3 Day Novel Contest
Sad news. I just learned that Book TV is moving the Edmonton operations to Toronto, and letting go of the producer of the 3 Day Novel TV series. After all that work, the series will probably sit on a shelf. The unofficial word is a Toronto producer will finish out the series and the executives will make their decision about the fate of the series after that.
Ack. I'm reminded of why I stay away from working in television. My heart breaks for the wonderful original producer, Tate Young, who busted his butt for the series. I'm sad that he couldn't see the second season all the way to the end, and I wish him all the best wherever he goes.

That's too bad. I always liked what it said about Edmonton as a 'writing city' to have it based here. I think that it was something that felt right in this smaller city, unlike in the big 'ol T.O. where it might get lost. Sad, too, for the producer who loses his work to the far East...
