Here’s the latest update! I’ve been up to my eyeballs in revisions on my little memoir, “Surviving Hollywood North – Crew Confessions of an Insider.” Oh, nothing too major, but still time-consuming.

Book Progress Report #6
Hi dear readers! So, as I mentioned a couple of weeks ago in my last report, I finished writing my book. Since then I’ve rewritten chapter headings and the title itself, and did a proofreading pass through it, plus edited bits that needed it along the way. I also added some photos to the Appendix. By the way, the book is now called (drum roll):

Phew! I’m proud to report that I’ve reached 26,550 words on my book, Our Driver Has No Car: Tales From the Trenches of Hollywood North. I’m very pleased with myself, as I doubled my output over last week. Since I only write on one weekend day, I’m happy!
