With apologies to my editor, I'm not working on my manuscript today. When I became a writer, I dreamed about the magic moment when a producer or publisher would contact me personally and tell me they wanted to produce my play or publish my book. Well, today, that magic moment happened. I received an email from Gateway Theare in Richmond, BC. They want to produce The Forbidden Phoenix in April 2011, and they want to do it with a full orchestra and a large chorus. The production is a long way down the road, but I'm doing a happy dance in every room of my house right now. Needless to say, it's been hard to concentrate on my revisions. Guess I'll work on them over the weekend.


Congratulations Marty! I'm so happy to hear that the Phoenix will fly again in 2011. A live orchestra will be so magical!
