TELEFILM LIKES ME, IT REALLY REALLY LIKES ME

I'm in Toronto fighting the good fight -- meetings with execs and producers. I just got the very good news from home that Telefilm Canada's given me a grant to write a feature. The Writers First program pays you to write a feature, which you own. If you sell it, you give the money back. How's that for friendly?

Since no one's picked up my comedy series The Alternative, I decided it would make a fine low budget romantic comedy. And so, apparently does Telefilm.

Nice to have a bit of good news to relate to the people I'm meeting today and tomorrow.

    Do you have a link for that Writer's first program? I know CTV has a program like that, but I can't find anything on the Telefilm site.
