I finally did it.
I've finally realized a dream.
Today I submitted my film, "Calls of the Wild," to the Maryland Film Festival. Hopefully it will arrive by Friday, January 15. Even MORE hopefully, it'll be selected for the festival's program!
Let's all pray to our respective higher beings for that one!
A colleague/friend told me a story today that buoyed my hopes: she was playing my film on her computer at home. Her young adult son was intrigued by the sounds and asked her what was going on. She showed him the film—an unfinished version—and he watched it through—twice—LAUGHING the entire time!
It doesn't get any better than that. :-)
