Super Roommates began filming on Friday the 13th of March. It was amidst a snowstorm, and there was an accident on Deerfoot, so I arrived on set after pretty much all my cast & crew, but our location still wasn't available to us until fifteen minutes after our call time so it wasn't bad. Yet. … Continue reading Production Day 1: Friday the 13th
Producing a Web Series
On Thursday November 28th, Storyhive announced which 40 web series pilots they've decided to fund. Mine was one of them. If you need to catch up, I recommend reading my post, Pitching a Web Series. I'll be honest, I actually found out my pitch had been successful the day before it was announced. I got … Continue reading Producing a Web Series
The Decadal Book
This blog started off has a way to document my daily adventures abroad in university, but it was also very much a place where I wrote about writing. It was such a part of this blog in fact that I didn't even have a category for all the posts about my book and instead I … Continue reading The Decadal Book
Lake Minnewanka
As I worked on the pitch for my web series, I realized that even though I'd put my novel writing on hold, I didn't want to give up the story entirely. It wasn't going to be as easy to pick my novel back up as it was to put down. A story has peaks and … Continue reading Lake Minnewanka
Pitching a Web Series
I haven't been posting as much lately as I should have, but that is because for the last month or so, I've been working on a web series. If you follow my reading/writing blog Precarious Reader, you may have read my post Derailed in which I mentioned that I had put aside the novel on … Continue reading Pitching a Web Series
An Acting Weekend
I've had a busy weekend. First of all, you should know I got a job. It's a part-time thing and it came in the nick of time, according to my bank account. I don't know what this means for the acting thing. At first I thought it meant I'd just have to quit acting, since … Continue reading An Acting Weekend
A Good Kind of Busy?
I was going to quit acting in November. Well, I was supposed to quit this time last year. If you remember, in 2017 I quit my job for unrelated reasons and decided that, while I was young and free of much responsibility, I would go after my dream of being an actress...for one year. After … Continue reading A Good Kind of Busy?
Writer Burnout
I didn't really consider it my resolution, but around January 1st, I got fed up with how long SC, my big bad book, was taking to finish. My—well, my resolution, to this issue was to write 500 words before bed every day so I'd finish it faster. And for the first week, with the help of … Continue reading Writer Burnout
Nearly Nine Years
When I approached the counter of the Starbucks I'm currently writing this from, the barista, Michelle, greeted me by name. This Starbucks is across the city from where I live, so this was slightly concerning. However, it's five minutes from Heritage Park where I've been going to rehearsal five times a week for the last … Continue reading Nearly Nine Years
A Writing Update
After I plotted two books beginning to end, I thought I'd write them a lot faster. Instead, I seem to be writing at the same pace as I've always written, and due to my limited time, my word count has grown at an even slower pace than it did when I wrote the first draft … Continue reading A Writing Update
