Deadlines, editing, housework, meals, bills, homeschooling, one sick child, one sick cat, bad modem with subsequent loss of Internet and phone (gotta set up that new voice mail), and Bryony besides.
So where is Bryony in the production line?
* I'm feverishly working on another round of edits.
* The orignal actress for the Bryony book trailer is busy with a play this month, so the filmmaker, Stephen Tuplin, asked my seventeen year old daughter Rebekah to be Melissa; he likes her "look." So we rehearsed her script last night, which, despite good-natured heckling from two of her brothers, went fairly well. She's currently practicing swooning and swaying.
* Yesterday afternoon, we met with a make-up artist friend of web administrator Sarah Stegall. She experimented with eye and lip products on Rebekah, who then purchased a few items to fill in her supply gap.
* We also went shopping for 70's-style pajamas for Rebekah and found two. Stephen said to buy both, since it's better to have costumes choices. I will remember that today at the mansion.
* Today, I'm meeting with Pat Magosky, director of the P. Seth Magosky Museum of Victorian Life to piece together costumes for James Onohan to wear in Bryony music video (http://www.jamesonohan.com/) and for the actor playing John Simons in the book trailer.
* Also today, the USF student and I are re-recording the audio interview. This time, I hope to be better prepared (...as I watch the minutes tick by...).
* Found and sent three James Onohan song clips that sound vampirey enough for the student's audio project. None of them are James' Byrony music. We're not sharing those until they are officially released. James has created the Bryony theme song and is working on nine extra tracks. I've heard two more, and the are awesome!
* Some members of the Bryony team are patiently waiting my interview questions, since Stephen his hoping to film those videos this week, too.
* Two thousand Bryony business cards dispersed; another thousand ordered.
And, yes, despite being a little cranky, I'm still having fun!!!

I don't know what sounds worse. Me reading how the last week for you has been, or seeing you do it all.
Could not have gotten through it without your terrific support. Thank you!!!
