… tomorrow for the Rogue. The 22nd edition of the Horizon Awards will be held at the council chambers of Fresno City Hall. (Yeah, it does look like a Klingon battle cruiser, doesn’t it?) A pretty big affair and I’m supposed to give a short speech and all. (Lordy, lordy… oy vey!) OK, this is all pretty surreal to me. (I’m convinced this is going to be like traipsing through a Salvador Dali painting.) Yes, …
… queasy this morning. I’m trying to decide if it was the scotch or the chicken quesedillas consumed last evening… or a combination of the two. Plus there is the cheese factor to consider since I am lactose intolerant. Yeah, thats a bitch since I love cheese. Oh well. Queasy is better than being doubled over in pain. The evening was a pleasant one. Great company and fun conversation. It has been a while since …
Completed Act 1. I think I’ll be able to finish Act 2 by tomorrow.
… last night. So, I’m trying to make it up tonight. The Virginia Tech situation is very sad. If you haven’t been watching America at a Crossroads on PBS… you should.
… was all I did yesterday. I was reworking a portion of the script that involved oodles of them. From song lyrics to chants to raps. By the time I hit the sack last night I was exhausted. Though I was also quite happy that I had gotten as far as I did with the script. I’m hoping to be finished with the rewrite and rework by sometime Monday. Then a couple of scan-throughs just …
… to a brand new song and completely overhauling an old one. It was exhilarating… especially working on the new one. It’s been a while since I’ve written lyrics and there is also the challenge to keep the original charm of and unity of the piece as a whole. Don’t really want the new song to stick out like a… new song, if you know what I mean. The overhaul on the old one was …
… the current rewrite of Frogway in a week and a half. Other than outlining the changes that I want to be made I have not begun to work on it as yet. Though if the outlining that I’ve done works the way I want it to… it may be completed in 5 days. This is planned as a complete slash and burn rework. Of course, all of this is exasperated by the fact that …
… Frogway, that is. Skyped with my friend Mike last evening and he filled me in on the details of the meeting between him and the producers of the show. Of course, all of this is dependent on the rewrites. When the project was first proposed I agreed to it on condition that we both rework the show before it was to be remounted. Afterall, it has been 27 years since it was first produced …
… from last Sunday, didn’t I? Someone was kind enough to scan it for me… since it hasn’t been posted online. This was the Central Valley’s People’s Choice Award for Hidden Gem. Cool, huh? (Go ahead, click it for a bigger readable version.) Bet you are sick of hearing/reading about the Rogue by now. Though there has seemed to be a never-ending stream of related stories in the local press about it of late. (Yeah …
