(This runs counter to my naturally modest and exceedingly self-effacing nature, plus the picture shows the full effect of months of eating like a starving hog and hours of sweaty frolic on the Argentine pampas. I’ll have you know I’m exercising daily and eating stuff like turkey in hopes of getting reacquainted with my actual chin.)

I think you’ve still got a bankable script there, Nance. The Amish are hot. Forget the TV show. Just tweak your story a bit. How about if instead of the girl being an au pair she’s a young single mom. And while she’s in town visiting with her son the kid sees a guy murdered.

Nevermind.
Good column though. Expresses the same sense of enjoyment of the class that came through in all your phone calls. I think you should pack up your fellowship and your screenplay and head west. Apply to USC or UCLA.
