News on The Harlot's Cup

Went to an ASACP, Actors, Screenwriters and Crew Productions, gathering Sunday and it was great! There were about 35 people there and all were very talented. It’s funny how good it is for a writer to get around other writers and people who love to entertain.

The neat thing about ASACP is the woman who organizes it -- and runs it like the CO of a company of Marines. Her name is Barbara Harrington and she’s 87 years old! She will tell you immediately that she does not look or act her age and she is right. If I live that long I can only pray that I have her energy. What a character. She’s working on a script for Burt Reynolds right now!

The Actors read the first 13 pages of my script for The Harlot’s Cup and it was quite a thrill to see the story come to life. I have high hopes for this book and if God is willing, the script too. The Actors were very encouraging and all of them said they wanted to read and see the rest of the movie. 

There were some neat people there. One guy who had a small part in Dirty Dancing! And Mister Green Thumb! He had PBS show for 13 years and could do really funny voices. And a guy came up to me and said he wanted to meet me which is funny because he was the main reason I really wanted to go this. Mr. Terry Hitchcock. He is Alphred Hitchcock’s nephew! I am a HUGE Hitchcock fan and as most of my close friends know, I watch old TCM movies almost every day. I have many of Hitchcock’s films and Love them. Terry wants to get together so I am going to invite a Hitchcock to my house and discuss MURDER!

Check back on my Facebook page in the upcoming weeks for information to be among the FIRST to get a read of The Harlot's Cup!
