The Minearverse 4: Support Group for Clumsy People
[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

Grrr. Assholes.
Kristen, based on Matt's good example, I intend to continue to think that being a Disney finalist is itself a huge big deal and to send out -ma directed at eventual fruitful results of your good-conversation good-contacts interview. However, if a couple of years from now the actual winner's show or film makes it out into the world and turns out to be dull or insipid or a blight on the landscape, I may not be able to stop myself from hating the Disney folks just a little.
But, yeah. One way or another, there'll be a Kristenverse.
That's fair. Kristen, I think you've done good work, I'm glad you got as far as you did, and I wish you wonderful things at the new year.
In unrelated news: I had a Joss/Tim nightmare last night. I was invited to some sort of party to celebrate a new show, but I got there and nobody knew me. I kept trying to leave, but I'd forgotten my shoes, my needlework (Joss handed out cross-stitch kits; who knew), and then my bicycle. Everybody wondered why I kept coming back to the party.
My subconscious can just SHUT UP NOW.
I think I was at that party, Betsy.
I had the honor of reading Kristen's script, and yeah, she should by all rights be on staff at Without a Trace or Cold Case.
What sort of cross stitching did Joss give you? Mine was some sort of geometric hanger with lots of satin stitch. Jane Espenson was asking disdainfully if I'd ever done a hanger before.
Kristen, congratulations on all you've acheived so far. I'm sorry it didn't go any further. Note the pointed choice of pronoun in the previous sentence. t anvil That is to say, note I said it, (as in this particular opportunity) not you. There's no stopping you, girl. t /anvil
