It should be no surprise to you that I am a foreign and indie (true indie) film buff. **I love artistic, well-made films!** That’s actually why I moved to L.A. - to sell my screenplays to quality producers, or simply produce the films on my own. Has it happened yet? Well, I’m working on it… I’ve got the connections covered; it’s being satisfied with my own material that’s the problem. I’m a wicked perfectionist. The greatest thing about being a writer is you can write at any age, looking any which way - fat, skinny, wrinkled, gray, beautiful… No one cares how old a writer is or what they look like. If you only knew how many times I have blogged with hot rollers in my hair and a facial masque on, even wearing mismatched socks in bed… So even if I finally crank out my script when I’m 60, so be it! Besides, my writing mentor (whom I thoroughly respect and admire) will kill me if I don’t complete my screenplay; so I do know this has to happen someday. But yet again, I digress. I can’t believe that I still haven’t gone to a Sundance film festival! Even when I was working in the thick of the entertainment industry and had all kinds of opportunities to go, my schedule just never permitted it. I am **DETERMINED** to make it to the 2008 Sundance film festival in January. Come heck or high water, I’m going! I have friends who have flown to the festival in snowy Park City, Utah each year and they make a whole week out of it. I hear it’s a great, good, fun time! **Screenwriters, Producers, Directors:** [Here is a page on the deadline for submissions](http://c4e.sundance.org/) to the festival. Registration opens this coming Monday, June 25th. I wish you tremendous luck and success with your film(s)! [Here is the official page](http://festival.sundance.org/) on Sundance’s 2008 festival. **Travelers:** [Here is Sundance’s informative page on lodging and other tips](http://festival.sundance.org/2007/festival/plantrip.aspx) for having a blast when you fly in for the festival. From planning your trip, to getting around the area, even to “Sundancing” on a budget, you’ll find a wealth of information on the Sundance site. **Note:** Now is a good time to start booking your travel and lodging reservations, as Park City gets **crazy** the closer it gets to festival time. Here is a link to [Sundance’s official lodging provider.](http://www.resortquest.com/portal/page?_pageid=795,1295373&_dad=portal&_schema=PORTAL&pid=111) Who can resist skiing, cozy bistros and bungalows, quality films, and hot toddies? Not me! **I say this with emphasis:** If you’re unhappy with what Hollywood has been cranking out, quit your whining and take the time to explore independent, artistic, and foreign films, and you will discover a whole new realm of entertainment. Explore your neighborhood indie and foreign film houses, and modify your NetFlix film preferences. Or dag, go see a play or a live musical for a change. Hollywood is NOT the only source of entertainment! **ENCOURAGE INDEPENDENT FILMMAKERS!** Design Downloaded from [www.vanillamist.com](http://www.vanillamist.com)
