I've just booked a place at a workshop in the Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh, on "Surviving Film and Television".
"What to do with the perfect script that can’t find a buyer. How to react effectively to rejection. How to spot bad script editing and protect yourself. Simple dos and don’ts to save your sanity."
It's only £6 (4 for students!) and is on Sunday 17th June. Could be an interesting afternoon, and they still have tickets left - you can buy online.
I've been swotting away in Edinburgh Uni library most of the day. By heck, it's massive! The very nice man on reception gave me lots of tips (flippin Napier gave me the wrong card so I can only reference and not borrow books), and while it took ages to locate the things I was after it was worth the visit. I used their "special reference" section, and got to stare longingly at books which were really old and had to be rested on a special book pillow. Nice. I'll be going back again for sure - it was horribly busy today as it's coming up for exam period, so hopefully it will cool off a bit later in the month...
I'm going to the Edinburgh Beltane festival this evening on Calton Hil. Never been before, so I hope it's interesting! I'm hoping to get a few good photos, if nothing else.
