FIRST: Thanks to YOU, we’ve updated our IMDb page for short film Reasons I Hate Being Single officially to pre-production! Whoo!
SECOND: We now have the very basics covered to make the movie, but of course we’re NOT making a basic movie. So: have a look at the extraordinary and unique items in our webstore. You’ll find signed play scripts from screenwriter Heather, and the one-of-a-kind storyboards leading to Heather’s first short, Monster Cat!
Thank you again to everyone tuning into the Write-a-Thon livestream this weekend. The resulting play has now been entered into the Alberta Playwriting Competition, and if it wins, the prize money will go towards the production of Reasons I Hate Being Single.
Last: Thanks also to everyone who pre-ordered from the Purdy’s Easter Bunny! Deliveries are expected the week of April 3.
LIVE NOW! message HERE to chat!
I’ve just been informed (can you tell I’m new to this?) that no one can chat with the write on the YouTube livestream without having a YouTube channel of their own!
So: Please send me character names HERE at takeabite instead!
Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow is the Write-a-Thon!
Tomorrow is the day! Starting at 6 pm, and going straight through to 6 pm on March 25, 2023, YOU can tell ME how to write something brand new!
One more important ‘rule’ – post your prompts on the YouTube chat, and donate here on the Take a Bite website. Technology is complicated.
Also: should you want to help make our film Reasons I Hate Being Single and buy Easter chocolate, tomorrow is also your last day to order.
Vroom vroom.
