    where i’ve been.

    I’ve been emailing this morning with Heather and Jessica about how I’ve always wanted to change the letters on the HOLLYWOOD sign to read HURRYUPANDWAIT.

  • TV Alert — I wrote it!

    One more chance to see my name on your television screens: Hot Properties: Grrr… Ava wonders if her happy marriage is in trouble and feels a little guilty when sparks fly between her and a client named Alec (Harry Hamlin) who, like her, has a much younger partner.
