was they supposedly had a feature film in development. Ugh, it'll probably go to some lame teen actor like Hillary Duff. I might work on the script in my spare time just for fun, but it's more important to devote my time to original stories.

Also, it's time to really decide if I'm going to be applying to grad schools this year or not. The major problem is the GREs, which are much more difficult than I'd thought. I'd hate to go through the whole process now only to find that it was a few low scores that rendered all my work useless. If I took some time off, I'd could beef up my reel with a few shorts of quality, and that'd definitely be a plus. But then again, I'd be starting school at 24 instead of 23, and time is ticking...

Oh yes, and I got a weird call today. More on that later.
