HELL’S PAVEMENT, the movie I made 2 summers ago in Uxbridge (of all wonderful places) about fostering in the UK and the flaws within that system has just won Best Film at the Beloit Film Festival – so hoooray for that!
And it was an okay day of writing today too.
I am still slightly low for some reason, a bit sad, somehow, but that’ll pass I hope. I think it’s one of those ‘life’ things where a fear of failure kicks in and it’s a hard man to deal with…doing some good work will help, though I won’t be able to judge whether what I’m writing is any good just yet (and if it’s not, there’re always rewrites in which to seek redemption!) But at least the film doing so well is a nice push in the right direction.
I also look forward to some sunshine in the coming months – making a few freckles is always good for a bod.
