Submission for this screenwriting retreat is completed and sent.

I’ve submitted 714 to CAAMFest, as well as reached out to people about distributing it online.

Emailed some collaborators about something cooking that I can’t speak about yet.

Now heading to a meeting for a short I will act in!
Just a reminder for all filmmakers - it’s the last day to submit for this screenwriters camp. A great opportunity with a wonderful team to help develop and move you towards creating your first feature.

I’m finishing my submission today!
