Rite of Spring advances to second round at Austin Film Festival

I was uncertain if I wanted to attend the Austin Film Festival screenwriting conference–I kinda wanted to go, but you know, there will be people there and people are, frankly, a lot. But I advanced to the second round in the Drama category. So I’m going, people or no!

I found out the same day that that I didn’t make it to the final round for the Nicholl Fellowship. So I can look at this as two contests where I didn’t advance all the way, or I can look at it as two contests were I made it to all but the final round and that’s nothing to sneeze at–especially for my first real script. So I focusing on the positive.

Now for the important question: what am I going to wear?
