  Miss Read — Authority: 106
  Ive started this on day 3, although this was my day 1. Confusing, yes? Anyway, I went down on the Tuesday with Andrew , staying in a little vegetarian B&B about 25 minutes walk from the festival. Cheltenham was a lovely town, and it was nice to see all the red lanyards about (except for those of us who started ...

• I’m a minor celebrity

  
  Smita Jain's Weblog — Authority: 117
  I have acquired a minor celebrity status in the film circles and, I must say, it is extremely agreeable. Right after I optioned Kkrishnaa’s Konfessions for film rights, at least two other producers/directors have expressed interest in the book. And since Kkrishnaa’s Konfessions has already been optioned, they are ...

  Back from the Screenwriters Festival late last night. I have a huge amount to catch up on today, so not much time to blog, but I will do a few different blog posts on the sessions I attended - particularly those I found really useful.

  By Piers Beckley And to finish with, some thoughts on the fourth day of this years screenwriters festival . (Or conference , if you prefer.)

  The Writers' Guild of Great Britain blog — Authority: 431
  A very BBC-centric day today, with Ben Stephenson , Christine Langan and Kate Harwood all dropping in to give talks and Q&As.; Ben answered one particular question from the floor to which Ive never had a satisfactory explanation - until now. Thats: Why dont we have longer runs of UK drama series? As usual, ...

  Yesterday I looked mostly at the craft and networking aspects of a festival. But for screenwriters theres another part to this equation that novelists and poets, for the most part, dont have to worry so much about: getting hold of the money required to put your film into production.

  The Writers' Guild of Great Britain blog — Authority: 431
  The screenwriters festival is being held in a new venue this year, but despite that the red-shirted runners were able to direct people around the place without one single monster-related incident. Which is rare, as connoisseurs will know . In a way the word "festival" is a bit of a misnomer, suggesting ...

  Miss Read — Authority: 106
  I love getting new business cards. Like 82% of the population, I order mine from Moo. I use images from my own Flickr photostream for the cards - bit of an animal theme for this set.

  For the next two weeks I’ll be knee-deep in The Samuel Fuller Collection, a seven-disc set being released on October 27th by Sony Pictures, in association with Martin Scorsese’s heroic film preservation organization, The Film Foundation.
