You can unsubscribe anytime, if it’s not for you. Most of the time I enjoy writing scripts and books, far and above newsletters. So I won’t be one of those every day newsletter senders.

And speaking of writing scripts, I had a fantastic time this past month adapting one of my favorite author’s novels into a screenplay. It was Christy Barritt’s novel, Home to Chestnut Grove, now titled Christmas in Chestnut Grove.

Even Socks helped–or interrupted–a lot! Depending on how you look at it.

The novel story is so charming! I also had a blast imagining quite a few of my favorite actors, many of whom I’m worked with, in the roles. Sometimes that helps my writing come to life. Their unique voices chattering away.

For those of you who are writers: Do you also do that when you draft a screenplay?

Drop me a note or a blog comment when you get a chance.
