I’m in Vermont, staying at the lake house where I was born, wrestling with the last bit of animation required for my documentary, Body of Work (bodyofworkmovie.com- which Davi is hard at work on, so it may be off and on the next week)

Miranda (my sister, mirandabeverly-whittemore.com) and I are hard at work on our screenplay adaptation of “The Effects of Light”, based upon her first novel.
