I just turned a draft of my newest book in to a new editor. That means it is a very tense time for me. Therefore I have been doing what I always do when I am tense: edit my little films. This is a video I have been working a while. I was trying to make it as a stand alone film, but now I have decided to combine it with footage I was given of me reading the piece at a benefit for Tails of Joy, a great dog rescue run by my friend Elayne Boosler. SO….here it is:
That was hilarious, Merrill. And it just built and built. Loved it!
Good luck with the new book. I’m waiting for word from my editor, too …
Thanks Ellen! Good luck with your book too!
I loved watching you hold for laughter. “Throw it now, or live a life of regret” my new mantra, thanks!
FANTASTIC!!!!!! No pressure, but please get this book out Fast!
heyyyy. you’re twittering.
Okay, I twitted. But I still am in the middle of writing a book and not in the right frame of mind to be constructing one liners for an audience of no one in particular. Writing is already such a pain in the butt. But filming and editing…now that’s different! However thank you for noticing!
Not no one… 46 people in particular, of which I am one! Hmph.
(But good luck with the book.)
You had me at Puppyboy. Still the best dog essay ever.
Please let Puppyboy review the new HBO Temple Grandin biopic.
